I started the cs50 course just hearing from you. I feel very blessed to have this course. Thanks a ton for your advise. My dream is to become a software engineer and I would like to work from home like you..

[@Kumicuci]

Me also man

[@codeWithJonathan-JS]

Don't give up no matter how hard it gets !!!!!!

[@almedat2694]

Cs50?… what’s that? I’ve been doing the html courses in freecodecamp but idk what that is, can you please tell me?

[@EmJayAnieta]

Same! I’m on C right now 😅

[@Pramix]

Same plan here : 1. Harvard SC50; 2. Princeton Algorithms; 3. 100 Days of Python Code

[@crazyphantom15]

Dude thank you for describing the tickets. Being a non engineer working on it, helped to know what to look forward too

[@Jessalyn032]

I’ve only been at this for a year but fully relate to everything you’ve said. Great description of tickets and tasks… praying the simplest solution works lol. Also, how important your attitude is and being the person people want to work with.

[@AZisk]

this was a really fun video. nice work

[@InternetMadeCoder]

thanks!

I learned to code at the age of 40 after leaving the banking industry; I started out as a QA Automation engineer, then became a front end dev, then went back to QA because I enjoyed it more. It's only been 5 years on this journey. Today, I'm kinda in the same position you were-I work for a big multinational corporation, I have a lot of flexibility on my job, and can(and have) worked all over as a Digital Nomad (my home base is in the USA, my house is here, etc)-but because I don't feel like I'm making a huge impact, as I did in banking, I am so unfulfilled and sometimes feel a little ungrateful because many would love to be in my position. It's funny how once you get what you thought you always wanted can turn out to be not the thing you really want aftter all.

[@AgiAndMiaCats]

I discovered your channel few weeks ago and I really like your videos. I'm learning to code by myself and I would like to get as far as you did. You did a great job! You are a big inspiration for me. Anyway I just ordered the book :)

[@Fortnitecrab.]

Any updates brother

[@AgiAndMiaCats]

@@Fortnitecrab. Im not able to find a job bc in my country they don't hire juniors.

[@kollainamerica]

I really enjoyed your perspective and sharing your insights about what it takes to be a software engineer. What you said is so right as a developer my self in new york its very relatable.

[@joeshmo546]

Programming != hacking;

[@alexghita1980]

True

[@DerekCook178]

Thank you for all of your videos. This is something I would really like to do but always scared to fail or get overwhelmed easily. I am watching as many of your videos as I can and apply them at my own pace to learn. Thank you for being so awesome and helping.

[@data842]

Dear influencer! First of all, thank you very much for being valuable and motivative! You perfectly mentioned meanings like working hard as much as we can while we are young! Recently I’ve graduated from UK university, then had 1 year gap to help my parents, then started to learn new skills like SMM and Data Analytics. Failed 3 times to apply for CS or Data Science for different universities. Didn’t give up and applied for Data Assistant position to help Stanford Business School professor. It’s still interesting and very insightful position but I want to move forward and want to learn a coding and hit the software engineering job! 2023 needs to be full of learning!

[@InternetMadeCoder]

let's make 2023 the year of learning !

[@data842]

For sure!!! Self report is perfect but when people paired it’s more motivated. Would be great to have a community of learners

[@Brlitzkreig]

Wow, this is the only video I've seen that actually talks about what the tasks might be working as a Developer. I've had to scourer the internet

[@InternetMadeCoder]

[@e.s.3904]

Thank you so much for sharing this. You are lucky to know what you want at this age. Iam 36 now and just figure out, that I like to code. Obviously I don't got that much time for train that skill because... mature stuff to do 😆 I really appreciate this kind of videos. Keep going on show us your day routine 👍

[@computerscience8795]

your story inspires me.

[@ОленаДоманська-и3х]

Your sense of humor is great 👍❤️

[@MrLegendaryAyo]

This video put my mind at ease when looking for my first position as a software engineer, particularly with what to expect tasks to be like. Thanks for the insight 👍🏾

[@justnuraddin]

I'm from Uzbekistan. I like your content. Keep going ☺️

[@InternetMadeCoder]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@anthonypaul6148]

That part when you came back from the gym and opened up your laptop to check your Slack messages with dread? As a fellow software engineer, I felt that. :P

[@Brlitzkreig]

I'd love to see a video on the Books and content that you recommend

[@bethdimonti]

[@Rained_Out]

Have you integrated chatgpt into your toolbox for your day-to-day workload?

[@InternetMadeCoder]

yes, more and more I am using it

[@Rained_Out]

@@InternetMadeCoder one last question: Is your employer ok with it being used by you and other software engineers? I’m just curious what the overall attitude is among your colleagues.

[@InternetMadeCoder]

I haven't asked them for permission tbh haha - no reason why it wouldn't be fine as long as you don't type any confidential code into it (ie, use it to ask questions mostly)

[@jathebest2835]

Great video as always! Tuomas, if you learned Django, could you upload a video about it? I'm heading towards my intermediate level of Python and thinking of learning it in depth before applying for a software engineer position. (+With my Frontend knowledge and React) Maybe your opinion and thought on the Python tool would be really valuable for beginners like us :)

[@adriel115_]

Ngl little discouraged learning code right now because ChatGPT, I’m a junior in High School and i feel like by the time I get a job it AI might be developed enough to the point where demand for software engineering jobs will be less and pay will be less. Idk what are your guy’s thoughts on this.

[@wrightsolution]

AI is not going to replace software engineers any time soon. So don't worry and keep working on your dream.

Hello, I am also learning programming, and the language I am learning is C++. I really resonate with your video. At 2:35 in the video, I saw a very beautiful software, but I am not sure what it's called. Is it Figma? It doesn't look like it.

[@Brlitzkreig]

Hello, Sir, I'm just wondering where does all the work come from in these companies. Like I know some if it is maintenance and some of it is new products but what other work would make up most of the tickets and what sort of ratio is there between the two?

[@InternetMadeCoder]

we are working on a project that we are building so it's all related to that

[@karimmaamar7782]

How long should you work in on or more companies before trying to go freelancing because I've heard it's pretty hard to do

[@InternetMadeCoder]

you can start trying to get into freelancing as soon as you want, no need to work in a job first

[@karimmaamar7782]
