I understand being mentioned here.
The truth here is that decision to move in to a field can be relative.
I started as a web developer because I already knew it wasn’t easy to just start a role as a data scientist or analyst then. My aim then was get funds that will keep me going. Back then it was extremely easy to land a web developer role even if it’s small JS, CSS and html compared to data role. However during those periods data analyst or science role were few with few individuals. Compare that to now. My advice will be to learn basics of web dev before moving to data role. The reason being that you have funds to survive while learning data.
However if advising anyone on software, I will ask the person to narrow it down to blockchain technology because that’s the future and we are already in it.
For Nigerian space, there are always software role for any newbies coming to tech compared to data.
If your focus is abroad then data science/analytics is for you.
Another big disadvantage with software dev is the growth prospect. You don’t partake in management decisions which someone in data has that edge.
To me, data is integral but software is eating it

Bro Good evening, what do you mean by data is integral but software is eating it?


Please tell me about software dev

Yea it is free, but you have to apply. Even if you aren't taken it doesn't matter you can still get access to the videos and assignments. The difference is those chosen will be in real-time as classes go on and can ask questions as well.

hey how are you doing hows the bootcamp going? i'm also following the same one i found out about it a while back are you still following live or not and if you are have you made something from freelancing i'm about 3 classes deep into javascript so i'm curious

Useful thread. I like your reasoning about our perspectives.
It doesn't matter what country you're from if you're a good specialist. In general, companies shouldn't care about your ethnicity. I always thought that I'd go to the academy to become a programmer. I wanted to go into cybersecurity. But when I tried to apply in New York, I failed. I think it was because of bad grades in math. I was very frustrated and took any job I could get after school. But then, a lot of people started talking about online courses. I learned to trade, and it's my occupation now. I created my own website with tips for trading. I went to entreprise développement web to have experts from this company design a very cool and modern website with lots of cool elements.
