Caretaker to jr. Software developer /u/True_Blueberry9614 CSCQ protests reddit

I’m currently a caretaker for an elderly relative and I work part time on the side. I’ve been teaching myself how to design and code websites for the past month now. I’m nowhere near good enough to start applying for positions yet but I’m interested in eventually getting a jr. front end or software developer position once I’ve finished the projects I have setup for myself and updated my portfolio. I also have a degree in an unrelated field and experience in that field however it’s not a field I’m interested in. My goal is to learn as much as I can with code so I can get good enough to actually be considered for the positions I want.

What are some ways I can make myself a valuable candidate for a junior developer role? What really makes someone stand out for said roles and is it even feasible to make such a drastic career change in the current state of our employment market?

Does anyone else get exhausted by the repetition of the never ending backlog and your contributions being measured by tickets done? /u/RothIRALadder CSCQ protests reddit

A software engineer is sort of like the brick layer in a company. You build the actual product. Without your hands the business doesn’t have a thing to sell. Your output can only be measured in direct contributions to the product. Because of that it’s hard to bullshit.

Sometimes I wish I had a “fake job”. A “fake job” is having meetings about meetings, writing emails, giving status updates, making powerpoints to other departments, making inconsequential decisions, and pretending to look busy. You’re barely doing anything. Maybe the pay is less, and the job security is worse, but that backlog isn’t staring at you.

Is this a sign it’s time for me to pivot into management?

need help changing some code /u/Yelll00 Python Education

need help changing some code /u/Yelll00 Python Education

so im making a pedal with a single keyboard switch and a pi pico using kmk firmware, its worked so far, the issue is i need the pedal to be able to be held down and register a key for as long as its held down, i dont know if i explained that properly. basically when i hold down the switch i want it to hold down that key because its a push to talk button. my knowledge in python is very minimal so apologies if what im doing here doesnt make sense. ill attach a link to a pastebin with the code on it. im also wondering if i can assign it to be other keys like function keys. but for the most part im just concerned about it functioning as a proper push to talk. any help received is appreciated.
