For getting a grip in current web development, I would recommend fullstackopen.com - it's a free online course by the University of Helsinki and starts from basically zero, and gives you a lot of insights into web dev.
It may take some time, but it's really worth it and an overall great course.

You certainly have a valid point and I agree with you, but it is not nice to call people idiots.
Story: I was on a bus once, another passenger was a guy with a big McD Coke. We got off at the same station. Here, each station has a trash can.
So this guy walks right by the trash can and drops his fucking coke right next to it. He could have extended his arm like 10 cm more, and the coke would have gone into the trash can. But he chose to drop it on the floor.
This was years ago, and I think this day broke my faith in humanity a little.
Manchen Impulsen muss man einfach nachgehen!
So where can I send a sample now?
I still feel addressed when there's something about "young people". At 34.
I changed from shift work in industry to a desk job in IT, in my early 30s after having worked shifts for 8 years. I always liked shiftwork, the varied times and the active nature of the job never got boring. I chose the industry because I always knew I would hate a desk job, being in an office all day.
And it really sucks, I cannot stand being in an office and working at a desk for 8 hours a day. Pay is good, the job very interesting, the company and coworkers are nice, nothing to complain - but man, I fucking hate office environments. Luckily, we have a lot of flexibility and can work remotely, or take frequent breaks at the office, and generally are flexible in how to structure the work day.
Without all this, strictly having to be in an office for 8 hours each day with rigid times - I would not last long.
This kind of reads like meditation, these words somehow have a calming effect. Like a call to be conscious and just take in the current moment and the surrounding vibes.
Also, I'm kind of high right now, so maybe it's just that, but thanks for your insights!
