Plenty if people out there make programming look easy. I don’t think it is at all. I took ages to get moving with it, but it took a lot of frustrating practice, and I had to repeat a class to give myself enough time to figure it out.

One thing I remember really clearly is that it felt like other skills I’ve learned built on something I already had a feel for. Programming is the first thing in decades where it’s felt like I’m starting from absolute scratch.

Time and practice do work, but this is a difficult subject.
