I'm considering learning to code in order to make a career change, but every bit of research I do leads to more questions. Looking for an Ag in the industry to let me pick their brain.
Quick background: I'm a journalist by training but have spent a decade teaching high school English in Austin. The only programming I've ever attempted was Fortran during a freshman engineering class; however, I'm tech savvy and think I could handle the challenge.
What I'm looking for: Flexibility (maybe telecommuting), more pay, a challenge.
My little bit of research as led me to think web development is where I should look with something like Ruby on Rails. If you work in this or other areas, I would love to ask you some questions.
Please PM me. (Cross posted on Job Network)
