       @Wolven don't worry, years from now, when the reason for learning all this is just a shadow of a memory, regex will come up in an almost entirely unrelated situation so that you can bust out this knowledge and have people around you go "why do you know that?"

       @futurebird 🤔 maybe you already do something like this, but I wonder if some sort of preamble to set expectations around errors will help? Something like "computer programming can look like math but the the instant feedback makes it feel very different. Eventually that will feel like a good thing, but know that you may get error messages when you dont expect them and that a large part of learning to code is learning how to read and understand what those error messages are saying."

       @freya @futurebird I'm not saying the Brads of the world are blameless, but we gotta at least throw some shade at the product managers as well, especially if we're talking about every shifting UX.
