I've been coding for five years now professionally. About nine altogether. I've been a contractor my entire career and I've been looking for my next position since Aug of 2017.
Great article 👍🏾. Everything you said is spot on. I always kept coming back. I did help desk for ten years before/while learning to code. I found myself in the tutorial loop for a while. Or when I finally felt like I was ready to start, my mind would go blank and I wouldn't know where to begin. But I kept coming back because I initially wanted to develop android apps. This was back in 2011. Before there was an app for everything ten times over lol.
I tried so many books, but they all assumed I had a base level of knowledge that I just didn't posses at the time. I tried so many languages. Java was the one that made programming make sense to me even though everyone said python was more beginner friendly... Anyway, I fell in love with java and didn't want to do any XML,css,J's etc. That hurt me figure a looooong time. I didn't know what I didn't know. I wanted to be able to do everything with one language. It doesn't work that way. Then I found Go☺️😁😊. I could be biased because I'm a complete Google fanboy, but I love go.
