Blog at FAVORTEXT.com. I've used Wordpress to generate this blog. It looks weird and things are out of place, but I will tackle this bit by bit as time goes on. This is where I will jot down my journey on learning coding, business development and going from an idea to an MVP prototype.
I wish everyone here who took the time to respond a glorious and wonderful life.
I've just started learning the core web dev fundamentals - HTML, CSS, JAVASCRIPT. I am also taking a Ruby course on Udemy, and as mentioned, starting The Firehose Project in September. Two ideas so far: a. idea from my job (jail) b. ESL idea I always had even before starting the career as a jail guard.
Things change so fast, so I will see what happens when one of these ideas makes contact with customers.
This is very interesting. I don't have the pedigree mentioned in the article that, according to the article, leads one to Startup success. So, should I just give up or keep going?
"By learning to code, my desire is to get to a stage where: a. I can converse with tech people who have been at this their whole live, b. gain the proficiency to build the mvp, c. become a team member with attributable skill set when company is formed, etc. Hiring someone is inevitable down the line, but I need to create the map for him/her to paint first."
Ignore that asinine article. Don't judge your success based on whether you started a startup or not. Base it on what you wrote above: Learning to code, having technical conversations, and being a better person than you ever thought possible.
Thank you sir. I have recently downloaded the online version of Zed Shaw's Learn Python the Hard Way ebook with accompanying lessons. Taking this along with Udacity's Intro to Comp Science course which uses Python. Basic JS under my belt from team treehouse and udemy course.
I am already taking No. 1, and will now add No. 2 to my favorites. Thank you.
