So, how’s your understanding of the whole system your python and bash scripts run on, after that?
I learned python and bash over about 6 months.
I’m not a phenomenal coder yet but it’s definitely doable. I didn’t take a class or read any books I just tried to code shit until eventually the anger and frustration lead to a moment where it kind of clicked and I was just like, writing line after line after line of code.
It was so weird. When I woke up that morning I felt like I’d never learn and then I could just kind of do it.

Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted. Seems a really relevant question for anyone looking to learn a low level programming language. I’d say it’s fairly in depth but I don’t know what I don’t know. I get, at a high level, how memory addresses work, understand what ram does, I get the concept of hyperthreading and have written a couple of python scripts that have used it for so applications…
I’ve fucked around with a lot of hex tables.
I took formal logic in uni and while I sucked st it I did learn a lot about the fundamental logic underlying it all

Have you already heard of our Lord and Saviour, the Wizard, and the scripture known as The Wizard Book?

I have not. I’m about to start learning rust so this could be useful. Thanks!

The Rust book is also good at teaching coding, but it would be more of a jump into cold water.

I mean, I literally learned python and bash by just kind of going for it, so this sounds good.
