5 yrs ago I was homeless. 3 yrs ago I was lived in a closet. 2 yrs ago I moved into a master bdrm. 1 yr ago I moved into my first apartment. In a few weeks im moving into my first house and purchasing a new car tomorrow. And all of this started with learning code. 😭

I quit my job today. I genuinely love where I work. The CEO and my colleagues are amazing. But I will not allow one bad apple to mistreat me and yell at me as if I’m nothing. As the only developer at the company I gave my 1 day notice 30 min ago.

I've been let go today 😶. I dont know how I'll tell my parents who are depending on me. If anyone is looking for a front end developer with 4 years of experience please let me know. If possible please RT as well to help get this out. Thank you.

So many people who stopped learning code 12 months ago would have become a developer by today... if only they didn’t give up.

I make more than 6x what I earned as a Jr Web Developer 5 years ago. I never thought I’d ever make more than 95k/yr as a front-end developer. Now I make MUCH more than that. Please don’t limit your potential as I did. You’re much capable than you think.

I still can’t believe what I’ve been able to do with my life. Seven years ago, I was living in my car. Now I’m living life, and it’s all thanks to tech.

I just lost my unborn child and almost lost my wife today. I feel like someone punched a hole through my chest.

I think it's time to leave JavaScript and move into a career in Python, Goodbye front-end and hello back-end? 😱
