How do I not become a web developer? (lemmy.ml)

First of all. This is not an insult to the web developers. I live in Nepal where most of the job vacancies are for fronted/backend developers. Even through referees I only get web dev related roles for intern. Every path leads to rome here.

I have no other interests except linux, scripting and web scraping and that's a big problem. I really have no idea what I should learn or make. I am in my final year and I am feeling this sense of urgency which is annoying and overwhelming.

What should I do? I want to learn about Linux and OSes in depth but I also need to be employable. Also, after getting a job how do you learn new things. Since your job will be taking a huge chunk of your time. Education is a scam and I am a removed.

How is social security in Nepal? What would happen if you didn't work at all?

[–] lemmylemonade@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

You not get money for being unemployed in Nepal. Pension is only guranteed for government workers. People in private sector have (SSF) which stands for social security fund. A part of their salary + larger part from the employer is deposited there. Other than that we have "bridda bhatta" old age allowance, disability, single women allownace (just finding out this exists, wow!), and a couple more. The people in goverment sector have it a 100 times better. Better pay and lesser work. And let's not forget the pension from our tax money.
