I Quit My Job to Learn Coding...

I don't know man I make less than half of what I would have made if I was a journeyman carpenter. I've been doing this for over 20 years.

I am a HTML developer at a company for a year but I only have HTML , Css knowledge and I decided to quit my job to learn to react. Does this sound like an idiot.

Sounds like OP can get a data analyst job easily after he learns python. Most companies don't even require more than SQL and excel for Data analyst.

[@ColbyJaxCodes]

Agreed. Great point.

@@ColbyJaxCodes how do I know If I should learn full stack or data science?

@@zaphodbeeblebrox3797 There are plenty of resources online to try both! I would watch as much content as possible to get an idea of what each entails, try out the basics of each and make a decision from there. You won't hurt yourself by learning a little and then switching after a month or two. There is plenty cross-domain skills that are very important to know.

AI is just a complementary tool. When it comes to GPT-3/GPT-4 and other similar models, just think of them as advanced google search tools. The worst developers in the future will only use AI, but the best will work with AI. It speeds up workflow, but the solutions they provide arent always the best and may never be the best, especially for more complex or niche problems. You'll always need developers to advance libraries, guard against new attacks, design, and maintain code.

He should look into data analyst job. If you really good at writing queries, you already can pass a major part of interview questions.

[@ColbyJaxCodes]

agreed!

Thats what im doing. getting a software is harder than i thought. combining electronics repair/prototyping with coding, definitely possible. im sitting at home not learning much sadly. im looking for a full time job now and maybe a parttime job keep up with the bills while learning to code.
