I won't bore you guys with my sob story but I've been unemployed and doing fuck all day after day for quite some time. I've been trying to educate myself about coding which is where I hope to land in due time, but it's been hard to summon enough motivation in the vacuum.
This got me thinking, maybe I can supplement my family income by doing a bunch of no strings attached computer stuff on fivver or something and get a bit of experience with coding along the way. Getting five bucks for an hour or two of work would be good pocket money here in Russia.
I'm a stemlord and generally consider myself to have a bit of a talent with coding, despite never having done it in a professional capacity. I know some C# from making shitty games in Unity, some Python from tinkering with machine learning and a bit of JavaScript.
Is there a smart way to approach this? I'm willing to learn those new fancy web frameworks or whatever.
Keep up to date with best practices, follow some forums or even stackoverflow honestly, it's what I do. Branch knowledge and working with atislan/github/gitlab can mostly be done through youtube tutorials and just farting around with it.
