I make things: electronics and software and music and stories and all sorts of other things.

In VR, you are able to place windows anywhere. You have infinite amounts of screen. Look at something like Simula
What I said:
You could mull over and discuss a million different ways to get started. The most important thing is to be decisive and just do
We could go on for hours debating what the best beginner language, environment, project, etc is, but the important thing is that they pick something and do it.
I gave them a specific thing to get started on. That’s the important thing.
Learning programming is gonna be hard. They’re gonna face issues no matter what, so like I said:
Is it the best way? Who cares just get started
That’s why I said you missed the point. I don’t think you read my reply at all and just stopped at the first word lol
I feel it’s caused by two things:
- In industry, most people do more reading than writing, so you see a lot of other people’s mistakes and have to fix them rather than your own. You don’t make enough code to feel humbled.
- Out of industry, there’s often a vacuum. You code one way and make a thing and you’re proud of it. You never hear criticism, and you’re defensive of your abilities. This could be programmers who are new or just out of college or do it as a side to their main job. You don’t share code enough with people to learn better ways and be humbled. Good enough is enough to be proud of.
There’s an in between state that can open up the door to humility. Maybe a person who works at a company and thus deals with customers, non-programmers, and a team but still works on open source and in their free time build lots of side-projects and open sources them. You’re making enough code and putting it out there enough to really receive good criticism. Those people would be more likely to be humble I suppose
I can’t even wrap my mind around people who use 60% keyboards and use a bunch of extra function keys let alone anything more drastic
