I am currently getting familiar with the Android Operating System, writing Android apps using Android Studio. It's going well most of the time, but every once in a while, when I start up Android Studio, it will start as a background service. (No user's interface!) Then I have go into services to stop it manually, before I can restart the studio. Why does it do this? 
Android Studio is a fantastic IDE (based on Jetbrains' IntelliJ). But this behavior is just weird.

I've been using it for many years and I've never encountered this behavior. I couldn't begin to suggest anything that you probably haven't already tried.
When the app is closed, check Task Manager to make sure studio64.exe and adb.exe are all gone. I've gone through several major revisions without issue so even making sure you're up-to-date seems a moot point. Has it always behaved this way for you?

Yes, but I have only been using it for 2 or 3 months.

I can't stand stuff like that. I use Android Studio quite often & have used it for at least 5 years so I've been thru a lot with it.
It is probably some setting in your idea.properties file -- found wherever you've installed Studio (c:\program files\etc)
Here are more details that may help you find an answer: Advanced configurationβIntelliJ IDEA[^]
But, there is another thing (that could mess up your installation) that could help.
There's a setting to tell it that this is a first-time run (since installation) to make it "configure".
You can disable that by adding this line as the last line of your idea.properties file:
disable.android.first.run=true
Then start it up & see what you get.

Thanks. I have added that last line to idea.properties.
Now we will see!

OK. I found the cause of the problem:
If you start an emulator and shut down Android Studio without shutting down the emulator: That is when it happens! Next time you start AS it runs in the background and you don't see a user's interface.

I've never had issues running AS on Linux (my regular desktop) but had many issues running on Windows.
However, just updated AS a couple of days ago (on Linux) & I had an issue where I started the Emulator and then I needed to stop it but it wouldn't stop. But a similar problem where the emulator window was nowhere to be found.
I had to go and kill all the processes to be able to start it again.
I think this all may be due to the way the emulator "runs inside" AS now, where it used to be a separate process & window.
It's quite annoying.

My first thoughtβ¦
Whichever impostor web site you loaded it from is trying to run crypto mining software in the background. π

No. Task Manager shows there is almost no activity in the background.

Picked up this book, Refactored: My attempt at breaking into tech during the rise of the boot camp[^], at the local Barnes & Noble & read it in 3 days.
It is the author's experience of joining TechElevator[^] ($15,000 - $20,000 USD) 4 month boot camp which promises 92% placement with job of average $58,000 / yr salary.
That's shocking to me, since a CS degree would cost far more & take 4 years.
The author had no tech experience before going to boot camp (worked at B&N & grocery store).
Spoiler: The author does indeed get a job offer (and accepts) for $60K / year!
I'm a bit shocked because I have (some college education) & it took me quite a few years to work to an equivalent level.
Additionally, the skills they learn in 4 months are very limited & you can tell the author did not have a "full-grasp" of what he'd learned. Just a surface level.
What do you think? Is that expected kind of salary for entry-level IT?

I don't know if it is expected salary for entry level, but I would think that cost of living now has sky rocketed and even $60K seems like too little to me. Mortgage/rent, car/gas, food, medical, etc. on less than $60K? yikes!!
My first gig was in the mid-high 30K per year but that was like 20 years ago. Food prices have doubled here in NY in less than 1 year. $8 omellete now costs $14-$16 dollars. 3 bags of groceries now costs $240 where it used to be $130.
I can go on and on, but why bother...

Yeah, I started out making $5/hour building computers, then, 1 year later (1992) moved on to tech support making $24K/yr.
3 years later (1996) I moved into QA & moved to a new place. I told the hiring VP that I'd like to make $27K (I was doing QA test automation (via SQARobot) before most people knew it even existed. The VP said, "no, we'll pay you you're current salary." I accepted bec. other software company was moving to another state.

That's about where I started too. I didn't stay in that bracket very long though. I didn't really have a taste for testing, so I just did my time until they realized I could code.

my daughter just completed a SQL course/certification, with some guidance from dear old dad(me). She started her first job about 2 months ago as a SQL 'programmer' report writer etc... she is making nearly 50k. Middle of Iowa decent income here actually.
I recommend to every young person who asks me about how to get into this field. First do you like sitting in front of a computer all day typing? Second do you like problem solving. If so then go either to a two year college and get a trade school type degree or go self study and get a certification in any programming language you like. It works. It works for my daughter and it has worked for a few of her friends who are in the field.

I feel the same way -- I'm a self-taught dev with almost 2yr CIS degre (I'm missing Mgmnt 205 class & COBOL III) and I'd have a degree.
Thankfully there are still some apprentice-ship type jobs in IT that if the person simply has the skills then they can do the work -- and not have to pay $75K for a 4 year degree.
Also, congrats to you & your daughter. Very smart choices.

Location? 60k in NY or LA are below poverty threshold. I'd get 1.5 times my current salary here in Italy, and my salary is already high for Italian standards.
