@gitpush
I spend my free time learning but every time I finish learning some subject and work, 10000 more unkown subjects pop up, and in the meantime I forget the first subject -
@Chlodovechus Don't move on like that. lear x, repeat x for a day or two, improve your way of doing x, then learn y, repeat for a day or two, then integrate x and y
That's how I started, even now (starting with F#) I'm doing that -
@gitpush
This sounds really good but the only issue is that I have very little free time.
I wish I didn't have to work full-time in a non-dev job so I could have more time for these things. -
@Chlodovechus in similar situations I reschedule:
Come back from work, rest, some family time, end the day around 10pm max.
start the next day at 5am and do some reading and coding.
See if you can do that it is really good because:
1. Most people sleep, no noises
2. Still nothing going on inside your head, plenty of free space for stuff to read -

A JAVA GUY IN TROUBLE
FEAR NOT FOR I AM HERE
You cant really learn everything. If your basics are strong, you should be fine. Choose one random field (dunno, sockets or some shit), and stick to learning one thing at a time. Its fine if you use goo.. I mean dont fucking use google, duckduckgo helps a lot with programming. Just make sure you know how build tools work and you are set to go. -
For me, learning to implement code into production-able projects was like learning to play the guitar.
At first you feel like you're learning a lot and it feels amazing, but then for a very, very long time you hit this plateau.
During this plateau is when most people stop learning to code / play the guitar.
Only the ones who keep a good schedule and soldier through this phase emerge out of it, and as soon as you do cross the plateau, it feels great! -
@Chlodovechus then go to hell
When i open a 2 gigabyte wordlist text file and forgot that my defaults text editor is GUI based.
When developers are frustrated with stupid laws 😂😂
I'm fucking frustrated.
Almost Every project, almost every task I did in the past 6 months has been a failure or partly done. Even the most trivial of tasks take me hours to complete, after immense googling and copypasting.
I know that I'm a junior with less than a year of dev experience but it feels I'm traversing through hell itself. I truly love to program, have tremendous passion and want to be a professional dev but it seems destiny itself wants me to keep doing what I do best but hate(Sysadmining).
When will this nightmare end? When will I be able to accomplish anything I need with code with so much ease, like my dev friends do? How many more courses, bootcamps should I fucking attend and how many more tutorials to watch? When will be able to work at nights without falling asleep? When will I have a fucking dev job and freelance projects instead of being a goddamn server-managing monkey?
