newbie web dev. proficient in front end: html5, css3. bootstrap3. learning back end with python3, flask, apache2, mysql, and other tools. want to jumpstart my career in 2016 with my newfound skills.

what im noticing is when trying to learn 1 thing, it leads you to have to learn 10 other things just to get that one thing to work, and each of those 10 things require another 2 things each to work. ie to learn 1 thing, a specific web development path, you end up having to learn 100 technologies. welp, guess Ill delve into the endless series of convoluted rabbit holes known as programming. facepalm.
