Doing and making positive programming for young people is so important to me, and I will keep doing it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My system for staying young is to work a lot, to always have a project on the go.
There is a lack of talent in technology, and we need to be encouraging kids in school to learn how to code. We need to encourage computer science as a major. We need to encourage entrepreneurism.
Like many young people, I believe I have potential to make a positive impact in the world.
I'm encouraging kids to use computers at their own pace to build aspirations.
I see what keeps people young: work!
I'm so happy in the projects that I'm able to make, to be involved in projects like this. This isn't always where it was at for me, I started working when I was a kid. I'm just a different person now, I'm 30. I started working when I was 11 and it's a different ballgame.
Even though I had the talent, programming just didn't feel right. I never considered it very seriously. Some people get gratification from bending a machine to their will. I didn't.
Honest, simple work for young people is essential to their well-being.
Young people are this awesome, creative, hopeful untapped resource out there.
Programming is not a zero-sum game. Teaching something to a fellow programmer doesn't take it away from you. I'm happy to share what I can, because I'm in it for the love of programming.
