I have three boys, two are engineers and one is a gamer. Guess who fixes their computer when things go awry? That's right, it's me, their 65 year old father that learned to code assembly back in 1976 on a Dec PDP. I tried to teach them something more than just the superficial shell visible to users, but they just weren't interested in learning what was inside.
- kovek 7y agoI am missing out on learning from my dad (who wants to teach me about the foreign exchange). Instead, I'm going down my own route. Otherwise, I'd have to sit on his bed and watch him explain things to me in an unstructured manner. So, I recommend getting a proper desk to co-op on and a learning plan if you don't have those setup already. Also, I had a neighbor with lots of knowledge in electrical and software engineering. He taught me some of my first learnings with c++ and python. Shame that he was drinking a lot.
