Nice progress! I do note that you are under 30, which means you can still make progress. There is a famous forum post of someone starting some very basic drawings and progressing onto higher skill level a few years later. He started at 23 or 24.
What I am hoping to see is someone starting at a later age.
- TheSOB888 13y agoYes, you can still learn when you're older. Especially if you have an inquisitive mind like most hackers. The brain doesn't "solidify" completely as you age, it just solidifies the knowledge you already have. People have learned languages past 30, just by immersion, which is a very complex task.

- martin-adams 13y agoOh dear, just goes to show how ageing my digital footprint is. I was 26/27 in 2009, so that means I'm now over the 30 threshold. Haha! Personally, I don't believe age slows you down but maturity does. I rarely have the time to focus on non-essential tasks and priorities change. It might take me longer to learn something than if I was younger, but I'm okay with that. The thing to watch out for is jumping ahead because you think you know something and never really learn what's going on.
