Nothing really surprising to me, but the burnout rate really worries me.
Also having only 5% females in the field is a shame, would love to see that increased over the next decade.

But surprised by the backlash here, but I was thinking 21 century Germany.
And in the last 20 years germany did not manage to do anything when it comes to digitalization. Hell, our schools still use overhead projectors.
I am curious how this will turn out. Germany is not known for state driven digital innovation and this is a huge project.
Even though I am highly sceptic, I hope they finally manage to get something going because Germany and whole Europe needs more independence from US hyperscalers.
I fear this will die in good old German bureaucracy though.
You could also use something like JustTheRecipe.
If you want something for free to get rid of the clutter plainoldrecipe might be a thing. Though the server was down last time I checked
That means that you are probably around 14 years old.
Rule of thumb: don't smack bottoms without consent. Goes either way
Disagree on this one, even though I can see where you are coming from. I first learnt programming in Java, and it gave me massive problems to understand the structure and typings. Obviously Java isn't the most beautiful language anyways, but once I picked up python it started to click for me on how to solve problems, because I didn't have to think about that many things. I could just go for it. Yes, my code was messy in the beginning, but I wasn't working on any important projects. It was just for fun.
So I think learning how to solve problems is as important as writing clean code. And python really helped me with that.
As much as I like the idea of pointing newcomers into the right direction, post says basically nothing at all. All 5 points can be used for literally everything not specific to coding really.
Coding and CS in general has become so huge that finding a place to start can be very overwhelming, so just linking some resources won't do the trick.
A beginner should ask himself "what do I like to do" which then would point into a direction of what programming language to use. E.g. "I want to automate my daily tasks" would point towards python. Whereas "I want to make own game' would point towards the unity world and C#. "I want to make my own website" to javascript. And obviously "I want to write almost unreadable loads of boilerplate code" would be java.
From then on your resources could make sense to explore.
Also "talk to people" is easier said then done. Most people not in a programmer bubble don't even have the access, so linking to programming communities would be nice.
Hope my 2 cents help to make it a bit more concrete

Honestly, nothing really. It feels like each year more fucked up things are happening, so I lost the positivity I had for the upcoming years.
Don't get me wrong I am in a good place personally, but with all the stuff going on in the world it sometimes feel hard to believe it's gonna get better any time soon.
