The important piece of all this is that these these are all people without a technical background.
They come from careers where software was not a large part of their job. The need for learning software from a more human focused vantage point is clear.
It is likely that college will persist as the place to learn deeply technical things and bootcamps will be the place to dip your toes in the water.
Everything about computers that exists today was created by humans. It’s all a product of our imaginations and hard work. We have the tools for anyone to learn it.
The path to becoming a programmer is simple. You start at a point on the spectrum where you feel most comfortable and you work your way towards the middle.
The path to becoming a programmer is simple. You start at a point on the spectrum where you feel most comfortable and you work your way towards the middle. The middle ground is a place where people are equally comfortable with people and computers. It’s the future we’ve dreamed about where most people are able to write their own software to solve their problems.
If you start on the deeply technical side of the spectrum, you’ll be best served by figuring out how to apply your technical skills to solve human problems. All the hard work and innovative software you create can be used by thousands of people to solve their problems in unique ways.
If you start on the human side, learning technical skills and programming will give you a tremendous advantage in solving those human problems you work on every day. Maybe that nagging issue you can’t seem to fix is solvable by writing your own tool to improve communication.
The important thing to realize is that there’s no one way to start and no one direction to go. If there were, everyone would be doing this and it would be easy. But you should keep trying because coding is one of the most valuable and creative things you could ever do. You can literally build things out of thin air that don’t exist yet.
And one day you’ll step back from the computer and realize you finally get it. There’s no feeling like it. As Neil Gaiman says, “Perfection is like chasing the horizon. Keep moving.”
As you move up the chain, you can see things shift more towards humans.
Assembly is introduced to make the 1s and 0s more memorable for us.
C is designed to be an easier level than assembly but you still have to heavily think about how the internals of a computer works.
C++ begins to introduce some human concepts into the language so we can represent ideas better in code.
Java builds upon the ideas of C++ but abstracts away the internals of the computer as best it can. You don’t need to care about how things inside your computer like RAM is used as much.
Python takes another step towards humans and focuses on a syntax that’s more readable for humans but still has a lot of the structure inside it.
Ruby is focused on flexibility. They want your code to be like writing a story or a poem. Sure, you still have to worry about how the computer works was somewhat, but even less so than Python.
