Dad: "I'll spend a few hours getting the addresses out of Zillow." Me: "I can probably do it faster." Dad: "How so?" Me: "Well first I'll open the console then..." Dad: "So, computer stuff?" Me: "I computer stuff; you do the real estate stuff." Dad: "I can do real estate stuff."

How does a non-engineer figure out the most useful parts of programming to learn? Is there a “coding for non-engineer white collar professionals” book?
-
I have no satisfying answer to this question, but if that book ever gets published, it should be shelved next to "Math for people who aren't math teachers" and "English: the good parts."

We had an intern scrape a 2000-prospect list in a minute by doing this. So worth it to empower and show them it's not 10x the work for 20k prospects Creating fluidity between "business" and "tech" is super fulfilling - learned that from your content

You can convince them by saying “dad, how would you like to see a LOT of dollar signs in your future?”

Where would you go to reliably get dangerous in things like jQuery? Any resources you like?

Definitely don’t need to be an engineer to write some pseudo code on upwork.

This still doesn’t seem considerably different than the previous objection. Is there a way to be able to comfortably bang out that previous line without also being at least basically a junior software engineer?
-
i.e. are you saying anything different than “learning software engineering would benefit basically any professional”?
