This is such a dumb question that I hesitate to ask it in public: what kind of coding things are there to do if you don't enjoy design? I don't think I'd be good at app development or front-end web development, because I'm not great at making things look good.
@TotallyArbitrary tons! there's a lack of good system and embedded software engineers, and there's always a need for people who can write fast C or C++ code
@moz @TotallyArbitrary yeah, you are in luck, as most programming isn't particularly visual or design-y. :)
@scott Every single thing aimed at potential career changers involves front end web development. Also, bootcamps. Bleh.
@TotallyArbitrary there are more fun, less corporate ways to learn coding. Let me know if you want any resources. I like hello.processing.org :-)
@scott I've been taking CS classes at the University where I work. Totally fun, and I feel like I have a solid foundation, but it's not real focused on practical skills.
