Hello all, Like many of you I am a fellow creator. Im young in age, naive in experience and still think like a child trying to break free from the constraints growing up puts on us. With such qualities I am always coming up with ideas/hypothesis which I love testing. For the most part a simple google or flick of the page answers my questions. However, this time round was different. You see, this time round I couldn't find an answer, I couldn't find a research paper or anything. This time round I was forced to ditch this free rider mentality and do my own research. I have produced a google form. It shouldn't take longer than 5 mins to complete and asks some simple questions. Questions which when put together build a very powerful picture. I would be immensely grateful if you could take take 5 minutes from your day to go through this survey and and answer truthfully. This hypothesis was born from a place of boredom and a sense of being lost. Creating this survey and carrying out this study has become some sort of an antidote. Though right now, as people work across the clock to discover the biggest antidote ever known to mankind might not be considered to be a good time. I know that if this works out then you would have helped develop mine. Thanks in advance to all that partake in this. Link to survey: https://forms.gle/s4sagsuUTZpes5h38

Hi All, Like many founders I find that I am off the non technical breed and often finding a technical co-founder who shares the same passion for an idea can be time confusing and difficult. As such, I have decided that to overcome this (to a certain extent) it is probably wise that learn some code by establishing the basics and then expanding my journey on this path. I confident that not a single person was born with the ability to code and so there must have been a starting point and consistent practising stage for everyone who can now code proficiently. So my questions to those people and anyone on this journey would be three pronged: 1) What did you do at the start which built consistency in practice going forward? These could be tools, tutorials, projects etc. 2) How did you balance learning a new language whilst carrying on with your day to day activities? (This assumes you are not a full-time CS student or similar) 3) If you were to start again today, from scratch. What would you do differently and why? I look forward to reading your answers and am open to any suggestions. Thanks, Hasan

Hello! I am a 20 year old from London who has been a part of this community since 2014. Over the past year as I have entered the world of business I have found a growing urge to find a mentor. Someone to speak to about work and career development going forward. In the tech space a lot of founders do have mentors so I wanted to ask how do you go about finding them? How do you know that this person is the right mentor for you? (PS: Feel free to get in touch if you want to speak about mentorship further)
