Could not have said it better, apart from only been doing it a couple years. The only thing I would add is that it can be easy to follow practises that are no longer relevant or miss-guided in todays stack.

In my experience, coming from a technical mindset/background (STEM) helped to pick up software development quite quickly. However, one should not be discouraged to try, or aspire to something larger than what has been achieved by others. You, do you :).

Hipkiss i didn't want to make a conjecture, about how long it will take, or how fast someone should be. I agree about wrong practices, or just misguided approaches can hold you back, but even here I don't like absolute assumption.

I'm from a hacker attitude, so basically being free and trying things out was always the base of my programming. Others are more formal, I don't even wanna go as far to tell people who is better suited, because I don't know the metrics or measures to quantify it and even if I would, I still wouldn't want to discourage them :D

j In that regard my comment does seem poorly constructed. My apologies, and I applaud your efforts, and have thus amended my comment accordingly. :)
