>why would it be good to learn how to think logically? What the hell use is that?!

I dunno

That doesn't help me. What can I do to help improve my life personally with a coding language? I guess having a good portfolio would help just give my resume an edge

good mental gymnastic, but there's other ways to get that. hell, business is actually pretty close in that regard. constant analytical work that heavily leans on applied knowledge and mid level mathematics.

at some point you might be using your computer for a certain task and think to yourself "gee it would be cool if I had a tool that could enable/simplify this". if you know a language you might actually be able to make such a tool yourself.

you could make video game mods. that's a fun hobby.

absolutely nothing, learn to speak and read one instead.

Never thought of it that way. I was also thinking of using it for freelance shit too incase I had business ideas involving my computer. There are still a lot of computer illiterate people there that would pay someone for something as simple as a webpage or if I think bigger, software programs and shit i don't know. I'm looking intro trying python and moving to something like java/java script. But I just need a firm grasp of what I could use them for though

As a user:
> see a problem / task you need to solve
> spend time searching for the program that solves your task
> not find anything
> give up
As a programmer:
> see problem / task you need to solve
> solve it

Work for the gubbermint, as a translator, sleeper agent and so on. Spanish is a waste of time. Most of the illegals will be deported over the next few years and French is the more widely-spoken romance language, if you're going to learn any other language than Russian you should learn that one.

as a professional dev (with no college degree, by the way), I would suggest learning a good bit about IT and CS in case you ever end up in a management position.

your IT department will love dealing with you.

I noticed that working for Amazon for awhile with all of their automation coding was definitely useful. But which specific language is best it seems there's so many to pick from. Arduino is like robotics etc right?

Bumpu desu senpai

You could be an analyst in a software development company. At least where I work, both programming knowledge and business skills are valued for analysts, and there's a mix of people with CS and business background.

Python is pretty easy for a first language.
