about myself or maybe I think it would make me feel happier.

Maybe I think I would like using computers more if I were a good programmer. But, there must be great programmers that don’t like computers, who don’t feel good about themselves, who wished that had chosen some other profession besides programming a computer.

So being a better programmer would probably not make me like computers better or feel better about myself or do much of anything except allow me to get a job as a programmer.

But, I am sure I think well if I were a better programmer I would enjoy everything more, flowers would smell better, the sun would look better, bird sounds would be more stunning.

I suppose I wanted to program in the first place to make games, and then I learned about machine learning. And I like that to.

Though I don’t think I wanted to learn how to program to make myself feel better or that it would make me feel better about myself.

And if I never become a passable programmer its not the end of the world. There are lots of things to do in the world.

I wonder if I would regret it if I never become a good programmer. Probably not. There are other things that I like better than programming.

Such as cooking, gardening, astronomy, learning about world war 2, drawing, making music.

So I don’t know what I am getting at in this post. Maybe its that I want to stop thinking that programming is a magical pill that when I get good at it my life will suddenly be so much better.

and I still have not done much programming with python. Yesterday I read about data visualization and machine learning on kaggle.

So this year I have not wrote any of my own programming code. I am sure at the beginning of the year I wanted to write code. That has not happened yet. There are still about 6 months left in the year. So Who knows I could still write some code this year.

One of the reasons I wanted to get a computer all those years ago was to learn how to program. Well its been many many years and I still can’t program.

Though I still think I want to learn how to program.

I used to want to learn 20 programming. Why I wanted to do that I am not sure. Probably so I could say that I knew 20 programming languages. Well that did not work out to well.

And every year I hope that this will be the year that I will finally learn to program. That has not happened either.

So maybe I will learn to program. Maybe I won’t. Its not the end of the world if I never learn how to program. Though I wish I were a good programmer.

I say this is going to be the year that I learn to program. I wanted to write my own code this year except that has not happened. Sure I have written code while following along with a tutorial but, I have not written any of my own code.

So I hope that changes.

that this will be the year that I make a game or some other programming project. And here it is almost the end of the year and nothing.

Sure I have gone through some of the courses on kaggle. But, I have not made my own projects. Any project of mine is nowhere to be found. Because I have not made one yet. Or at least finished a project I have started.

There are still about 3 weeks to the end of there year so I have time to make a little project or at least start one so I can have something to show programming wise for 2021.

I know I want to make games, and learn more about machine learning, A.I., Data science. I know I want to get good at using python, and pharo. Now all I need to do is get to working making a project.
