Computer Science is unironically easier than most engineering, besides civil

I'm in the middle of the fucking road in my life and you're giving motivation. I'm stuck between two choices, pursue programming (what I want to do) and another career (that pays well and is guaranteed work, but I fucking hate it).

I live in so-cal and will work ANYWHERE as a first job. I have my expectations so low, I'd be happy working for 60k a year if it meant I got to be a swe. I kind of understand the game of getting hired and I know it just comes down to ultimately being a numbers game and really pushing until you land the first job. I cannot stress enough, I am not picky at all. I will work anywhere as long as it ultimately means I can move up to a decent wage in the distant future.

Is the breaking into an entry level job that hard right now during covid? I was thinking of speedrunning a BS in comp sci and having that to help me break into interviews, but I know it's 1000x easier to just make connections. I want job security and that's about it.

I don't think I'm incapable of making it into SWE, but I am fucking lazy and a procrastinator and I am so scared of failure that I don't even try. I've been my ultimate enemy my entire life.

My second career path that I'm currently on is looking like 2.5 years out from now, I would be landing a job, but the material is dreadful and I cannot stand the idea of living that life.

Any advice? You seem like an intelligent person. I have no excuses and if I pursue coding, I will go 100%, I can't fathom fucking around and neeting any longer, I am going insane. I want to make it and live in a nice fucking house and develop a skill. I want to be good at something, I am a competitive person when I'm thrown into a specific mindset.

Unironically really sad, that's why I say mass suicide will certainly happen. Not only because of BTC skyrocketing in value without correcting, but because of their assets and money becoming worthless.

Why does that make me seethe? One dip and they’ll be out, though.
