Ask HN: Help me starting out my career.
I am a 22 year old in last year of college pursuing mechanical engineering. I literally wasted my 3 years doing nothing. I am really interested in working for a startup related to mechanical engineering. But I have no knowledge whatsoever, Please help me how to start off. I need help regarding what to do, study etc.

Python is a bit easier and is used for the scientific community. Academics like it. I think Ruby on Rails is the way to go. http://www.quora.com/What-are-the-best-resources-for-non-coders-to-learn-Ruby-on-Rails http://www.quora.com/What-are-the-best-resources-for-non-cod... P.S. try to find the same thing in Python and comment back on here if you do. Hope that helps!
