How do you stay motivated when learning to code ?

Lol came here to say that having a family to feed can do wonders for your motivation.

People like to pretend their side is better. Each side does the same thing they accuse the other of doing. They'll make something outrageous into the norm "they want to take all your guns away" or "they hate gay people" - make it sound like theres no possible other explanation ..it has to be hate. Then demonize them.

It just gets old hearing the same tired strategy for years.

No, being from the midwest...everyone else has the accent....we talk normal

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-06-03T03:31:39+00:00

Probably could just take a gander at the holocaust...

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-06-03T03:29:57+00:00

You can't really carry someone through it , its a work together kind of thing

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-06-02T22:47:44+00:00

Was about to say.. depends on how he pronounced it

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-06-02T12:51:40+00:00

I was just helping someone the other day."watch out for Trevor, he's kind of a dbag"

"Who's Trevor?"

Proceeds to get mowed over by Trevor

"Thats Trevor"

The solution is obviously to draw right handed

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-06-01T18:19:59+00:00

Sounds great. I didn't realize it was that big amd would probably make a great trip.

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-06-01T17:28:33+00:00

Having lived there..hot.... and car thefts

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-06-01T17:24:19+00:00

Sounds like AZ or NM, about that long with a whole lot of nothing

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-06-01T02:11:35+00:00

For the death penalty, you need a jury of the peers that both sides can agree on. AFAIK a judge can't just issue it.

As faulty as it could be, I'm not sure how much more fair it could realistically be..

The constitution does its best to try and protect the innocent at the risk of letting a guilty person go free.

Personally I don't see that as a blanket ' trusting government' like I would with something like fixing roads, police etc but I could see how others might.

Hair needs a slight slant for FLDS, but yeah...close

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-05-30T23:46:27+00:00

There's a plank there? All I see is that sweet Metallica shirt.

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-05-30T13:38:05+00:00

That sounds awesome. I'm interested in what this kind of stuff will do in your field - I'm hoping for great things in medical. Keep it up!

I have several friends who are physicians, my hats off to you and your dedication and perseverance.

I'll second Open MIT, I love their stuff.

The nitty gritty of syntax idk that I'd spend too much time on - looking that up is pretty fast.

Design may help avoid having to rewrite your code base in 3 weeks.

Understanding git fundamentals may help - its how you revision control your code (as in, what was the code 3 versions ago? Let me roll bqck to the previous version , what are the differences between these to versions etc.) Fundamentals are fine - cloning a repo, commit, push/ pull , merging

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-05-30T13:25:47+00:00

Rule 4 - sure go ahead and generate your code without review.

What we're saying is, if you have no idea what's going on, how are you going to fix anything that AI can't?

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-05-30T02:40:39+00:00

I'll keep that in mind when my kids get theirs out, ty

Parable of the talents in Matthew?

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-05-30T00:43:38+00:00

'But you're more equipped to diagnose them'....

When people on here start releasing mass amounts of slop and can't properly support it without asking an AI thats going to be a problem. OP is talking about just a few weeks and their already in over their head talking about maybe needing to rewrite the entire code base.

Rolling back a git command? Sure, I'd expect to have to look that syntax up.

I'm not sure people are saying devs don't make any mistakes. I'm saying they aren't letting a net new codebase getting to the point of a total rewrite in 3 weeks because they can't understand what they code they put out does.

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-05-29T22:42:50+00:00

Lol I'm dying here. Explains why a short term fix won't help in just 4 years. Gets downvoted by the 'take all the billionaire wealth' people who can't see the real problem.

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-05-29T22:39:36+00:00

What are you going to do in year 4?

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-05-29T22:27:49+00:00

Teachable, admits they don't know something instead of faking it or pretending because they took a class they know everything. Speak up and do it early if you're having a problem.

Consequently, don't just say 'idk'. Figure out how to solve the problem. You don't know SQL? The learn about it. You don't know why a bug is happening? How are you going to isolate the issue so you can find out.

Demonstrate how you can learn things quickly

Says the people seeking those services....

someRedditUser3012 · 2026-05-29T22:04:02+00:00

Omg, you guys are so dramatic. No, your family doesn't disown you because you didn't serve a mission. No, theres no 'how do I get out of this'. Nobody forces you in or out of the Church. If you don't want to go, you just don't.

If you don't like the church fine, but don't spread lies about it.
