Ask HN: How persistent and smart do you have to be to learn to program?
I'm a beginner trying to learn Ruby on Rails. Most tutorials show who to .reverse strings of text. I want to create user logins not reverse text!
I usually go through the course and never understand how I am going to use them when buildings apps. Learn how to print 1+1 is boring and demotivates me. When am I going to learn the good stuff?
Has anyone else had this problem?
