Yeah, people need to get in on this ASAP. You would think oversaturation would cause the market on this to bottom out, but 2 things keep that from happening.
1. More and more companies and systems are requiring devs
2. Not that many people know how to code despite this trend.
Which is funny to me because if I compare my level of coding when I had my first dev job (primarily debugging, documentation, and library creation) to what I know now.... I didn't know shyt :pachaha:

I promise anybody on this forum. If you are unemployed, you can self-teach enough C++/Java in 4 weeks to get a job making 55k-65k easy. If you keep leaving the company after each project you do, you'll be 6ix figures in a matter of years.


And people wonder why IT is such a sought after area. Its free money for minimal effort:dead:
I personally didn't learn code in 4 weeks. Not enough to be employed.. It took me like, a year, but yeah you can teach yourself and end up in a pretty decent spot and this is without a college degree

It's definitely not for everyone but I love it; you can make a system do anything you want with a little bit of coding.

Back when I was in help desk, I was making powershell scripts to automate most of our process. Even basic WMI commands, silent installs, ps_remoting etc.
Those scripts, some AMDX GPO templates I created, and a basic working knowledge of Microsfot Exchange Console and AD are basically what got me my first System Admin job.

I'm glad you're saying this too, cuz I cannot stress enough how important scripting is for anyone in the IT field.

:salute:

Yeah I was probalby too "sales pitchy" with the 4 week guarantee, but you can learn a lot very quickly if you put in the effort.

Work smarter, not harder :salute:

If only coding was trendy too nikkas, man we'd have already swarmed and took over Silicon Valley, become the official face of it, just like we took over most sports.

but nobody wants to hear tthat.

no but seriously, coding is cool as fukk. get on it if you haven't already. there's lots of money there. the ppl mentioning this aren't kidding. i just wish i focused on it earlier and wasn't turned away by the stereotypes and stuff making it seem like the most uncool, underpaid work ever.
