I don't work in the industry but I still code as a hobby after studying software engineering at University where I learned Java.

I am addicted to learning new languages and it stops me ever being productive and have enough knowledge in one area to feel confident going for a job in coding.

Over the years I have learned bits of SQL, C, Perl, Haskell, VBA and done a lot of JavaScript including Node/Express. Yet I have zilch to show for it. I am currently having to stop myself from starting out with R as I know it will distract me for six months.

I plan to make 2020 the year I finally produce something 😆
