i've sent you the developer survey of stackoverflow for 2018 in pm

these days you gotta figure out what kind of programmer you want to be

If your going for web-applications like i am its HTML,CSS,Sass,Js, Typescript, SQL, MySQL, JSON, React, Angular, Node.js, PHP, Python, C#, Java Bootstrap (and other css frameworks), Wordpress, Typo3. If you are Full-Stack

that troll guy seemed somewhat sensible sad we can't get along and understand each other zzz

I saved your comment in my discord for archiving

which troll?

he got kicked I think he was talking stupid though so kinda deserved it

fair enough

@Denno seems like much but if you do one step at a time, you slowly progress into your profession. Starting with HTML, CSS, JS and learn an OOP-language meanwhile for like 2-3 months. After that you can start going for databases like MongoDB and MySQL aswell as Software Design Patterns. Then you can slowly bring a first real world app without a framework. After that frameworks are your butter and bread most of the time, so learning MVC, dependency injections and such (OOP-Design-Patterns)

thank you for this

I need to look into the industry more

I am finding it hard to maintain my drive.

The good thing for you i guess. The internet is full of courses for that. udemy often offers courses for 11€ that are giving you 28h video lessons for a whole language as a bootcamp. Python bootcamp there is really good

So if you can maintain your determination to coding, you can actually reach a decent level of programming within a year

I can show you what companies are looking for when hiring so you could setup a portfolio. I learn too much about social engineering in my traineeship 😄

hahahaha

I'll take that up

Troll guy was so crazy unfortunately

@Denno Don't you benefit from diversity bullshit?

no

unless its on shore teaching in Australia

My market is predominantly overseas. Plus I am still socialised and treated as male 60% of the time. Most people use my male name

Far enough.

When I teach children I use my male gender

Yeah.

Rightio...

that's because they are Chinese clients

culturally they don't accept trans or gay

I got a new job. Application, phone call, interview, and hired all in the same day.

I've seen a lot of trans Chinese through like random gifs and stuff online.

I guess it's getting there, so it might benefit you later on.

possibly

Excellent work though with the new job

You're kind of stuck in the West.

Yeah. My wages are kind of sucky, though. A fraction of what I'm used to, but my current company is dissolving, so... What can you do, aye?!

NDT is getting more popular. You could look into that. A lot of NDT techs charge AUD 150 per hour.

Sup everyone?

Sup.

Any good books you guys recommend? Right now I'm reading Body Language by Navarro and I'm waiting for Robert Greene's new book called Human Nature

The Laws of Human Nature

Robert Greene has a new book
