The only real reason to learn this is basically to work on already-existing projects that were done with Angular 1.

really?

That's what it looks like to me.

I guess I could be wrong but this doesn't look like the kind of Angular syntax I know.

And it explicitly says AngularJS.

AngularJS = Angular 1.

I'll ask about it, I still have plenty to go in the angular library module I'm on, hopefully it becomes more current so if i need help it will be easier

www.angular.io

This is the latest Angular.

ahh ok, yeah this is angular one then, clearly stated that this is angularJS

interenting, didnt know that , thanks

Are you able to DDoS automated online phone services? It makes theoretical sense but does anyone know if it's actually possible?

I can find out.

Can anyone @here speak to the value of taking a programming class? I'm interested to learn some basic programming but I wouldn't consider myself tech savvy and I doubt I could learn through reading or watching videos on my own

@StrawberryArmada this is a good, common conversation so let's keep it public.

First: what do you want to be able to do with programming? Be as specific or general as you like. It's a broad skillset.

I have a computer science degree and let me tell you it didn't really come naturally to me the first time I took a class (almost failed). Anything that requires a lot of skill requires patience and practice

I say "let's keep it public" because normally I would do a voice chat.

@StrawberryArmada talk to Lukas bro

Creating bots and doing web design would be useful

If that even involves programming much

I honestly don't know

Why do you think you can't learn on your own?

I've tried to learn stuff like Python and Java myself with books and videos but

I think I lack the inclination to get it without more guidance

What don't you "get"? Honest question.

I have the option to take a class at school

I really don't understand what programming languages even are

I don't know how people figure what to put in and where to put it

I can't really tell if there's supposed to be some big list of premise commands

I getcha.

Or if people invent stuff and the computer just figures it out somehow

I don't even know how computers work really

OK, let me start by saying that "knowing how to program" is very much a continuum.

It's a huge skillset. For example, I make applications primarily for automated analysis and visualization of scientific data.

I don't know nuffin about languages like C and Clojure, and I don't need to right now

Similarly I know very little about networking

the "college question" when it comes to programming is a tricky one

I went the STEM route. I have two masters' degrees in engineering. But I didn't really know anything about coding until I got out of school

I taught myself. But those skills that I taught myself are used literally 10X more than anything I learned in school

I probably could have skipped all that college altogether
