      Programming. My mother said I wouldn’t like it because one mistake would ruin everything. Well. We have linters, consoles, debuggers. Also, more forgiving languages (this is a lady who ate COBAL and Assembler for breakfast). It was a tooling issue, Mom!!https://twitter.com/amandadeibert/status/988828730624651264 …

      But I think it’s interesting that her first impulse was to discourage me from learning to program because I might get... discouraged?

      So now I’m a very good artist but a very junior programmer. Yes, the other way around would be preferable, but them’s the breaks.

      I always wish I could be both an artist and a programmer at the same time. But I never quite make it work. There’s no clearly defined career path for that.

      Working at Microsoft really sparked my interest in programming again. CSS isn’t enough anymore.

      That's really sad. My mum banned me from doing art to a higher level so I ended up doing a computer science degree and mostly coding (I'm not a programmer per se, but my job mostly involves programming).

      It’s a lot easier to retire if you start with code instead of art. You can always come back to art. But compound interest is more pronounced with early influxes of cash from early engineering and development careers.

      I don't have a dev or eng career though, but yes, of course.

      Fair fair, but having code in your job description automatically gets you more per year than not ;) I still wish I’d been able to get into game dev, all things told. I do my best to retroactively make cool things on the weekends anyway :)

      Our salaries are controlled by the government here. Your point very much still stands — just my specific career path is standardized/all postdocs get the same salary. And retiring is something I probably will never afford to do as the pensions scheme here imploded. 😢

      FWIW I think you can learn to code later in life. Lots of inspiring stories out there. 💙
