The community is complete cancer, the language itself is passable.

Just going to point out that 'flyover country' is basically everything between New York and Los Angeles/Chicago. It's the redneck/hillbilly/white trash filled states that the "cultured elites" are too good to waste their precious time on. AKA middle America.

I stopped working on programming when I realized that the Jewish feds are already all over my pc.

java

I hope these globohomo journos do learn java. What a miserable language. Not only will they struggle mightily because of their lack of a mathematical background, but they will learn a language that only makes them marketable to legacy application developers / large industrial systems, which is would be far more miserable to them than working at a silicon valley startup (none of which use java).

I remember all these guys 20 years back telling me JavaScript was a joke, Java was going to revolutionize the Internet! Yeah, applets are the bomb. I wonder if I could slip an old school applet into a page these days?

It heavily depends on how your brain is structured. Some people pick up a programming language for the first time, everything is logical to them, and they can write medium-sized programs on pure instinct. That requires a certain mix of logical thinking and creativity. If you lack too much in either department, either maths or the arts would be more your thing.

it requires high linguistic and high logical intelligence, which is indeed a somewhat rare combo. But it's got a mystique around that that isn't entirely deserved, it's like learning anything else.

I've often wondered about that mystique thing. I work in an extremely mathematical engineering field, and while many of my coworkers are better at math and smarter than I am, they all struggle with programming stuff that seems brainlet-tier child's play to me.

Even really smart, technical people have a lot of trouble grasping code, so I guess I can see why coding has this mystical aura.

It’s not. Children can do it to some extent. It just takes a certain direction of interest. I once worked with this jew contractor who did graphics design, 3D animation, he just acted like learning to code was something that would be no big deal for him to learn, but I know the designer type simply doesn’t think in the way that makes for a good programmer.

I really think my thing ought to be suicide tbh but I'm still here instead. I guess my thing is being useless and a coward, but for some reason we can't have a gigantic war that I can die pretending I could stand next to you without hating myself in a world where you actually need to be able to do things. At least I don't work at Buzzfeed.

It's true, I'm a creative type. Tried to start learning basic HTML and CSS via codeacademy to later move on to something more serious but I couldn't even get past that. I basically had to force myself to sit there and go through it but my mind kept wandering off. You really have to have a basic interest in this stuff.

That's exactly what's stopping me from studying programming. I'm so burned out with life itself from all the humiliation and rejection I had to endure throughout my entire life that I'm NEETing it out to the max and my aim is to be as much of a useless parasite as possible - and coding is a useful skill, so that goes out of the window.

learn to code

I fucking hate this meme (in the original form of course). People will type out some fizz-buzz shit in Javascript or Python and think that's all there is to "coding". Programming is a craft, it takes years to master, you have to be mindful of speed and memory, carefully pick your languages (yes, plural), data structures and algorithms. It is absurd to think that someone can just transition from a completely unrelated field to programming like it's changing your clothes.

As if some 46 y/o dude trying to support his family has time to learn javascript

Exactly.

However, I do believe that everyone should know the basics of programming and shell scripting, but only in the same way that everyone should know how to use a screwdriver and be able to do basic maintenance around the house, not that everyone needs to be a mechanic. Most people don't know anything beyond how to press shiny buttons in the GUI and are a completely illiterate slave to the (((software manufacturers))).

You can do a lot with just that.
