Im a 21 year old boomer working at a rather big company, im mainly messing around with Java and Spring Boot projects to do some backend work. Feels good to not be a NEET anymore and have some sort of function in society, i feel like being slightly autistic is actually a good thing, since most people in this field got similar traits so you dont get bullied at all if you are socially awkward. Also its comfy to sit 10 hours a day in front of a computer and have free coffee and little pressure, learning things that actually interest you.

you stole my idea pajeet. I've posted it here a few times so don't try to deny it. Godspeed though, I don't have the time or motivation for it. You can always use metamask to verify accounts above a certain threshold. If you're really cool, you're forum will be tiered. Big wallets have access everywhere, but your mid-range accounts can't access whale forums. Nobody wants to keep their funds in Metamask for long though, so why not develop an erc20 token that acts as a key. This way they only need to hold the token in their metamask wallet after they've been verified the first time. This was my thinking anyway....

Same. Been programming for about 9 months. I only do it as a hobby. It gets more fun when you are able to more eloquently realize your ideas.
I would suggest not getting stuck in tutorials for too long though. Do something that interests you and solve some kind of problem you have. Do a lot of mistakes and pull a lot of hair. Start with basic stuff and build into a more complicated mess.
For example, I started making a Kanji-flashcard application in vanilla js, then I made the same app with vue, then I did the routing with node and connected a mongoose database. It's my personal tool to track errors and progress in learning Japanese! It's getting pretty useful for my own purposes at least.

Have you already given up on yourself? cause your life has barely started at 25. is it too late? of course not. how many year do you think it will take to become a competent programmer? how many years of life do you think you have left? how many years of wage cucking you got to look forward to? there's absolutely no reason you can't switch careers if that's what you want to do. I was 25 when I first started to learn programming.

it just takes a lot of practice. the most important class you'll take by far is on data structures and algorithms, so pay attention to that one. try to find a medium sized code base to plug into and spend a lot of time in, internship or whatever. you'll spend a lot of time getting nothing done, but you'll learn a lot navigating existing code.

It's amazing. I feel so lucky. As long as I get my work done I can dick around. Besides my boss no one around me knows what I'm doing so I can leave a terminal window and an editor open in one or two of my monitors and dick around on my third. Remote work is easy and nice, everyone thinks you're super smart and a boss. Also super casual compared to other careers.

If you're even a bit social you're ahead of at least 25% of other software engineers. Added benefit is you can work in literally every industry. You will never not have a job as long as you stay up to speed with the current languages/libraries and environments. And once you start learning a few languages picking up new ones becomes pretty easy.

I'm also just generally interested in the field. Computers run the whole world and it's nice to really understand what's going on. Having the right team and boss is important though. Working for a small start up in Silicon Valley now. It's three of us including my boss. Dude is amazing and has taken me under his wing. When starting out the right boss and team are super important.

Main advice, I could give you is don't be specialized, especially when you are starting out in industry. Guys that are specialized are usually much more unhappy than I am. Learn full stack web dev, networking, data science, IT, dba. It will make you immensely more useful to any team your on and really open up your career opportunities. It might seem like a lot but honestly most of those are very interrelated.

Learning Recs: Python, R, JavaScript (React/Node), AWS, Scala, Bash/Shell, and C/C++

It would take you about two-three years in industry to really learn how to use most of the above given the opportunity. You get that down you can work anywhere and easily make 150k+

>> No.10977664

>>10977536
Also best way to learn is give yourself a real project. All those coding academy sites and shit are a complete waste of time. For example, tell yourself you're going to build a website. You'll learn full stack development from spending hours reading stack exchange, online blogs, debugging your own code. That's how you actually learn to program.

When learning really abstract the problem out. Say you want to upload files to your website for example, just Google how to do that in your given environment. By spending time reading on different implementations of that feature you'll gain an intuitive understanding of the underlying process and the actual linguistic understanding in the implementation.

I just butted in, but in my already fully working prototype, 1 account per address, and the account is valid for a week. Also every token has a set of tiered forums. The accounts are just some json blob left in the localstorage so seamless to the user. They do have to sign a metamask message every week though. I guess someone could make a million accounts but I don't care, if your shitcoins whales are pajeets it's your fault.
