aptitude is a real thing and interest is another thing. Then there are other externalities like access to resource etc.
Not everyone can do everything, maybe due to lack of aptitude or interest.
So in essence, "anyone can do anything" is just an empty feel good mantra
- deltaonefour 5y agoNo, not anyone can do anything. I never said that. I said anyone can master the subjects mentioned above. Including programming. These subjects are so easy that anyone can do it. If I said anyone can master chess and play it on the level of a grandmaster, I'd be wrong. But for just learning to be an adequate programmer or playing chess adequately... anyone can do it.
