The truths that nobody told. And a fast and effective approach to a career in software engineering.
This gist debunks the idea that to be a software engineer/developer/anything you need a degree, a course, a background in math and science, a technical thinking or be very very smart, a geek, a genius... I hope it enables and motivates you to choose and follow the so easily accessible and so well paid career of a software engineer. This gist will be honest as fuck and based on my 15 years of experience in different software companies, including the one that I currently work in and have also founded. That's why it's a gist and not a medium post, and that's why it says "fuck" in it.

- Have access to a computer with a physical keyboard and an internet connection
