I’ve tried a few times in the past to get into it but I just get overwhelmed. I’m frankly amazed by and so thankful for all the programmers who contribute to all of the great libre software I use. I am stuck at the level of knowing more about computers than essentially everyone I know or encounter, while simultaneously being a complete and utter noob to anyone who actually understands computing. I just know how to use search engines and follow instructions written by people smarter than me.
Don’t discount yourself. I’m dumb as shit. There’s a lot of dumb programmers. We just know a handful of things and kept beating our heads at it until suddenly, it works.
Keep picking up things every year and after a few years, suddenly you know more than others and they keep promoting you.
I am too dumb brain for programming :(
