IT and Software Dev
I have always had a keen interest in computing, as a kid pulling apart toys and building things with lego evolved into skills in this area. Although I don’t study computer science I make an effort to read and program as often as I feel motivated to do so. Recently I had a project in website design and I followed the youtube channel and taught myself a heap to do with HTML and CSS.
A few months back I worked through dive into Python, MySQL, PHP plus a little of Javascript.
Also I read up on TCP/IP.
The following goals I have to teach myself in development are:
- Further knowledge in Python
- Assembly
- Graphics programming
- Android Development (Java)
Normally I can pump through a large amount of material in these areas if I manage to motivate myself. This motivation to do Hours of reading comes in bursts but as the war of art (If programming is viewed as a creative pursuit) states, the way to overcome these demons is to simply be consistent. If I simply sit down and force myself the motivation will eventually come.
I am really interested in this as having the technical knowledge is complementary in becoming a technical founder/co-founder of a start-up.
Now for the motivation…
