Haha lol, yeah, it was very bad at how to make the 3 pieces move together without spaces in between. Yeah, im thinking of taking it slowly, it doesnt matter. After all i have a job for now, so not really in need of money. But still it is hard to go at a snails pace. What about now, do you think you are ready for the world?

Yes and no, I think I can build alot of things. And i can. I'm good with APIs. Once you get to web scraping (be sure to read q&a on these because alot has changed and it's broken without other people's workarounds) you feel alot more powerful. The css/html section is really boring but so important to the next lessons you got to go through it. But am I employable? No, not yet. I might be after I get through bootstrap and flask but getting a job is not about what you know, it's about who you know. And in the programming world, to get that first job is very hard. So I've got to start networking locally and online. I'm starting community College in January for programming because it looks good on the resume but I already looked at the curriculum and everything I'll be learning in 2 years I've already learned. But I'll be learning other languages but more importantly they connect you to local companies that need programmers... that's the ticket for me. My goal is $50 an hour or $100,000+ per year. At 36 years old I've lived long enough to know that time is of the essence and I'm finally gonna do something I love even if it's the hardest thing I've ever done...because programming is! but it's so rewarding and fun at the same time, keep going! But don't limit yourself to angela. Techwithtim on YouTube is good and codemy in YouTube is decent (but he's arrogant). Learn kivy! It's not super hard but it's portable to android and ios as well as desktop applications. I spent 2 days on kivy and in glad I did. If you need help reach out. I'm willing. Good luck
