I started learning programming by myself years ago when programming was very promising. There were no hints of layoffs in the horizon. No AI bs.
Fast forward I learned C++ (my favourite), C#, JS and TS (+ react), Unreal Engine. And a bunch more.
I refused to go to the uni, because I was learning everything by myself, and because i already have a degree and a master degree in Architecture. I was also told that a bootcamp would be enough (good old days).
Now that I feel ready to work, and was very eager to get any position as long as it involves any of the languages above, every is saying its super tough out there.
Some of my contacts told me back in the days that programming was the best, etc… But now they are telling me maybe i should go back to architecture.
This life and reality is stating to feel like a simulation, where whatever i do, the reality bends itself to throw me in some other direction.
I just want to work and code, I feel like coding by myself in my projects, although im happy with that, its a waste.
What would you do in my situation?
I feel like i can adapt to any challenge and can make a game in any engine or language.
These are some of the projects I have done, not all:
