When I was in college I discovered the flask mega tutorial and fell in love with programming. Switched from an economics degree to software engineering and now work in the industry.

Thank you for the work you put in.



Also discovered flask in college but was a year away from finishing a marketing degree.

I'm now a SWE with just a marketing degree!


I am a SWE without any degrees. :D I dropped out to... study.

Yeah, our education system sucks that much.

Economist here, started to learn to code as an elaborate way to procrastinate on my master's thesis after I've quit playing videogames.
