I've only been doing it around 4 months and I'm absolutely ASTONISHED at the learning curve of this trade. When I saw my first page of code I literally froze up with fear. Of course I'm still not all the way there but I am truly grateful for people like you who make these videos.

[@CodingWithChris]

I can appreciate your points Kalle. I think it’s also worthy to point out that learning a language is just a part of becoming a programmer, which everyone can do. But I think those who are considering becoming programmers should first understand the basics like what RAM actually does and what’s the relationship between hardware and software. It is true everyone can do it, but those who spend time understanding these basics are the ones appreciating the power of a language. Enjoyed your video as always ;)

Depends on what you want to do. Making frontend websites, no, writing an advanced ML/AI, yes.

[@thediegomorgan]

Yes,anyone that is willing to put the right amount of time and focus can learn

[@danielsalazar8361]

Hey Kalle. Thanks for making this video and encourage me to start learning how to code. By the way, please continue writing those articles for the Flutter Course on your Blog. They've been really useful for me to start grasping on some basic concepts of programming. Wish you the best mate!!!

[@rdoetjes]

Being a programmer and musician I get that question a lot. As well as the question, can anybody learn to play music? And I think both have the same answer. Yes to a certain extend. If everybody would learn to program and play music we’d know what the average skill level would be. But there would be people well outperforming everybody else, as well as a few sucking even more that the average. And programming and music are similar in the sense that there’s one language you can’t just wrap your head around - in music it would be an instrument that just doesn’t agree with you. And some do. I stopped playing keyboards because I was hitting a wall, which was a physical and probably neural limitation, where I couldn’t play independent melodies with right and left hand (still can’t) and I grew frustrated. So I bought a guitar in whim. And that was before the lovely internet. So I had a book with basic chords and it just felt... natural. What had taken me 6 years on a piano a learned in less than a month (arguably that’s ear training and finger training I had from keyboards carried over). 9 months in and I was considered to be an above average player (I feel I’m still on that level :) because you keep focussing on the next virtuoso you want to reach and there’s always someone better). And the same is with coding. Pick a language that suits you for your needs and then I’m sure everybody can program. But only a few can program 3D applications or scienticif mathematical models. As you need knowledge about the subject you’re writing for. Inconsiderate myself to be a good systems programmer. But I suck at web apps - I know I could learn it, but I don’t care for JavaScript, JQuery and HTML(5). That’s like a blues musician finding it impossible to shred neo-classical. Different approaches and techniques in using the same instrument. A shredder would find it easier to learn blues. That’s the comparison of assembler to higher language.

[@honey-py9pj]

loved it, such a positive message , not for coding but for anything in life, focusing on what we can improve instead of our circumstances ,needed that.

[@JP-td8gt]

I started with VBA in Excel. Recorded macros and reviewed what it created behind scenes then played with it; after that got into SQL. SQL later led me to C#, which then led me to Python. It's a never ending journey trying to solve logical puzzles and it's fun. You don't need to know everything, you just need to choose a language that is relevant to what you want to create and it usually always pays well. If you don't know where to start, python is a great language. I'm no expert and most of what I have learned had been trial error self taught or guidance from people with more experience. If you read this and are new to programming you can do it! Don't give up!

[@anthonyb4466]

GREAT STUFF!! I've been coding for about a year now, I have taken so much out of the content you put out, especially when it comes to productivity! I use the heck out of note taking and task management apps now!!

[@hoi7423]

I simply love the quote from Bill Venables, couldn't agree more: "Writing program code is a good way of debugging your thinking "

[@JimVincitore]

Yes, anyone can. But it takes a lot of reading, a lot of classes, asking a lot of questions, and a few years of pain. It's like training to be doctor or lawyer. Takes time and a lot of fiddling on the computer. Coding is just the "tool." It's like saying, I know how to use a hammer, pliers, and other hand tools. You need the knowledge of something else to be effective. Like, I know how to build birdhouses, or I know how to build skyscrapers. Web pages are pretty simple, but a good eye for graphic design is needed. For a good career as a developer, you need to add something else, like math, or physics, or biology, or accounting, etc. But don't let the math scare you away, a whole page of math can usually be summed up in just a few lines of code.

[@emsheeranstudio3459]

Most of successful peoples that became famous coder's say "in programming doesn't need math, it's all about understandings & focus and hardworking.. In my school day i failed my all maths subject, but i now started python language to learn but it's easier then maths subject in my school

[@andresorrego6778]

I used to play a lot of videogames, and when I started to code, a lot of games became repetitive, but coding never feels like that, even in a job, where is normal that you have to repeat some stuff. I think anyone can code but just if you enjoy it. It can sound obvious, but I have seen a lot of developers that don't like what they do and they don't improve in any area. If you're gonna do something, do something that you really enjoy, because this field needs a lot of time and effort, but totally worths it.

[@dubidooba7930]

Hey Kalle! I really enjoyed this video. I thought you’re analogy about Joe and Olympic athletes really puts things into perspective. I highly recommend you read the book Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell. It talks about the same things you did in this video, eg.some people like bill gates are not 100x smarter than us just incredibly lucky! Cheers (also English is not my first language)

As a child of immigrants parents and me dropping out of High school I also believed that people had secret talents or that they got bless with skills no one else could acquire. I had a idea to build social network in late 2010 and when my brother told me I needed to learn code I literally cried myself to sleep it wasn’t until I saw the movie the social network when they talked about code and algorithms that I found some kind of interest in programming. A soon apply for a small developer position in a fast declining game, let’s say they aren’t big time people and they gave me a shot I only volunteer so I didn’t get payed for it. The guy who gave me a chance kept asking me to give him examples of if statements and loops but at that time I didn’t have a clue what he was talking about. I soon left the developer position and started to learn php because I found out Facebook was built on php and since then my life has been up and down so I study on and off and even lost interest at some point. Fast forward now 2020 I re starting to learn now I focus on python and then moving into android development but overall it is true practice makes some what perfect don’t give up and don’t blame anyone but the effort you put into learning something

Before I started with Python programming... the 10 years trying to learn C felt like it was taking me forever to finalize a decent enough project. With Python programming... it took me less than a week to become intermediate since it is almost easy to read like plain English. Even though Python is too slow to create graphic intensive games... it didn't matter to me because I intended to make games and other apps that did not require so much computing power and figure somebody might soon enough create a Python-To-Pure-C translator. Anyhow... I planned to build a Python project in which to make writing code a whole lot easier by simply clicking what I thought to call an auto-suggest menu-dot and hopefully prevent every type of syntax error. Maybe you can have this channel go in that direction alongside the feedback of your followers instead?

Spending 56 hours on debugging a bug is what I call real patience

[@rdoetjes]

I recently spend 4 weeks finding and solving a bug... not full time of course. But it would happen sporadically stopping our productions and everything it happened I added some specific logging and validations. Until I found the bug. When I explained it to my colleague who’d written it he was like: “FUCK! I NEVER THoUGhT ABoUT That CaSE! He queried the number of changed records in the remote system. So he could retrieve them on blocks (too much data to pull in at once; and restricted by the mainframe policy as well). So he compared if the number of records was equal to the expected total number. But when during the fetch a record was removed from the remote system he it couldn’t end and just kept querying that last page :) When I saw the same page come by twice in the extra logging I had hacked in (whilst on production, I’m a cowboy like that), I knew what the problem was.

And I never needed math - neitehr for front end nor for backend work- it wasnt until i got intomachinelearning where i needed math. You just need to have a goal on what you try to do and fucking do it. Im not saying im any good or fst but i love coding- i would never wanna do anything else and it works- my frst website was national famous for a few days and my 2 nd project gotten even international recognition than i worked on a few other things and now the site im working on is also nr.1 resource site for crypto- everything is possible and in my case nobody thought me anything. you can do it- just do it- and i was in prison was addicted to drugs and i loved to get drunk- fuck it- everything is possible in live you just need to want it

[@dappshow3094]

and dont be scared of failing- and if you fail so waht- get our ass up and make it better- if you can look up you can get up. and in regards to progrmming- you have everything you need in front of you- there is every resource out there for programmers you can think of- once you get a feeling for front end backend and how to automate tasks than you can slowly escape tutorial hell and work on oyur own stuff- dont get intimitaded by math- you can write great apssetc without math- math is only needed once you get intzo ML and even thanyou dont need to reinvent the wheel
