This is complete bs. I've learned 2 languages to fluency by mostly watching movies. I've learned the linux cli by setting up a minecraft server for my friends in high school. I've learned programming by making IRC (and later

It's a good thing basically it means that diversification removes risk and makes you money. I've written a (simpler) article on the subject, which can serve as an introduction to this topic: https://alicegg.tech/2

I don't have ADD, but I have clearly observed that listening to a YouTube video of people talking while I work increases my productivity. I think it's because when I lose focus of my code, I will just end up listening to the video

That's funny, I remember playing a little bit of a Silkroad themed (MMO)RPG as a teenager ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silkroad_Online ). I wonder if this game inspired it somehow.
