60%+ of people who try to learn how to program end up quitting.
60%+ 试图学习如何编程的人最终会放弃。

Why? 为什么？

Is it because “programming just isn’t for everyone“?
是因为“编程并不适合所有人”吗？

Or is it because only those with experience in hard sciences can learn it?
还是因为只有那些有硬科学经验的人才能学习它？

No, neither of those are true. It’s simply due to the fact that the vast majority of people who try don’t have a basic understanding of the technology they’re going to use. 
不，这些都不是真的。这仅仅是因为绝大多数尝试的人对他们将要使用的技术没有基本的了解。

How exactly can you tackle responsive design if you don’t know how a browser works?
如果您不知道浏览器的工作原理，您究竟如何处理响应式设计？

How are you going to create a desktop application if you don’t know what makes your computer freeze constantly (besides porn, obviously)?
如果您不知道是什么让您的计算机不断冻结（显然，除了色情内容），您将如何创建桌面应用程序？

How are you going to hide your confused facial expression the next time your site’s server crashes because of a “node socket problem” in your full stack Javascript?
下次您网站的服务器因全栈 Javascript 中的“节点套接字问题”而崩溃时，您将如何隐藏困惑的面部表情？

If you’ve ever taken your computer to a technician and said “Make it work” or “It don’t work good. Me cry” then you’re exactly who needs this course.
如果您曾经将计算机带到技术人员那里并说“让它工作”或“它不好用。我哭了“，那么你正是需要这门课程的人。

Over the next 10 years the United States is expected to add over 2 million programming jobs. Jobs that pay well over $100,000 a year. And that’s just the United States (Merica’).
在未来10年内，美国预计将增加超过200万个编程工作岗位。年薪超过 100,000 美元的工作。而这只是美国（梅里卡）。

So if you’re trying to jump on the coding gravy train, put down your bronze statuette of Elon Musk standing on Mars, and start filling in the gaps in your “tech literacy”. Even if you yourself do not become a “coding ninja” yourself all the future coding ninjas you work with with thank you (and tell you to stop calling them coding ninjas).
因此，如果你想跳上编码肉汁列车，放下你站在火星上的埃隆·马斯克的青铜雕像，开始填补你“技术素养”的空白。即使你自己没有成为“编码忍者”，所有与你一起工作的未来编码忍者都会谢谢你（并告诉你不要再称他们为编码忍者）。

About your instructor: 关于您的教师：

Hi, I’m Evan Kimbrell. I too struggled to learn the basics of programming. If failing to program were a sport, I’d be on the Dream Team. 
大家好，我是Evan Kimbrell。我也很难学习编程的基础知识。如果编程失败是一项运动，我会加入梦之队。

Today, I run a web and mobile development agency called Sprintkick and over the last 4 years we’ve built and managed over 100+ web & mobile applications. 
今天，我经营着一家名为 Sprintkick 的 Web 和移动开发机构，在过去的 4 年里，我们已经构建和管理了 100+ 多个 Web 和移动应用程序。

How does one so technologically challenged manage to pull this off? Well, first off I would disagree with “technologically challenged” (come on) and second it was actually straight forward. I just had to spend a concerted amount of time learning what I needed to know about basic computer, web, and programming technology as well as modern technology trends and advanced concepts. 
一个在技术上如此具有挑战性的人是如何做到这一点的？好吧，首先我不同意“技术挑战”（来吧），其次它实际上是直截了当的。我只需要花大量的时间来学习我需要了解的基本计算机、网络和编程技术以及现代技术趋势和先进概念。

This course is an accelerated path designed to get you to “I get it” and finally start communicating correctly & effectively about technology.
本课程是一条加速路径，旨在让您“我明白了”，并最终开始正确和有效地就技术进行沟通。
