Why do we love coding? đ»
Letâs face it: coding is nerdy.
But thatâs also what we love about it. It takes a special kind of person to be able to understand coding languages, and thatâs why weâre drawn to it. Itâs like a secret club that only the geekiest of us can join.
And once weâre in, weâre hooked. Coding is challenging, and thatâs what keeps us coming back for more. We love the feeling of accomplishment that comes with solving a complex problem, and coding is full of them.
ok guys, highlight this pleaseđ
thanks
SOMETIMES CODING CAN BE SO FRUSTRATING
Coding is like a box of chocolates â you never know what youâre going to get.
One minute youâre sailing along, making progress and feeling good about yourself. The next minute youâre pulling your hair out in frustration, wondering why everything is so darn difficult.
Itâs easy to get discouraged when youâre stuck on a coding problem, but itâs important to remember that everyone goes through this from time to time. The key is to keep plugging away until you find the solution. And, of course, to take a break now and then to prevent yourself from going insane. After all, coding is supposed to be fun⊠right?
âŠrightâŠ
No, but now really. Why do we love programming?
I feel it, you feel it, everybody feels it. But you just canât point out the reasons you like to spend so much time in front of a computer, writing some weird-ass looking combination of words, spaces and newlines.
So Iâm gonna share some of my thoughts which Iâm pretty sure youâre gonna resonate with:
1. The joy of lifelong learning
Coding is a constant learning process. No matter how much you think you know, thereâs always more to learn, whether itâs a new language, a new framework, or a new way of thinking about problem solving.
But thatâs what makes coding so exciting! Itâs always evolving, and thereâs always an opportunity to learn something new.
2. That feeling of accomplishment
As any programmer knows, thereâs nothing quite like the feeling of accomplishment when your code actually works.
After hours of staring at a screen, working out the logical kinks and fixing those pesky syntax errors, finally seeing your code come to life is truly a moment to savor.
In fact, itâs pretty much the only thing that can get us through the day sometimes.
So whether youâre a seasoned pro or just starting out, never forget that feeling of accomplishment when your code actually works. Itâs what keeps us going.
3. Focusing on details
Thereâs something strangely satisfying about paying attention to detail. Maybe itâs the feeling of accomplishment that comes from completing a task perfectly. Or maybe itâs the satisfaction of knowing that youâve done something to the best of your ability. Whatever the reasons, thereâs no denying that focusing on details is a great way to improve the quality of your work â and your life.
Of course, there are times when paying too much attention to detail can be a bad thing. But in general, focusing on the details is a good way to ensure that youâre getting the most out of whatever youâre doing.
4. Fully remote work is so much better
Thereâs no doubt about it, remote work is amazing. I mean, what could be better than being able to work from anywhere in the world, at any time of day or night? And with the advances in technology, thereâs really no limit to what you can do with your laptop and an internet connection. đ»
Lately, remote jobs have become extremely popular and there are more and more companies who offer this benefit or working fully remote. So if you ever dreamed about making money, at home, without ever having to leave your pajamas, then programming may be your thing. đŻ
5. Teamwork makes the dream work
That just being said, remote work doesnât mean that youâll feel lonely and abandoned. Even if you choose remote work, more likely than not, there will be a whole team of people working on the same project.
Since your code is an usable art, a whole team of people are connected to it. From the client to the account managers, and including the business people, finance, the support team, QA team, designers, product managers and project managers.
Code touches every single person in the organization and makes a difference to every single user that touches it (for good or bad).
Conclusion
Seriously, programming is pretty cool. I mean, what other profession lets you sit in a comfy chair all day with your pajamas on, drinking coffee and making things happen with just your brain? Itâs like being a wizard, but without all the messy spell-casting. And if you get good at it, you can make a lot of money doing something you love. So if youâre thinking about becoming a programmer, do it. You wonât regret it.
