The Re-cap

 Hi all

I am The Greedy Coder. 

I call myself this because I want to learn any and everything but never finish first. You may get this, so I wanted to create a blog to show how I coped with never finishing anything.

I hope that this blog makes me finish everything. 

 I have suspected ADHD so that might contribute to it, its mad hard to get a diagnosis and expensive but ill pull the trigger soon. Im trying to avoid using that as an excuse and power through because I have to make it professionally. 

Brief history:

  • Wanted to do websites at 27. Moved to Madrid and instead got caught up in the party scene.
  • Came back a year later and started to do IT for schools for 3 years.
  • Got another job in 1 school doing IT, but I was exposed to CBT Nuggets where I started learning everything I could. This was Networking,  CCNA, Backups, Server and domain builds, Virtualisation, remote admin, Wireless systems, and HTML with a dash of CSS.
  • I dabbled in JavaScript too but didn’t feel like I got anywhere.
  • I eventually left at 38 and started to do freelance IT work while also studying random new languages.
  • The first language I started to code in like I said was JavaScript so I tried again but I couldn't get it.
  • I next did Python that felt so easy. I did a few online classes, went through most of the studying to advanced level, made a game withe some libraries, but it was all cookie cutter stuff. I wasn’t retaining anything.
  • During this time I took on Django to create websites with databases, Sql, Tkinter, Docker, did more websites with Bootstrap, and even a bit of project management with learned Prince 2.
  • Then I found C# at aged 42
  • Everything felt natural and I made a load of mini console based programs.
  • I started a bootcamp 2 days a week course, and this is where we are today.
