Am I too old to do proper programming?
No you’re not • DHH • John Backus • Me
How long until I’m a ninja? • It takes 10 years to become an expert • It takes way less than 10 years to become employable • It doesn’t take a lot of time to have fun
How to impress your future employer? • Working websites > Readable code > Ideas • Attend conferences • Learn english • Github, Stack Overflow etc. • Write a popular gem
You can learn programming whenever you want. But you would finish later than those who started early.
