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.

how old are you @legendpinnen

@Happy Humble Hermit Same, I just realized too late that I would be more fulfilled teaching and it is literally faster to finish and then get a masters than to swap majors. I really have been wanting to ask you about your experiences with getting your degree and the system though. So I can know what I am getting into. (I plan to get certified and then teach abroad though.)

14

is it shallow to want to learn stuff in order to work at one of the big 4? i love making my own projects but the amount of pride i'd hold myself with working at somewhere like amazon or google would be awwesome

that's one of the reasons i want to go to uni

@JDB I would not say it is shallow, but it is unwise.

@legendpinnen then you're in the best position, start young and you can get into the industry. for the older guys everyone in the games industry already has a decade on them

There are so many more amazing companies out there.

It really matters more as to why you want to work with the big 4.

@Kragt yeah i lost time switching but i just bit the bullet. i'll probably go more in depth on the system as i get more experience, ive talked about it a bit on the tfm show. i plan to go into online teaching tho so i can work from home and get paid for multiple courses

can someone fix my nick?

deep down i think i only want to work there becuase i want to prove to myself that i can be a great engineer

@Happy Humble Hermit Sweet. If I am ever awake when you do a show I want to call in. I might have a few stories worth sharing.

Do it fam

and be accepted into a company that is so hard to get into

awesome, ill put announcements in discord

if youre in europe its really early

@JDB Then do great things. Prove to yourself by doing. The women who work for google probably arent great. They might be compotent or even good but you got to put up with them to work in the big 4.

You don't need google, amazon or whoever to do great things.

like here in sweden it starts at around 4

yeah

also fix my nick ffs
