There is a charming and helpful YouTube personality, RealToughCandy, who makes videos geared towards people starting out in tech. She interviewed me and 5 other “self-learners” on self-learning in 2019.
I am providing the link to the article here just in case how we answered the questions could be of use to some of you “self-learners”!
I’ve been following realtoughcandy on Instagramand YT, I like her no nonsense, sometimes funny videos related to webdev and freelancing. (freelancer here too.)
I’ll follow you on Instagram. I’m @owel.codes there.
Thank you. I’m still climbing mountains, one step at a time, one day at a time.
It’s a never ending learning process, but if you enjoy learning, making stuff - it’s going to be fun.
You can combine a lot of disciplines together!
web frontend, backend, IOT, electronics, software, hardware, audio, music, etc.
Alas, it seems imagination is a pre-requisite to longevity and motivation. I went to a Meetup in San Diego hosted by ex-MySpace CTO Dmitry Shapiro and his new startup (goMeta–I highly recommend everyone to check out what these guys are doing) and he said that if you don’t have any ideas for apps then you probably shouldn’t be coding because your life will more-or-less be hell.
