dude i have so many friends coming straight outta uni claiming to know all of web dev, java, c++, php, ruby and all that shit but have no personal projects --- without personal projects you can't really put on ur cv you know a language right?
but it covers most of what you need and has solutions to check with.
Oh you can
ye I can cook the less I need other the better
But projects are better.
Its like saying 'I can speak chinese' vs saying 'wo3 hui2 shuo1 han4yu3'
There are two golden rules.
1. Do
2. Ask
@JDB yea schools teach you good but they don't really have good projects in my experience. You gotta make your own projects
1 = practice, try, fuck up and learn.
2 = even if you have been doing this 30 years you will routinely look up the most basic shit. Get good at it.
Just today I had to verify that JS for getting the text from an submitted input box was .value and not .innerHTML
@shadowlessnexus i'm considering going to university to study computer science purely because the idea of following a set curriculum with like minded people seems appealing to me - yeah i found that too
I mean it's pretty good. Im in a small college cause it's cheaper. But you gotta do some stuff on your own
I'm a uni students.
Skip uni.
Yea i wouldnt go to a big uni for this
You are better just coding than getting a degree.
is coding good ?
Small college... Depends. But you can do this on your own.
It is good for getting paid son
It's fun. I like it.
Derek Banas is godly for learning Java, and if you want to do advanced shit try Siraj Raval
ok but what do i learn
theres like 100 languages
I hate it, but I am too far into it to get out now. (I graduate next semster) so I am just gonna swap my masters to teaching.
the thing with coding is that, as @Happy Humble Hermit said, does working as a software developer bring anything close to the level of enjoyment you get from creating you own proejcts?
It does not.
I hate it when I don't do it for myself.
i felt the same way @Kragt
But it pays really well if you get the right knowledge.
i made the decision to switch majors after finding mgtow and realizing i dont need the stem salary if im not getting married or having children
how flexible is it ?
like are you going to the office everyday
I want stem so I can work less and make more
@legendpinnen It depends on what you want to do with coding. If you want to work on games you might want to learn C# (the language of Unity game engine) or Python if you want to do machine learning.
That's just my preference really tho
if im doing coding it will probably be for games.
