I thought this was a gag tool, so I tried it out. And, at 51, I'm not too old to code. But, looking at the other comments for this thread, the said even at 99 he's not too old. Thanks for the little kick up the butt. BUT, I may not be too old to code, but with me, it's not the age that's the problem. I don't have any motivation or inspiration to code anything in particular. I even put up a challenge that someone could turn my interest to coding once again. I'm still waiting! Thanks for the laugh, though.

I’m sure you’ll find the motivation you need. Imagine what you could create and how many people you can help just by using your mind and a few lines of weird text! 🔥

I am 1 year older than you.
Everything about coding is new and difficult for me. I haven't a mentor and I make many mistakes. But I have motivation, a lot of motivation, I will never stop learning till I reach my dream to be a web developer. I start at the end of 2020 and I want to give up many times, but I am still in the game and I know that the success is round the corner . Be patient and consistent. May the pation be with you!
