I started working with Perl. I tried learning C at the same time and found myself bouncing back and forth quite a bit.
Try taking a look at a bunch of languages and choose what appeals to you. Learn that one, but don't stop looking at the othe languages. You need to find where you feel comfortable - there is no hardfast rule for learning; your brain is your own.
Just remember not to get to absorbed in one language. Once you start learning it, try to relate what is similar between the different languages and when you feel comfortable don't forget to challenge yourself in ASM (assembly). You should probably take a look at C when you're doing this.
C is where it's at. I'm not saying to start here, but you will need to learn this to become an effective coder. I personally feel you will not become an effective developer without it. (coder != developer)
Most importantly; have fun, embrace frustration, and don't forget the basics (data structures, search, sort, etc...).
Let's see. Perhaps due to a bunch of people who can't control their urge to immortalize or trendify (yes, I made that one up all by myself) certain technology devices. Especially when there is so much hype over the reasoning behind it - ESPECIALLY when it has to do with music.
Let's face it - there is nothing really all that special about a device you can listen to music on. People are just pawns. Welcome to the world.
Interesting view and discussion that's is transpiring here today. If this is the case, I feel much better about my existence. After all, if what you're saying is true, then you must have been instructed by God to be telling us here today - that would make you a Prophet.
Furthermore, my agnostic point of view makes me feel much more comfortable in that it was God's decision for me to be agnostic and not my own. I guess you could say "Thank God" whatever happens, I'm released from consequences as it was God's plan that led me to my beliefs.
So all of that biblical mumbo-jumbo can be chucked out the door, because no matter who does or does not believe in God, it was his decision - ALL the way down to the quark level.
Sorry to sound like a troll, but it just seems to me that Christians _always_ defeat themselves when they talk about their religion.
It's an excellent exercise in porting Linux to new devices. We need people like this who are willing to flex their expertise and knowledge of embedded systems.
