Re: [600 TH] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool
Thanks for the advice 
I understand what I was saying was bold. I know I will not be able to contribute much in the short term, but I am really interested and considering to take formal education on this direction, either part-time school, or buying books for self education.
I have 2 bachelor and 1 master degrees, in civil engineering and law (I know it's totally unrelated to computer ...) and am currently having enough rest to start another line of study ~~~ I have recently completed a short 40 hour course on webpage design, and have some basic idea of HTML5 and CSS3 ....
So ... for all those learnt coders out there, may I ask in what direction should I head to from scratch, if I wish to learn all about coding
Do I need something like BEng(Computer) or are there easier stuffs like diploma or self educating books that I can read to acquire the skill?? Continuous learning is just my hobby

Continuous learning is just my hobby If your desire, long term, is to contribute to p2pool; learning python is a good place to start. p2pool is written in python, and has its own version of the blockchain (share chain) and uses the same p2p design as the bitcoin network so studying bitcoind would help as well.
What others have said is true...
After a year or so you may be able to build a go-cart, but your not in the NASCAR league...
There is just way to much advanced technology flying around the bitcoin space for any individual to ever become an expert in it all. That being said, if you pick a focus area and learn how bitcoin works from a technical standpoint you would be able to contribute to p2pool (in its current state) if you knew python...
