I've been looking through github to search for solution on a problem I have for a project. I look at these developer's repositories and they got incredible and original projects and systems that I could never come up with from scratch. Like I need to look at couple of source codes to build on top of it and construct something that is new. For example let's say I was working for the backend team for spotify, I wouldn't be able build their completely new idea into fruition. I'd be constantly googling and looking at other people's codes to work off on.
I built a AI based Gomoku board game and some OpenGL stuff in C++ to show off on my repository, but I had to look at pre-existing projects on github and a bunch of youtube videos to derive off for my project. I would look at the code to understand it then write it from scratch using memory applying what I had understood. If I don't understand something, I'd go research on it.
How do these guys code this with nothing but an idea? I think I'm just retarded and lack creativity.
Recently I've been learning web3 and solidity so I can build my own DEX but I gotta learn 3 other nig*er languages just to create the website supporting the contract. React.js, html/css is so so bullshit and tedious. And I can't build this from scratch, I'm looking at sources and guides that accomplishes exactly what I'm doing. It's too difficult to come up with that shit on your own.
I was talking to an alumni who created a web3/ethereum based project for his final year. And he said he worked on ipfs and a iot nft marketplace and he did it from just reading documentation. Wtf I could never do that.
It probably explains why I couldn't get any internships and got shit scores on the application exams. One of my classmate has nothing but a shitty portfolio website with their shitty console programs, got a good score on the exams and managed to get a summer internship. I've been rejected by ~30 companies, 0 interviews.
