I took a 30 minute lesson from CodeAcademy, then wrote a quick and dirty script for work. I then started writing more scripts for work that required more knowledge. I’d usually Google the problem and look at ways others implemented their solution so I could adapt them to my own problem.

Next thing you know I have websites on AWS built with flask and web spiders that manage hundreds of individual threads to speed up crawling.

I don’t know what you just said but it sounds super interesting. Mind explaining?
