so what you sayin is you scared of puttin in that work, that have to dedicate myself to the craft work, that 8-10 hrs a day to achieve mastery type work, that sacrifice my present social life for exponentially better situations type work, that friends and family might not understand so the circle get's smaller type work, that struggle a thousand times but on the 1001st try it becomes crystal clear type work....

that's cool..... it ain't for everybody

Learning Swift right now so I can create my own mobile iOS apps and I love it so far. Started with Swift Playgrounds then moved on to Paul Hudson's courses.

Here's the blueprint to get a front end job...

If you want a job asap learn shopify or wordpress after learning html css and javascript. Cms's suck to work with but they can get your foot in the door. If you grind you can get out of this type of work. Please don't get caught up in doing cms work your whole career. You can skip this step if there's no rush.

youre going to want to learn and focus on just one of these to start:

React is the most popular and has the most jobs but I've found that the competition is fierce. Medium level complexity. At first you will be lost but spend a couple weeks with it, it will click. Created by facebook. Probably the best ecosystem out of all the

Angular is complicated but it's worth it to learn. Especially since it uses typescript. If you want to work for big enterprise this is the way to go. Losing popularity but I think the competition for these jobs are easier than react. It's created by google.

Vue. I love vue. It gets a lot of hate for no reason. Not as the other 2 but it's growing and every year getting more jobs. Most likely will be working in startups-mid sized companies. It's easy as hell. You can get up and running with it in a weekend. Maybe a month for the more advanced concepts. It was created by an ex-google employee.

Just pick one and start building a website or 2 with it. You can find designs off figma's community site and theme forest. Don't try to design websites yourself there's a whole science behind web design and most likely your designs will be ugly unless you study ux ui design at the same time. After you build a few dummy sites ask friends and family if you can build them a website. After you have 2 dummy website and 1 real website for a friend or family, build your portfolio from everything you learned off of building your projects for other people and apply to jobs. Your first job may land you around 40k-60k maybe more. You can increase your salary fast if you got hustle in you.

Pm me if you have questions

The greatest lie ever told.

MacOS Terminal shyts on anything Microsoft will ever ever build. Simply due to the fact that Mac OS has UNIX/LINUX underpinnings.

A MacBook Pro is a dev ops dream machine. I can have a full dev environment in my language of choice running natively on Mac OS in 15 min out of the box. Without ever opening a web browser.

It’s going to take a hell of a lot longer than that on a Windows machine. Hence every Silicon Valley company worth its salt having the MacBook Pro as standard hardware for developers and only non devs get a choice. Let’s not even get into other areas like the power of Apple Script or out of the box security.

Windows being for power users and MacOS being a toy is one of the greatest lies ever told. Started by cacs who consider downloading pirated games and running key gens to be “power”. :mjlol:

get a pre M1 macbook (without the bar) with 16-32gb and at least 500gb SSD.
use bootcamp to get at least windows on it. put linux as well.
install virtual box.

i am not sure if c++ is worth fully learning just as a segway into other languages because modern c++ is pretty extensive. if you have time and energy start with C (K&R), then C++ (stoustrup, myers*3). ignore sutrter and the romanian guy's books. stackoverflow has a good list. if you want more depth then add the stephen's unix programming books, the streams book with the fish on the front and then the knuth references. reading something on compiles (dragon book might be too old these days).

if you have any c++ questions brehs in this thread will be able to help.

especially @Rozay Oro

T2 chip and surreptitious tracking messages / VPN ignoring.
No linux usage (yet).
No windows usage (yet) - and maybe never.
Plus it will come installed with Big Surveillance or Monterey.
Needs more physical ports.
Apple's increasing efforts to box out (iimit) self-repair.
Cost

I haven't installed Big Surveillance or Monterey but I am sure there is ever more "ecosystem" pressure in those than previosuly. Ditto for the hardware. Who wants their laptop to look like a phone. And who wants their phone to look like a consumer product toy :hhh:
