1:20 “Eric, what’s your name?”

I have been given to understand that computer science and information technology are two degrees almost guaranteed to give one a job and a career - fast. It helps if the degree is a good grade. I realized how important it was to learn things of economic value in the first terrible months after leaving university. I am now 71 and am learning all this much too late :)

i'm convinced that these tech companies only hire ugly people

I don't recommend anyone Rushing any degree...

If you worked at a major tech company you know the pain of not making deadlines ect ect ect. It's all not worth it. My Computer science degree is just paper to me that I was in debt for like 2 years paying back after school. Then I left these trash places to go and work for myself. Best thing I ever did. I make WAY more now then I did at any of these places. These people arnt the Top 1%. If you know, you know. Theirs people out there grinding, who are way more talented then the hacks who sit in the lounge and make others do there work. Just sayin.

It's always people with so much money telling you how much money isn't that important... She said don't spend much time on leetcode but she already solved 200 leetcode... Like that didn't help in anyway getting her through Google's front door😅😅😅

Not hiring white male, i see.

10:56 Which was the company which gave you a full time offer ?

It's always Asian people killing in IT field.

Step 1: Don't work at fang or do leet code

Souless industry, don't plan for a long stay. Millk the cow! Don't get stuck in the hamster wheel. Have an exit plan and a hard limit to stay in the industry until you're 40. The industry is souless and cutthroad. Lots of backstapping, ego filled idiots who think they are the smartest people in the room. Be like a mercenary, do the job, get paid, put yourself first. Not the company you work for. Remember: money first! Once you have acquired some wealth invest in something of your own so you can still enjoy your remaining good years how you want.

Just remember they don’t give you a 2 week notice before firing you

There is no such thing as a top 1% of software engineer

Obviuosly thats where you got your degree

You can take these lessons to other majors perfectly. It’s probably the one thing you’ll learn in college, in that you’ll learn to become independent and how to achieve your goals

Is intro of ML hard?

The girl that said "Don't Leetcode" makes me wonder how naturally adept she is at solving DS & Algos.

If you want best engineers, dont ask at FANG

Awesome video. Thank you for sharing the journey!🎉

you've got some body mass bulk! what body building supplements do you take?

I see a lot of people here talking about how they hate this field and their jobs. I've been in this field for some years now, starting as a simple SKID and progressing to an actual engineer in a great managerial position. The key is to work on projects and niches you enjoy. For example, when I took my first jobs, I was building websites. I hated it so much; I thought maybe programming was not really for me and that I didn't actually like it. Things changed when I switched to cybersecurity and hacking. I needed to learn even more to get into that niche, but that, I actually loved doing. I currently still do it, researching malware programs and vulnerabilities for different cloud infrastructures.

I can totally relate to this… graduated in CS because I love video games

I regret spending the past four years on activities that didn't contribute to the essential skills required for my job. Instead of honing the abilities that are directly relevant to my career, I invested time and effort into areas that, in hindsight, haven't advanced my professional growth. This period could have been better spent on targeted learning and practical experience to enhance my job performance and career prospects.

It makes you wonder if they are just implicitly trying to promote coding so they don’t lose subscribers 😂

yayyyy ur back!

I get inspired with your lang fluency

same. when i first started college, i was going to major in Bullshitology. maybe psychology or something; as long as it wasn't hard. but when my second year of community college started; i came to my senses and got dead serious. i was studying C and assembly language; extending what BASIC programming I did when I was 12; until I discovered skateboards and guitars. I transferred to University, and did reasonably well; and got a reputation among my peers. for a while, I did epic side projects (3D graphics libraries, MIDI, audio processors, somewhat acclaimed iPad music apps, ...). I totally relearned math in my own way, and got a serious case of Tsundoku when I had my own income. Now, my daughter is getting an Aerospace Engineering degree; and runs circles around me in everything but smashing out side-project code. I am old, and I can barely keep up now. I make good impressions with a lot of knowledge; and some crazy projects to demo. But I am now blind in one eye, and have trouble just having the energy to keep up. I have embarassing large gaps, such as Acceptable Front-End. Working on Braille tools set off alarms when I was job hunting for the first time at 50 years old. Kick ass while you can; and try to pass it on.

i wish nick had a gym membership

Glad to see you're back!

3 years of exp. Can’t land anything

Thank you, for this video. I was losing motivation for the past few days, because of rapid AI and the thing that i was just getting started, but this fuels me hopes on how and if i put in the work, i could get the outcome.

Because these thieves and hos up in this house keep stealing too much from me so I am about to level the playing field by figuring out more on their particular algorithm. I can tell the data set by days and how it's favored, but not precisely. Or why it keeps shifting. It makes no sense. I suspect psychometrics are at play but don't know how you but that into a language- you just said everything I need from what I can get on my end bc I am not trying to go to jail, just beat the game better in a fair way. - THANKS!

Math killed me in my first year.

This is why I dropped out and I tried my best. My mind went to work harder, I did and it didn't work.

The guy at 9:15 seemed to be a genrelist because when he was naming the intricate details beside HTML , CSS and java script he couldn't even speak the name of frameworks and libraries ... I have not watched his videos but 221k subscribers ! , Seriously is not deserving

TLDW: Why learn to code? 1st guy - money, 3rd guy - money, 2nd guy - vengeance (with a side of money)

I thought I’d be good at coding but right now I can only manage to understand things like html and css and a teeny bit of js for a website I’m making

These influencers contributed to the saturation of the CS SWE job market

You are UA-camrs not software engineers

It sure is “fun” for UA-camrs. It is definitely fun to play with things but that doesn’t pays the bills. What pays the bills is an actual Job. And solving hard problems at work where people might not be as nice and there is a lot of pressure to get things done, it sometimes isn’t that “fun”.

great video kevin!

"In any kind of field, when you start out as a beginner, there is always something that can replace you really quickly. You've got to get beyond that first, second, third year of experience before you start becoming really, really valuable. So just strive for that". I love this! New subscriber now. Thanks!

Hello sir. Sir I am not good at maths so can I learn and practice dsa and actually become good at it??

Yep, this is me.

5:03 I really missed that clap of Nick white.

Thank you for this video man, you're awesome!🎸

AI will create more jobs not less

I’ve been a dev for six years now and at this point, I hate this job so much. It’s not even about money. I find the programming industry to be soulless, and as someone who grew up in the projects, I don’t get along with 90% of the folks, I’ve worked with for one reason or another. I always tell people who asked me if they should do it or not, that they should they don’t have a passion or something that they love doing. Just because maybe if I didn’t love writing and making music, there would’ve been space in my soul for me to have a passion for this shit

Amazing video! Its been 6-7 months since I started taking coding seriously.
