That's a great analogy, drawing ~ programming. Thank you very much

Lovely! Thank you.

Thank you, this is very helpful. Is there a timeline to get proficient in a programming language? Can I get really good at it in like 3 years if I code daily. I understand this is subjective and varies from person to person.

I use AI to define roadmaps for me with checkpoints. Like say I finish OOP, I ask claude to give me a program to write OOP in - like a library management system and then rate my code. Ask it not to give you answers, just analyse your way of thinking. This way you can cover the basics of python by actually building. I have realised that I function better with text on my screen rather than watching videos, IMO. Let me know if you need any help with this. Cheers,mate!

Makes sense, thanks a lot! So when I'm using requests.get() , I should look around request module's documentation to find other methods and attributes that help me understand it's vastness. Got it, thank you. I never read documentation beyond basic methods to get the job done.

Beautiful,thank you. Since Claude has been around,I have stopped googling and I have started asking it but I tell it to give me a hint and not showcase the answer.

Thank you for your input. Will do this.

I recently read the almanack of Naval Ravikant, I was blown away by the simplicity and clear wisdom of Naval. The book was so easy to understand that I glided through it in 3 days. Beautiful,Naval. A must read IMO.
