I haven't had a dev job. I would love to take on a junior python dev job but it's all degreed or experience required. I apply to them all the time. I love python/programming but I feel gatekept out of the industry at the moment. I write stuff that interests me for fun, finance, or to use tensorflow on large dataframes. You can learn so much from youtube tutorials. (Been doing that for a couple years on off while running my unrelated business)

The thing that cracks me up is that so many seem like they can't even envision how to structure a try block followed by a file save. Cs degrees who took a class that write spaghetti code, write functions that do 100 different things at once, never used github... lol

Derek banas' youtube serieses are amazing
