Met a guy at the coffee shop who thought you needed a math degree to start coding
I was working on a simple Python script at my local spot last week when the guy next to me asked what I was doing. He said, 'I always wanted to learn that, but I was never good at math in school.' I told him I barely passed algebra and showed him my code, which was just moving some text around. His face totally changed, like a light went on. He spent the next 20 minutes asking me about free online courses. It's crazy how many people think coding is only for math geniuses. Has anyone else had a chat like that that made you realize what stops people from even trying?
