My bf got me to code
- erikb 15y agolol. with this kind of title you will be spammed for sure. good luck, but own fault.
- steventruong 15y agoYears ago, probably around 2006 or 2007, my gf learned how to design and slice in HTML and CSS too. Its a good starting point although the real challenge will be actually picking up a real programming language thereafter. Best of luck.
- FrancescoRizzi 15y ago"Then I got hooked. I like the feeling of being able to control everything in a browser" I liked this. Remove the "in a browser" clause, and I think you found the core of every passionate developer. There's also those that enjoy sharing with, or enabling others, but I suspect this one covers 99.99999% of all code writers out there.
- celer 15y agoMy motivation comes from a very different angle, though I don't know how shared it is. What I love about programming is the feeling of having to control everything. Computers don't forgive, they forget when you least want them to, and fuzziness is impossible. Writing code helps me clarify my own thoughts and ensure that I really know what I am saying. The mental state of a good hacking session is better than meditation for me, and saving time and the joy of creation are nice side benefits. Am I misunderstanding you? Are you using decimal places to indicate forceful intent rather than logical prediction?
- fersho311 15y agoHmmm I think meditation is awesome because it clears my mind. I like coding just for the pure satisfaction of being able to solve problems elegantly and feeling confident about it. Part of it is control, but mostly for me it's about the certainty.
