How to learn to code (quickly and easily!) 

Finally some informative video without showing off his…

That's the difference between fixed vs growth thinking. The latter is far more useful, accurate, and inherent in more successful people.

@@rmontgomery4340 Can you give us some examples of terrible advice TechLead has given?

Look who's winning now. Having a lot of time for yourself and with enough curiosity can get you far

They are actually doing you a favor not inviting you to "distractions", now you can focus on being successful unlike them

@@DraxTheDestroyer lol cool people still become successful and in easier ways too . That’s a fact of life

That’s not true. Some people would rather have quality than quantity in friends. And parties are overrated - if I wanted to watch people grandstand and/or vomit, you can get that online all day.

Wow... I really need to feel motivated again, I lost interest through the struggle of learning self taught

You got discord or anything?

Can you recommend certain languages or tools that an aspiring self-taught data analyst might need? I just started on SQL and am planning to learn Python next. Is that enough to get me started?

@@RR-ho3td absolutely, learn python and the proper libraries available for your tasks, get comfortable with the basics then go straight to doing projects, I would say to don't even bother following yt videos doing full projects, you won't learn anything, doing a project yourself can be hard and confusing, but it get easier over time The tools and workflows will be presented to you as you develop your skills, laser focus and keep trying!

So true. I had the same experience, struggling with topics until I forced myself to sit down and eat sleep and breathe it, and then break through that initial barrier. After that new doors opened all over the place.

Yes, pacing and talking to self in the head, that’s how I solve problems in my code. You might look like a spectre though if you do that outside in a quiet neighborhood in the night.

Doctors always mention themselves as being a doctor in the first sentence they type. But you differ.

Ok but what do you do with it once you know how to code. As a person who is just beginning it is not very incentivizing if I can't see what the end result/benefit will be.

Age of Reason The end result will be that you are code literate, understand the nature of the beast and are able to bend the machine to your will. How much bending depends on how deep your understanding is.

Age of Reason Why would you choose such a name like "Age of Reason" and at the same time whine that the road is long and hard and that you are already discouraged just because you can't see around the first bend of it?

Tell me how did you use the knowledge that you just learned to build a project as you were a beginner. You said that you just started your first software job without having any experience in development but you also said that you are now learning your 7th language. How can you know 6 language without having any software job experience? Teach me please!

How are you learning your 7th computer language? You said I quote "without having any professional experience" .If you were on second or third language I could believe that.But 7th? come on.

Ok on it

I’m in the same boat kinda. I wanted to branch out and keep up with the direction society is going towards. However I want to keep a part time labor job at least just cause I absolutely love working with my hands and getting dirty.

@@WJGSix Working with your hands on your own projects is amazing. Working with your hands day after day until your body starts breaking down just because you have to pay the rent sucks.

same thing

Doing hard manual labor is a hell of a motivator. I had a chance to pick between doing a hard job and an easy going job, I picked the hard one because I knew it would propel me in the right direction long term.Having a stable, easy job can make you really lazy, and unwilling to take any risks.

Indeed. Focus is a scarce resource these days.

I don't know if it's just me, but most companies I worked for had an extreme overhead in communication channels (which I poersonally don't like). Something like confluence, jira, email, hipchat, skype, strider, slack. It's overwhelming to me and really affects my overall productivity. I don't know if a company can force you to use them all but I have drastically cut down those channels and I am only available on email. That has improved my productivity drastically.

I find the same. Email only. Pretend to not be able to understand IRC and skype and all that. "I guess I'm just too old for that new-fangled stuff. Now Email, that's the cat's pajamas!"

I'd love to replace other chats with IRC. I could run this in my terminal next to neomutt. I'd be in bliss! But for starters I stick to email only.

just delete social media, im 5weeks in

Don't knock GED holders. Some of us dropped out of high school because we immersed ourselves too far into computer culture. Only to later pick ourselves back up, get accepted into a prestigious university for engineering, and even become CTOs. Also I'd note your average loser usually doesn't put enough effort in to pass the GED, don't forget it's a test of the entire high school curriculum weighed against the scores of high school graduates...

I didn't intend to generalize GED holders; I was only providing a specific counter-example to TechLead's illustration of a successful software engineer. My point was that there may be a correlation between social activity and success with CS, but it's weak at best. Further, promoting this image contributes towards the lack of diversity we have in tech.

Exactly! I'm a full time game developer and CS graduate but I still lead a healthy and social lifestyle. It's just a balancing act - you don't have to sacrifice everything to learn to code, but he is right in that you have to be able to sit in front of the computer for many hours at a time.

Introverts have a big advantage over extroverts in this field otherwise you would see more diverse types in computer science. Most tech people are nerds because you have to be analytical and if you are not of that personality type you will struggle to understand tech which requires lots of thinking before doing. Much like an architect who needs to design the things before it is built. No experimental ideas like in art because you will end up wasting a lot of time if the thing you built doesn't work due to bad design. Extroverts want social interaction and validation from others instead of finding validation from within themselves. So they will have less time to think and be on their own compared to the introverted guys who actually feel comfortable alone.

I'm introvert more than extrovert, but haven't done so well in software due to having more of an artist's mindset with a handful of scientist. Rigorous systematic engineering following formal procedures at a severe level of details just doesn't fit my brain. Experimental ideas is what I'm all about. But creating software is how a lot of things get done these days - image processing, procedural textures, computer vision, 3D animation, not to mention physics research. Yet somehow, I have managed to avoid becoming homeless. Really, the solution is to marry a rich lady!

Me too I love gaming. Only VNs though (and a little bit of Zelda).

Sameeee

I just think that it’s exciting to make something original lol not just with codes but every language

That's some serious motivation you have

I don't know if I could recommend trying to learn software development by googling little pieces of information. You wouldn't even know what to search for.

Know this is a few years down the line, but even with a 4 year degree in computer science/info systems etc, no one gives a shit. You MUST, and I mean MUST have a portfolio, or at the very least a project that demonstrates you have done something or you wont get the time of day from a software development recruiter.

I started college with zero knowlodge when I was 28. And that was rough. I wished I informed myself better and learned the basics before I started because it felt like a crashcourse on every topic without even knowing how to write code. It felt like I always was falling behind the rest of the class. So start that project you are talking about to get the feeling already, and see what all the possibilities are.

@@CHodor187 Do you finished your college? If yes, were you able to learn programming there or do you learned more by yourself?

Аитор Хара I am the same as you, are you full time teaching yourself coding or past time with a day job, do you mind sharing your experience with me?

Hello Jason, of course. For me the opportunity cost of my previous job was too high that I left it to take on different projects. Now I wake up more or less at the same time (6-7 am) and basically spend all day long with different tasks, such us learning how to code in Python, Machine Learning and other proficiencies through Coursera platform. My plan is to end up knowing html + Javascript and maybe CSS too as a way to develop web apps from the front-end up to the back-end, with a friend of mine who currently works as a big data engineer at a bulgue bracket. Both of us are tired of working for corporations. So far I couldn't be happier with this experience and what I've learnt. Hopefully you achieve your goals too and make something great

Аитор Хара it’s great to hear that and wish you best of luck! I am going to work like you. I am going to boot camp and trying to have a internship during or after that.

That's true about the CFA program, you don't get almost anything until passed level 3.

I'm learning this now. The hard way. I'm cs at the University. Struggling in HTML CSS and JavaScript. However, never been exposed to it either. Learned a lot however. But doubting myself due to my struggles

Nice, glad you liked it!

must be some fcking rich school u had there.

Steve, I absolutely do agree with your synopsis of Patrick's advice. Yes, one must be willing to sit and concentrate---Get up for a 'little' bit (for posture, etc. sake). I played the drums in bands for about 25 years and the same kind of 'dedication' was required --- being willing to 'isolate' oneself from other 'activities' and concentrate on getting something accomplished -- like getting skills 'up to snuff'--(whether the skills are drumming, dancing, or coding)...... For Patrick, I second Steve's assessment!!

I'm not sure if you're asking TECHLEAD/Patrick, or asking me? I got inspired because basically the opportunity was laid in front of me; my 6th grade bro bought old Atari800XL & he got a quick 'how to code' elementary-school library book when I was in 5th grade ... he didn't have interest other than Atari games, really - (I was putting in too much more straight hours of time at night than he could/would dedicate) so I bought it from him for $50, & was all set ... ready to make hangman, then role-playing games and moreover, quasi AI question/answer programs I made in 5th grade that would scan responses to conversational questions and recognize profanity my brothers would use, then responding accordingly while keeping count in order to warn "that's the 3rd expletive... I warned you!" ... w/escalated 'threat' ("I'll tell mom now") answers (I mean, I was in 5th grade, LOL). This turned into $ management program by middle school, & water-well drilling company code by high school. At that time, Bill Gates code was open enough to see and manipulate w/Ctrl & Break. So it was exciting to get a computer to do what I wanted, and I had the time to make it happen ... I'd spend all 'computer class' & then lunch thereafter on my own code. Plus that initial library book (my brother never returned) had exact code to manually type in ... which I could thereafter customize to learn what happened when I changed 'this' or 'that'. It was FUN!

That's a funny coincidence... I also started learning Basic around 9 years old on an Atari 800's, though I remember it being an XR instead of an XL; I think there where both models, but I may be wrong after 35 years between then and now. However, I had a preference for programing graphics, and used to make code that would draw fixed things on the graphics mode screen, and eventually learned to program the joystick/wheel inputs to move the cursor in a paint-like fashion before the boom of the mouse. I have to agree... it was FUN!
