> “are you ready to be bad at this for a long time?” Oh, I love this so much. It communicates so many important things in one go. My kids must be absolutely sick of me saying in a dozen different ways "you just have to do it a lot." This also reminds me of how I've often responded when people ask me about learning to code. I ask them if they're ok with sitting in front of a computer for many hours. It sounds obvious, but most people (in my experience) simply aren't ok with that, and hadn't considered it. |

I wonder if this puts people off who shouldn't be put off.
I certainly don't think I'd want that for myself if asked. But coding doesn't feel like that. Sure, I sit in front of a computer for hours, but productive sessions generally involve losing track of time and realising you've been sat there for hours
