Feeling dumb

I've been learning on and off about programming for 3 years now. Mostly front-end, html/css/js, for school projects. My degree isn't in CS or IT, so projects that give the opportunity to code are scarce and often short. So I get that I may simply may not have enough hours in coding.

So I'm delighted to be taking CS50 as a Minor at the moment, this has given me the chance to sink a lot of hours in coding, and currently I am in week 5 Data Structures.

But every time I start on the problem sets, I feel overwhelmed and feel like I don't understand anything. I have to Google/GPT the most basic of things. Even though I've been programming regularly the past 6 weeks, I don't feel as if I have improved and I'm starting to doubt if this is a career for me.

In a year I would like to find a career in development. Have any of you felt this way? And what has helped you get rid of this imposter syndrome?

Monthly billing?
  • Yeah, that sounds reasonable. Thanks for taking the time to clarify it. I was hoping to be able to take advantage of the two-year discount but still pay for it in monthly installments

  • Monthly billing?

    I would like to upgrade to the 2 year plan. But I can't pay the full 2 year price in 1 transaction. Is there a possibility for monthly billing?

  • Yup, have been trying to enjoy lemmy since the reddit migration. For the most part its fine. But way too many politics in each comment sections and posts; filled with commies, libtards and all other magical beings of the political rainbow.

    Is een baan die 17 km ver weg is te ver om naartoe te fietsen?
  • Nee niet aan te raden, tenzij het echt een hele toffe baan is. In de zomer is een uur fietsen te doen, maar de rest van het jaar zal je motivatie ver te vinden zijn. Een elektrisch fiets of scooter zou beter zijn voor deze afstand.
