"All" is a massive claim; but, your joblessness is not solely contingent upon programming alone. How is your resume, GitHub, and portfolio? How are your soft skills? Look for an area of improvement and start from there. I wish you all the best!
Considering what you wrote that's probably a great idea.
If your CV contains absurd claims about having learned all programming languages, I’d be surprised if you even got through to an interview.
I'm sorry to hear it, truely. I understand where you are coming from. I'm in the industry for nearly 15 years now and every now and then pashion gives way to reality. I really hope things turn around for you. May I ask, what made you get a degree in this field in the first place?
You're the programming equivalent of an incel
That's just uncalled for. The person behind that post is clearly going through some rough times. How about instead of stomping on them further, you try to lift them up a little? There is no need to be just outright mean.
Same logic can be applied to incels, all I see in both cases is people who can't reflect on what might be wrong with their own attitude and instead blame external factors because it's easier to do so.
You are of course free to hold on to being technically correct, but that was not my point at all. My point is, you had a choice of kicking someone who is already down or show some compassion to a fellow human being. You chose the former, while I wish more people would choose the latter.
Yeah, show compassion, never tell them they're wrong and then act surprised when they decide to show up somewhere and shoot people.
Okay, that escalated quicker that I can follow. Listen, it seems to me that you could use some compassion yourself. If you ever feel like needing to chat, please feel free to PM me ❤
