Cut the crap on tutorial hell - how I stopped copying code after 7 months of YouTube
I used to follow along with every Python tutorial line by line, pausing the video to type exactly what the guy had. Last Tuesday I finally tried writing a to-do list app from scratch without any guide and it took me 3 hours but I actually understood why each function worked. Has anyone else just ripped off the training wheels and seen their skills jump way faster?

Oh geez, going solo on that to-do list app huh? I remember my first time without a tutorial, it was like learning to ride a bike but the bike was on fire and I forgot where the brakes were. But hey, at least now you know why that for loop actually loops instead of just copying it from some guy named Dave on YouTube.
