I began learning to code in early 2012, and my experience confirms this. When I first started getting into Python heavily for work, it was so frustrating to have to set up virtualenvs, system and python paths, and runtime configurations.
Another area I found tricky, as a self-taught developer, was objects and classes, and nomenclature of these things and functions between different languages. I've since done a lot of work in JavaScript, and somewhere along the way it all started to click. I'm finding it easier to read and understand parts of new languages, but there's still a big curve if the syntax differs greatly and seems unusual (I just started with Objective-C, and a year ago it was too odd to handle, but I think it's easier to pick up on now).
