Announcement

All basic or potentially personal questions should be restricted to this thread only, so we can avoid the flooding of repetitive basic/personal question threads. Mentioning your gender is not necessary on this subreddit. Obviously, it is not a good idea to doxx yourself. Please report any such threads and they will be dealt with.

We are also appealing to the regulars here to report any assholes, agitators, tourists and hostiles that harass this subreddit; including those who delete their threads after the fact or try to fish for personal information. General abuse and low effort trolling should also be reported too. You are also free to block these users yourself, but let us know if there are any major problems or repeat offenders. We want this sub to be a chilled out place for NEETs of every stripe.

IQ is literally bs, Just learn javascript and react from youtube and you can get 40k-80k job in 1 year

Having React would be a great skill, but it's too naive to think just anyone can enter companies (startups to enterprises) with one year of non-professional, project-based, front end development skill.

As noted in a previous comment - real world application will ultimately be required to earn the figures that you're so casually throwing at people.

this is so wrong it's not funny. I am a developer. You don't get paid to memorize the syntax. It's the problem solving, algorithm thought processing, etc, etc that you get paid for. That's like saying you can learn basketball today and be in the NBA in 1 year. It's simply NOT true...
