Programming is DIFFICULT

No it’s not.

Programming is a difficult topic to break into. It’s a complicated field

No it’s not. We’ve just created a HUGE industry around it and made it harder than it has to be.

They promote misinformation

That’s it, I’m out! 😂

I have no respect for anyone that starts peddling the “mainstream” narrative. If you don’t understand the space you’re talking/blogging about, just don’t try. “Must tutorials promote misinformation”?! seriously 🤦‍♂️ wtf is this guy smoking?! 😂

@prologic@twtxt.net That’s true too. But I see it right now with my wife. She wants to create a simple website from scratch and wants to learn the things on her own. I told her couple times: look. It is not worth buying video courses where the guy tells you 10 hours on how to create a paragraph. The documentation is there with looots of examples. She is facing the same as I did when I asked for motivation. You need a project to learn not a course.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net You haven’t caused any heat here at all ! 😅 This it totally good discourse, this subject though (programming) is just near and dear to my heart, and this guy Douglass” doesn’t seem to understand the problem space all that well 😂 – I also (as clearly evidenced) get “turned off” by BS like “Blah blah misinformation”. I’m a bit more direct and straight 😅 – Maybe the author could have said:

Most tutorials are shallow and don’t cover enough depth

I dunno 😅

Because everyone else out there is making bullshit, over-hyped websites and landing pages, everyone thinks that’s what attracts people to their website and their product.
