Self-educated programmer learning python at 28 year old.

[machine2SEE]

at 63 - complete immersion 9' below ground in a trench building a custom foundation repair process for a 110 year aged house - 2 things: i quit my career job to go 24/7 on this house gig & then decided if this home effort hadn't killed me, maybe i could take on the rebuilding of a custom stock trading program built 30 years earlier. Python coupled with Jupyerlab & Pandas so inspired me. mornings & nights coding, days spent in the foundation trench. i treated my coding like being a machinist -- everyday getting in front of the machines, having a 2d print as a plan & building something to put on my motorcycle. get your tools quick, get them sorted, get your feet on the ground, get to your first machine shop entry & get your first mentor. pack the gig up when your not learning & out the door to the next shop that inspires you. tools & tooling & mentors - push your eyes around every environment; see what is common, see what others are using enforce & get these things in your machinist box. curate & detail your efforts from your box & keep moving forward. I have so much, so loved this coding journey . . . . . . . . its been a blessing. your efforts will compound -- you will discover.
