I was just pondering on why I had not opened my computer to continue my js training throughout the whole of today (gmt +1 timezone) and refreshed my google feed and saw this article. As a self taught programmer (Bsc in industrial chemistry) I have to even the smallest capacity experienced most of the issues listed here.
I have designed a few landing pages with html and css and deployed them on my git page, but nothing really major. Been thinking of getting a full time internship but it's near impossible to find one.
Long story short, thank you for the advice I'll adhere to them.
While I'm really good at chemistry, I have always loved tech, since I could remember, from smartphones to pc to softwares etc. As early as freshman year, my coursemates used to think I was a computer science undergrad, because all my friends were there. Had a chance to learn programming as early as 2017 but never acted, that was a terrible decision on my part, now I'm doing what I should've done years ago.
I ask, because one of my best friend is a geologist and he started programming to solve problems of geologists. He mentioned that there are so much stuff that could be automated and improved in his field.
If you really love web development, than go for it. But if programming is your thing, then I would look into problems that chemists have to solve that could be made better with software.
I don't think I want to get into that tho, I like front-end web development, I want to work in as a web developer, maybe over time switch into app development with react native, or backend with node.js.
Right now I'm just searching for remote internships to help further my progress.

Why the switch from Industrial Chemistry to Web Dev?
While I'm really good at chemistry, I have always loved tech, since I could remember, from smartphones to pc to softwares etc. As early as freshman year, my coursemates used to think I was a computer science undergrad, because all my friends were there. Had a chance to learn programming as early as 2017 but never acted, that was a terrible decision on my part, now I'm doing what I should've done years ago.
But why Web Dev?
I ask, because one of my best friend is a geologist and he started programming to solve problems of geologists. He mentioned that there are so much stuff that could be automated and improved in his field.

Just my 2 cents.
Cheers
