    The best way learn on your own time is to find a simple project that excites you and make it work.

    You don't even have to worry about installing python (for example) anymore. https://colab.research.google.com

    This. I hate coding and dont know any specific language well, but just tinkering with something to make it work is great. I've been doing this with a 3d printer, super fun.

    Coding sucks. Don't do it if you don't like it. Forcing yourself into that profession is cancer

    I don't actually understand what coding is.

    I get that it's typing lines to make things happen(?) but I don't get why those things happen or what different languages mean or where you go to type those things.

    The closest I ever came to learning was when I made a video game intro on RPG Maker back in college.

    My friends brother in law was coding and showing off his code at my friend's bachelor party. It was super lame. None of us are coders, we didn't care.

    If you have a good idea but are being stopped by your ability to code, it's probably not a good idea

    There is almost no subject in the world that has more free and useful resources to teach yourself than coding. Tens of options for every single possible learning style for every language. Videos, courses, homework, lectures, games. Whatever. Paying for coding classes is one of the big WTF things unless you need the incentive of "well I spent money on this so I better do it".

    Nah, it isn't. For every product you can think of to code it's probably out there already. If you don't get lucky and market yourself well you can be a coding genius and still unemployed and poor

    "I don't understand the fundamental limitations of contemporary or historical algorithmic programming and am too dumb to realize that one of the largest areas of current STEM research is in modifying how we tell computers what to do within the framework of existing languages in ways that were once never thought possible." - D44k 2019

    How are you deriving that from what I'm saying? Fiye implied he has some million dollar discord replacement idea, either that or is jealous of discords success, not totally sure.

    No amount of coding genius is going to make a product with as much publicity as discord. There are more soft and hard skills required than the ability to code. Coding something like discord is the easy part.

    Sometimes I feel like your are wilfully obtuse
