Programming , a strange profession

State of the Art

Coding requires a constant state of evolving. There is almost no moment where you can somehow settle down and say: "hey im done, now im a coder". You always need to keep updated with new libraries, new frameworks and technologies in general. IT world changes way too fast.

No mercy for typos

Often, the biggest challenge lies on focusing on the small details.

Whenever you write code, the interpreter goes through each single line "as it is". Thats the beauty and hell of coding. Each single line is executed to the very exact meaning it has; there is no such a thing as "human interpretation" or adjustment: whatever is written will be performed.

Everyone can code


Many people believe programming is very hard. Like if somehow special mind abilities are needed of some kind. Not at all.

Like in any job, some professionals work better than others, some do more complex stuff than others. Programming itself, is just about building concepts out of pieces or blocks.

Just like lego.
