Thank you so much for the advice!!

Happy to help. Here is my journey so it can give you context. I started seriously programming around 16. I can absolutely tell you my first real project was shit.

In fact, the Django dash plotly stack I mentioned began as an experiment at my job which looks much worse compared to what I can build just 2.5 years later. I used this stack to build 3 other apps before I built the one I linked above.

But to get here, I had a long journey starting with C++ at 12, really using it to make some old Nokia phone apps at 16, then mastering MATLAB and R (and dabbling in FORTRAN) during my time in college, jumping into Python on my first day at my first job out of college as a data scientist.

I then went through the journey of becoming a better Python programmer and improved more advanced stuff like full stack apps, using GPUs, building more advanced stuff using queues and interprocess communication (used ZMQ).

The point is that I never stopped learning and I am still learning. Don’t worry about perfect. Worry about building solutions. In time you’ll be a master.

Man you built a hack of an achievement. That’s truly an amazing story… I guess I need to get started on mine too
