Try watching twitch instead of actually playing games. You can get work done at the same time and still get your fix.

The key is to just start programming, immediately. Whatever you're learning, or whatever small project you want to do. Don't waste time on courses. Read books if you want, but make sure to code a lot

>muhh autismmmmmmmm

I endorse this meme.

>>58735879
Fuck it
I'm going to find whatever they're using to teach children to code nowadays and start from the bottom because I'm retarded and lack an attention span long enough to make sense of programming guides

i hope you suffocate on pussy on your trip

Do an online course preferably where there are (noncompulsory) assignment deadlines set for you. These deadlines are likely targeted at people in jobs (like each week will require only 5 hours of your time), so if you're NEET and can't stick to deadlines or even finish the course in half the allotted time then consider doing something else with your life. Take up an artistic medium perhaps. For maximum interest in the course make sure you A.) are actually interested in it, and B.) have some kind of use for it/see ways of applying it in the near future.

Don't do Web dev. Dont.

I recommend no one on this board do Web Development, it is a rapidly dying trade that is being simplified by drag and drop user friendly GUI's. If you're not using those then you're using libraries and ez mode "insert class here for RESPONSIVE" shit like bootstrap.

It will soon be a cheap and inexpensive labor that will in turn pay the same.

I took CS50 on edx, and some Free Code Camp, now I have an internship in webdev. AMA
