I have been trying to learn to code for years. I really suck at it. Some people pick it up more easily than others, but for me it’s so hard I actually think I may be retarded.
If you learn logic and the basics of computer engineering, coding at a productive enough level to get a starter job is easy to learn. If you don't have an exceptional grasp of fundamental logic, coding will be an exercise in frustration.
Coding is basically blue collar now with the lexical flexibility of high level languages and essentially unlimited computing power for many commercial applications.
Doing things like embedded devices, 3D rendering engines, designing Boeing airliners with diversity as a priority over airworthiness, those are the old school engineering jobs that are for serious nerds so even bothered to remember things like differential equations or linear algebra.
I appreciate that help. Any tips for a complete idiot on where to get started?
Each time I start again, I feel optimistic, and then get stuck on something like example = example.example
I find it hard to get my brain around stuff like that. I felt accomplished once I figured out what the % operator was doing and the number += 1 incrementation. These things are probably easy for ordinary people.
Anyway, you may not be able to help me. But I do appreciate whatever you might be able to share.
I'll be pedantic and say that tangible generally means you can touch and it has a physical existence. I wouldn't consider td.win to be a tangible thing. Unless you are talking about a hard drive. In my experience, there's something special about working with your hands that you can't get from coding.
I'm a working chef for 30 years. I'm good too, committed. But I lost my job with all this fear.
I'm looking to maybe find something less pedantic, less tangible... and fortunately I still have my hands if I can't.
Good luck to all of us.
Idk why you're being downvoted. 3 people too good for honest manual labor don't realize you can make bank with the neverending demand.
We'll always need proficient mechanics, electricians, plumbers, construction, truckers, farmers. 100% the reason we're not a third world craphole.
Anything that diverts the High School-to-College pipeline away from Universities is always a good thing.
You don't have to go to a 4-year University just to have a chance (no guarantee) of getting a good paying job & career.
Besides, you can save yourself the hassle of not getting brainwashed by liberals, saddled with student loan debt, and then demanding taxpayers pay off your debt.
The difference is that joke schools like ITT tech, Devry, Uni-of-Phoenix still saddled you with student debt because you could apply for FAFSA, which gives Federal Aid to 'qualified' institutions.
"Qualified" is very loosely defined. 😒
Getting certifications/apprenticeships from reputable companies means putting their names on the line saying "this is exactly the skills we're looking for" when evaluating someone's job application. You're supposed to come out with hands-on experience (that should've been taught in Universities), so you can hit the ground running on Day 1.
No more "can't find qualified graduates" excuses. At least that's the idea...
If I were in charge of higher education at the federal level I'd expand DANTES and/or CLEP so you can get a complete degree by testing out of everything instead of just the lower level classes. Also make the exams taxpayer-funded and proctored in normal public schools so the educational institutions get nothing.
That would give people a way out of the reeducation camps and not enrich rent-seeking educational establishments. Certification, not indoctrination.
Clep and dantes tests are the only reason I have my BA degree. They were (still are?) free to military. I took as many as I could. Only studied for a few of them, never failed one. I probably saved tens of thousands $ and countless hours of drivel from a leftist professor.
Bear in mind, the economy will NEVER be as good as it was pre invasions.
Manufacturing jobs died because the currency was killed and basic costs went through the roof(not to mention onerous regulations added).
Oh... and you do realize college(or rather the higher education bubble) props up the economy...right...?
To quote my previous comment...
College pumps up unemployment numbers because if you are in school you are not counted as unemployed.
If the funding stops, you would see a massive surge in unemployment with further increased work pool for noncollege jobs.
This would hurt Trump's base as a good amount of them have noncollege educated jobs.
In fact, this is probably why he just let the bubble continue(that and he does not want to galvanize millions of students who do not vote)
If you want wages to go down when millions of students stop college and try applying for noncollege jobs...well...I hope you are prepared to see how "good" this economy is.
This above all else. Until we get these states to stop restricting free enterprise the entire economy is going to depend on PPP money. They are fucking killing the whole thing.
That’s exactly it. And the most insidious Part is the economy is extremely complex and is severely damaged from all this picking and choosing of what’s locked down and what’s not. Major industries are suffering right now and nobody outside of them realizes it. Every day we stay in this path more damage (possibly irreparable) will occur.
I assume that the appliance repair people tend to repair primarily for other businesses? It seems that nowadays repairing a home appliance is more expensive than buying a new one.
Friend of mine owns a small chain of successful restaurants. He's told me multiple times it's never worth fixing something. The repair people come can never come for at least a week, they charge an arm and a leg, and then they usually end up breaking something else and you need to call them again next week. The downtime, lost sales, lost productivity, possibility of spoiled food you have to throw away, plus the negative customer experience that is so difficult to shake off, isn't worth it. Just always have two of everything you need on site, and buy a new one when one breaks. If it's under warranty, have them try to give you a new one under warranty if possible.
I'd love to take some classes at my local Vo-Tech, but most cost over $1,800 per course. I think my money would be better spent on equipment and a few books.
They seem to have to remodel the building and replace the sign out front every year.
Wow. The site actually looks like a great collection of information.
The path to actually fixing most of the issues in the nation involves getting as close to full employment as possible, and finding a way to reduce single-parent families.
Building resources to empower self-improvement is the way forward, and I'm very happy to see the administration trying to tackle this problem.
I don't envy anyone in the fashion industry. That industry is next to impossible to break into unless you have a lot of money or you get incredibly insanely lucky.
With that being said, why not just start small. $200k is a lot. Maybe start online only or with a very small boutique store.
Man, I've been wandering aimlessly for the past five years when it comes to career options. I always just give up easily and never commit myself to any job or training. I don't know what to do.
2 and 4 year colleges have caused so much harm and wasted trillions of dollars over the years. Take away the current academic model and I wonder how many of the brainwashed Inglish Socialists/Antifa would be rioting on the streets now?
You know what would be amazing? If a decrease in college admissions led universities to actually have to compete. It's entirely possible for most universities to cut administrative costs by massive amounts. And university admins may be leftists, but they also have a self-preservation instinct.
I'm not naive; I know it's a long shot. But the strength of American universities has always been in solid, brilliant faculty (especially in STEM fields), because unlike grade school teachers, they don't have to take education courses. And if I were a university administrator with any power, that's what I'd focus on. Cut costs everywhere else, anywhere possible. Focus on acquiring the absolute best faculty. You'll be more competitive and attractive to the best and brightest students, and then you eventually end up with a solid base of alumni, which is the bedrock of your donor field.
The place where I work has been open the whole time, essential due to who our customers are. I'm doing FAR FAR better than I ever have done before, especially from 2009 to 2017.
That said, I think some changes are coming and there may be new opportunities even during this transition period.
No thanks - I think I'll obtain my dance studies degree for 300k then ask my debt be abolished and sit at home doing nothing.
Make sure you have your Orange Man Bad twitter account fired up. Also make an appointment for a septum piercing.
Let’s not forget at least 1 tattoo in a location that will be never obscured by traditional clothing.
And the most unnatural of hair colors
And enough piercings to set off a metal detector.
You'll be absolutely fine once you find your spouse who has a degree in social gender warrior studies with an emphasis in pay gaps.
Love is all you need. It really is.
Yep thats what Disney told me, so it must be true
Femenist Dance Theory
I should be able to do whatever I want and get exactly the same stuff as people who work hard!
Why take dance studies when you can take...
FeMiNiST DaNcE StUdIeS!
LEARN TO CODE!
Instructions unclear, built an automated, self containing energy farm using rudimentary ingredients and qBASIC.
Same here but realized playing Fallout 76 only returned caps.
I’d rather not turn into a robot; learn a trade and get some physical exercise 💪
Build something tangible
thedonald.win is plenty tangible. Who do you think built it?
Some of us pedes don't understand coding.
But we do understand it's just a meme.
Respect to all who work on the foundations of the country. Whether it is trades, agriculture, forestry, mining...all of you are truly essential.
I have been trying to learn to code for years. I really suck at it. Some people pick it up more easily than others, but for me it’s so hard I actually think I may be retarded.
Don't feel bad, that crap gives me headaches.
Going for a business management degree makes me feel alot happier. Plus a wide variety of jobs to choose from.
I'm a self taught coder trying to learn to compose music, and I feel like a completely hopeless retard at learning to compose music.

You can code and do yoga shitlord
I know how to code, I want to learn how to build! Sign me up!
JOBS NOT MOBS
Anything that diverts the High School-to-College pipeline away from Universities is always a good thing.

This should concern us ... there should be no "debt" for progression of the human mind..
What is different between this and the joke schools like iTT tech ?

We should be encouraging people to go to trade schools after high school.
Make Journeymen Great Again!!!
Not in this trash economy...

Is there a place on that website to find an uncucked Congress?
404.html should help lmao
Stop trying to work reeeeeeeeeeeee you’re killing grandma
HA. We went to visit grandma to fix her PC (relevant username lol) and she told us to take off the masks, she didn't care.
Grandma lived a long life. If she dies she dies. I'm not going to suffer for the rest of mine.
How about this:
#OpenTheFuckingCountry
This above all else. Until we get these states to stop restricting free enterprise the entire economy is going to depend on PPP money. They are fucking killing the whole thing.
No retraining is going to work, no jobs program is going to work - if the fucking country is closed for business.
Just common sense.
It's time to lead and open the country .. by EO, if necessary. America is careening toward a Second Great Depression .. over the goddam FLU.
That’s exactly it. And the most insidious Part is the economy is extremely complex and is severely damaged from all this picking and choosing of what’s locked down and what’s not. Major industries are suffering right now and nobody outside of them realizes it. Every day we stay in this path more damage (possibly irreparable) will occur.
sounds like Vox staffers are gonna find something new. LEARN TO CODE
Appliance repair is a very good paying job. Learn to use a multimeter.
I assume that the appliance repair people tend to repair primarily for other businesses? It seems that nowadays repairing a home appliance is more expensive than buying a new one.
Mostly warranty work but COD jobs are more lucrative. It just depends on the appliance.
Friend of mine owns a small chain of successful restaurants. He's told me multiple times it's never worth fixing something.

Is this the skill based and not degree based executive order he signed recently?
its related i think
Yup. I looked at the site and it does state it's a partnership with the companies who were at the exec order signing.
I think this is different. That EO is here if you want to take a look:
https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/executive-order-modernizing-reforming-assessment-hiring-federal-job-candidates/
This is absolutely a step in the right direction. Some government positions need a degree, but many do not.
People who work good jobs are less likely to vote Democrat.
If 200k/yr is a good job I guess I chose poorly in life. Make a measly 70k...
I feel ya man. Am completely content in life being middle class. No regerts.
Don't read twitter comments unless you want eye cancer
Noooo! Get gender studies degrees! Nooooooooo!
Just imagine typing up your resumé. You'd have to include an entire section titled "ways I am oppressed."
Fuck Apple.
Agreed, they are helping the enemy. Fuck those traitors.

Now I just want alot of the leftist shithole colleges to shut down.

Anyone know where I can go to get capital to start my own business?
Could trump help me? I need about 200K to start my online and retail store front.
I want to sell high end menswear using my Neapolitan connections in Italy.
I have a great credit score but I don't want to use my house as collateral being that I just purchased my first home this year.
Do you already have a business plan typed up?
Business plan:
Open business
Sell things
Profit
Think I'm good to go now?
Too complicated. Too many steps.
Revised Business Plan
Better?
Dont just stand there; take my money!!
Yes I do, it's 38 pages long
I don't envy anyone in the fashion industry. That industry is next to impossible to break into unless you have a lot of money or you get incredibly insanely lucky.
With that being said, why not just start small. $200k is a lot. Maybe start online only or with a very small boutique store.
well I wanted to half online and half retail store.. it's just NYC where I live is so expensive!
I wonder if twitter will auto ban accounts that troll with “find something new” just like they did for “learn to code”?
Learn to code.
Apple & IBM? Yuck
I’m changing careers right now and I’m a scared and excited ! Wish me luck Pedes
Umm, but I have a dick and I'm Caucasian. I guess that rules me out.
Would be nice if I wasn't under more or less house arrest from terrified COVID-fearing family members.
Hey Ivanka, I'm going to DM you my digits. Holla atcher boy because I'm ready for a new career path!
No #learn2code campaign?
One of options is web developer 😂
Man, I've been wandering aimlessly for the past five years when it comes to career options. I always just give up easily and never commit myself to any job or training. I don't know what to do.
You won't find anyone who can help you with that. That has to come from within.

Universities, come talk to me. I have ideas.
Listen to how well she speaks. What's not to love!!
“In partnership with IBM”
*clicks link to search for listings”
“None”
....good start
Wow she's faker than a three dollar bill....
Something about the government helping you find a job just doesn't sit well with me
Wait... Apple? IBM? Is this LEARN TO CODE?!
f course! They stopped all the H1B1s so these companies are in DESPERATE need for workers.
Don't let your memes be dreams pedes! Learn to code is now a real website!
Go tell your husband to start taking his red pills before he goes to sleep at night again.
The left is dead, it's over.
Democrats to Black Americans: You still owe us reparations. We want four years and $100,000.
Shouldn’t this just link to Mike Rowe Works?
I want a job like the one Ivanka has.
Ivanka is doing her best to channel Gandalf and IT'S WORKING!

Now let’s do Find a Commie
THIS IS HUGE! Yes more of this let's fill the best jobs with the best workers, AMERICAN WORKERS 🇺🇸
Nope, I'm going with Sly Joe Biden, he told me that he'd bring back the jobs, not Drumpf. REEEEEEEEEEEE.
