What Would I Do Differently?

good one on the outsourcing / self learning / product building

Hi. Happy birthday! So, I just stumbbled upon your channel today. Im 33, and recently decided to reinvent myself and learn software development. I work for my brother's software development company which is quite new. I do sales, and he actually thinks I would make a good developer. Its nice to hear people like you say that anyone can learn software. I'm just starting to put in the hard work. I love your channel already, you just have the best vibe, can't believe you're an introvert. Look forward to learning alot from your content.

Thank you so much, Regina. Good luck with software development. The key is to know you can do it-- so when you get discouraged (and we all do) you push ahead. I love doing it, obviously :-)

[@p3t3mit]

Thanks for your insight. It's funny how outsourcing is often presented as this trivial matter. An obvious lever. Seems like the admin work and tech debt management balloons like crazy

[@OverpassApps]

It really does.

I'm so lost on learning to code. Looking at the simple route, alternatively, no code app developing would be like it being held hostage after it gets released. I'm afraid to share my idea and not have it stolen.

[@OverpassApps]

If you can learn it, you have control over it. I agree about being held hostage.

Your Google Play Store developer account had been suspended. Were you able to reopen your account? Is your account currently active? My account was also suspended 2 weeks ago. I lodged multiple appeals by writing more than 20 messages, but they don't seem to care about the appeals.

[@OverpassApps]

Yeah, I appealed and got it back.

to be completly honest being a software developer is harder than ever and i'm not trying to be negative but the amount of software developer who has degrees who are jobless is scary and i don't think someone who's a self taught could compete

Always focus on revenue, if no revenue, app will die very soon.

[@builder481]

this is my personal experience anyways maybe i'm wrong

[@mysterymister6055]

Not that different to my experience in the construction industry. Work hard, take pride in your work, and reap the rewards..
