From what I have watched, the video uploader doesn’t say you shouldn’t learn how to program. But you do have to combine it with something else, like soft skills or learning to coach someone. I suppose they say that after a while, programming becomes less cool (they compare it to Excel), but that doesn’t mean you will ever find it boring. Plus, I think he is right that few people care if you can write code because it’s just a middle step in building a tool.

As someone who is a beginner and interested in doing something in tech, my biggest problem is too many different choices of what to do and an overwhelming amount of contradictory information.

[@veeker77]

Too many choices make choising hard, if not impossible, right ? Best advice I think I could give out is pick something, anything, and push into it to practice. You don't care if you could have done a better choice, your time won't be wasted, because you re gonna gain knowledge and confidence, and those overwhelming amount of contracdictory information will become big amount of information... Yeah sadly there will always be too many choices :D

[@DapperSapper515]

Watch Alex Lee and Coding with John. Best KZbinrs with accurate information and literally break coding down to a level that a 1st grader can understand. That being said, what interests you? Gaming? Designing a website? Creating the functionality of said website? Creating programs? Try them all and see what you have the most fun with. For example, I tried doing some front end stuff. Time was going slow and I wasn’t really having any fun. Now, I do back end stuff and my shifts feel like 2 minutes, and I have a lot of fun with it. *Edit:* I’m putting BroCode on here as well. He’s a bit harder to understand for a beginner, but he’s still a good plethora of information once you get the basics down - he’s really good for getting you to that “intermediate” stage in your coding journey. But that’s just my opinion… 🤷🏻‍♂️

It's a no brainer. That's why following other creators that may go into a little bit too much obsessive detail in frameworks and such has served me a lot better than continuing to follow the people who have been trying to "land a faang job" or get started in freelance for the last 6 or 7 years.

One KZbin tech will say "You need to learn this". Then another would chime in and say, "No he needs to learn this" and then a world war 3 type of argument erupts and then I finally tell both of them to get lost cause neither one had answered my question. That's what people are encountering on here who are just trying to get started for whatever reason they may have. Right now, my interests are leaning towards HTML and CSS for web development. They also don't tell people that it's a team effort. Sure one person can design and publish an open source website but to build an entire network and everything else associated with takes an entire team.

And the whole thing about spending every minute of your free time coding is crazy as well. Sure it's fun when you're a beginner but once you learn 2 or 3 languages really well you realize most languages are pretty similar, they just differ in syntax. Architects and engineers are not expected to spend their free time drawing blueprints or building bridges "just for fun"... they are also not expected to go through 5 hour technical interviews or 8 rounds of interviews where you must talk to everyone in the company and their grandmother just to get shortlisted for a 9th interview.

[@DanLockwood]

I think the problem with a lot of coding advice on KZbin is that most of it comes from people who don't actually know what they're doing or don't work professionally. Beginners have no idea what is going on. I started 3 years ago at this point and I code professionally now. Looking back at those early tutorials and videos now is eye opening. After 2 years of coding professionally, I know more than a lot of people I used to watch who have been making videos for years. As you say, complex topics are not popular videos. The issue I have with this video is that the things you are talking about don't apply to me at all. Yes you need to know how to do more than just code, but that has always been the case. You're career path seems to be very social media focused and that advice is just out of touch for most people. Like I can't stress enough to any new programmers watching this how out of touch it is.

[@dreadlocsamurai4241]

[@MyGreenpotato]

I totally agree with you. I also work as a software engineer in a major commercial bank and I really wonder where these assumptions come from. I hear people say coding is like 30% wtf? I certainly have other responsibilities but coding is what I do 90% of my time. The technical level is very high and I have to constantly learn new things. Also about the hype of AI, sometimes can save you some time, but not even remotely can replace my overall contribution. And never will imho

[@DanLockwood]

@@dreadlocsamurai4241 Absolutely. The programmers I know who work professionally, don't seriously talk about things like being over employed, traveling the world while freelance coding, and talk about how AI is going to steal everyone's jobs (because it isn't). They are busy with real life not KZbin coding influencer life. They don't have to come up with good video idea topics to hit the KZbin algorithms and make the most money. They literally code, expand their skillset (as has always been the case), and progress in their careers. Being mentored by a senior engineer with 25+ years of experience shows you how little these people on youtube actually know, and how disconnected they are from the real world. People get married, have kids, save for retire, buy houses, and expand their skill set to build their careers. The best place to learn how to code really, and I know this sucks to say, is in a job where you code from others who know far more than you do. I'm also not saying that you can't live overseas and get a steady income by freelancing or live an alternative lifestyle. I want to eventually work fully remote and be able to take a camper to a national park and do my work from there. It's just that this video and a lot of coding videos are not giving people a real picture, and they often don't come from people who have senior level knowledge.

[@netgamersk]

Also a lot of solutions for tech are custom which means they're private and they want to remain it that way. No way some financial software is gonna be developed by some random AI because at that point the solution would be really easy to crack. Also I doubt companies will develop their custom AI to develop because at that point it's easier just to develop it right away. And since AI can't really think for itself in this constantly changing world would mean that AI you built might be outdated for the time it's ready to be used. Everyone shouts AI but hardly those guys are in work environment because if they would they would understand why it's such a BS to say something like that

My journey into the world of coding embarked from humble beginnings. I started with HTML and CSS, gradually progressing into the realm of JavaScript. However, my aspirations took an intriguing turn when I ventured into the realm of game development - an offline world of creativity and complexity I had yet to fully comprehend. The realization soon struck me: there was much more to learn than I had initially assumed. The challenges that lay ahead were not to be underestimated. Yet, with each obstacle encountered, I found myself gaining a wealth of knowledge. It's safe to say that my understanding of coding, programming structures, Gradle wrappers, JDks, SDKs, and the intricacies of it all expanded exponentially. Reflecting on this journey, I must admit that had I known the depth of the undertaking in mastering Kotlin with libGDX, I might have hesitated. However, that's not the path I chose. I persevered, and here I stand today, enriched by the experience. To halt my learning now would be an unfortunate missed opportunity.

I have a bachelors in computer science and have worked in the industry for about 5 years now. I remember during my last year in school the “Bootcamps are the way” were all rage on KZbin. I actually decided to enroll in one during my senior year and noticed how surfaces level the training actually was. Sure you can learn how to code but learning how algorithms work takes learning universal scientific principles in mathematics, physics and theoretical science. I’m happy I spent so many years not just learning to code but learning linear algebr, discrete math, advanced physics and even communication and business skills which so many people back then told me was a waste of time. Now I’m planning to apply to law school because after research I think my computer science degree would make a good combo with a law degree and allow for more professional growth. To everyone working towards that fundamental CS degree… keep going and tune out the noise.

Most of us start motivated in this field but there comes that moment when we have to decide either that this is what we want to be doing or admit that we cannot get any better than we already have (which is required to move further in our career), so we start searching for alternatives. Obvious ones, like management and not so obvious ones like social media. There is nothing wrong with being "just" a software engineer and it will not hinter your career (layoffs in twitter are irrelevant), but you have to evolve. For me, a senior software engineer is someone who has depth in their knowledge and not breadth (e.g. mastering clean code and architecture instead of learning yet another framework superficially). There is also nothing wrong with the alternatives. Having a manager with a technical background is always preferred than one without.

syntax never changes and languages like python, javascrip and lua don't really have that many words that you have to memorize in order to be able to write "code".

Flipped the finger to school and dropped out to work at a customer service call center and make "real money" (minimum wage). Then got married in a very bad relationship and became an alcoholic. Had sense then moved to doing helpdesk support at an IT firm doing "managed services". None of this involved programming, but I was very good at fixing computers and networks and servers. Got promoted to "senior engineer" level and never got paid what I was worth (cost of living is really low here, but the salary was so embarrassing I won't even quote it here). Did that for about 18 years. Got divorced. Drank myself to death. Literally. All family dead or gone. Got "end stage liver disease". Said I had 3 months to live. Quit my job. Swore off tech. Refused getting on the transplant list, refused all procedures and treatments and drugs. Died alone. Was miraculously healed with a new body and nw liver by the hand of God. No kidding. Either a medical miracle or they lied about the diagnosis. Considering the numerous complications I had and the fact I was delirious from a head full of ammonia, pooping white due to no bile production, and unable to walk due to the ascites, and that same fluid in my abdomen collapsing my lungs to having a blood oxygen level of about 85% for several weeks, by the end of all this, they probably weren't lying. So I stopped eating. Turns out the diet they told me to eat, high in fructose due to the fruit juice, low in sodium, high in carbs, was damaging my body even more and causing me to retain fluids. Really stupid doctors. I highly recommend keto and intermittent fasting because it will apparently cure an entirely cirrhosed liver., but I digress. This comment is getting too long. So now 3 years alter, I've burned through all the saving from my home sale. Unemployed for 3 years, but healthier than I was even as a teenager. My CT scans now show a liver with no scarring at all. A medical impossibility. But I digress again. Well, all of that is to say: I can't return to the IT systems/network "engineer" I was before. I've been programming and working on projects I never finish. Because I know that no one will buy them. I can't market this stuff. I don't have any family or friends or support networks. I don't have any professional references anymore. And they aren't going to hire someone with a 3 year gap in work history. And all that programming knowledge and experience I have since I was a kid... Born in 1983, graduated HS in 2001, aged 41 now... That is all useless because I can't prove I know any of it. And even if I could, who would want to hire me at this age with this story? Who would hire this lonely guy with no wife no family no work history no references no network of contacts unemployed for 3 years? No college degree. But at least I can say... I don't have any debt. But my savings are gone in about 9 months. And I'm going to be homeless and no one has a couch for me to go surf on. Whatever anyone can take from that... well, there you go. Probably... stay in school and don't drink. Cherish the relationships and family you have. You never know when they won't be there anymore. It's funny too... Since I've never been so healthy and energetic since I was a young child. All wasted.

I'm doing programming for 40 years now. In all these decades, coding was NEVER cool, and NEVER enough. One always needed to learn & know something else in order to make a living.

Marketing, Influence, Attraction....all the words related to those are the most important skills really. You can pay for everything else. That's my conclusion after 5 years of software engineering.

I don't like mixing things, unfortunately, I like doing 1 thing really good. I need to partner with people as skilled as me in other domains, but no idea how to find them.

Programming will go the way of web design, where you don't need low level skills to be successful because tools exist to do all the heavy lifting: you just need a goal, and the platform will do the rest. Creating custom applications will be achievable by people with no coding experience, much like websites today. Most people say they want to code, but don't have any problems they want to solve or innovations they want to actualize. So of course when actual programming becomes obsolete, so will these programmers. People that are problem solvers and innovators will not have this issue, if anything they will have better tools to create. Focus on how to use code to solve problems, and you very may well weather the storm.

It's kind of funny seeing all the young guys being disappointed that coding isn't "cool" anymore 🤣 I've been doing it for close to 30 years. Coding was never cool. Companies were just embellishing coding because of an extraordinary business need. If you're serious about your career in software engineering, you really shouldn't worry, because we're just going back to a time where being a programmer is being a smart person who's more patient than the next guy about figuring out how code works and making businesses operate more efficiently. That's all there is to it. I'm not worried by the downtrend in software engineering hiring, and I'm certainly not worried about AI as it is a fantastic tool to help you get more productive. Other programmers really shouldn't be worried either, unless they were in it for the cool, which was just a very poor reason to begin with. Coding also was never enough for any position other than the very junior. The moment you show a shred of skill, higher ups will push for you to take on more managerial responsibilities, and the same applies if you're running your own business. If you operate a SaaS and most of your time is spent on coding, I can guarantee you're not making money.

If you're just a "coder" you're probably not going to make it. Sure you can "code", but you can't solve problems for shit for the most part. If you combine that programming knowledge with strong computer science fundamentals, software engineering principles and additionally a strong base of statistics & mathematics you will be very sorted and easily be able to find a fulfilling position. All the actually "fun" stuff in software engineering, you need that mathematics, you need that core problem solving ability. There are a lot of people who label themselves (pretty funnily) "software engineers" after watching a few udemy tutorials and making a few todo apps, but the real professionals are few and far between.

[@CallousCoder]

It was never enough to just code! I realized that very early on when I got to work. I could already write software but what I couldn’t do is listen and design things based on what organizations need. Your business brain, your design brain are far more important than the coding brain. After 40 years of coding the coding part is just the after thought- something I can let juniors and mediors do when I explain in their language what we need. Oh and when you are Python and JS dev and don’t have any lowlevel experience, start learning that. Embedded is really picking up momentum again and demand. More and more hardware with clever software is required to nurture that AI boom.

I don't think it ever was enough. People have always been emphasizing soft skills. Also, as AI gets better and better, more businesses are going to be lean in terms of size. Everyone's gonna be more enticed to do freelancing or develop the skills associated with it (sales, marketing, etc.) 'cause you gotta stand out. ....Aaaaand then... there's also that worst-case scenario where AI gets super good (which is likely the case), mega corps and businesses start using it to absolutely minimize costs, start laying off a huge portion of the workers, and it just gets to a dystopian level where a shit ton of the population is out of work. 🤷‍♂ So either a) sit back or relax and wait for the UBI initiative to arrive (which is 99% unlikely), b) grind it out and expect to either 1) waste all your time because the wealth gap widening will inevitably occur or 2) luck out and make bank.

The point is to build stuff, and with platforms like webflow (which is a no-coder tool, but also works very well with vanilla js) i can build websites so much easier and more complex, its outright ridiculous. I surpassed my old peers that are still stuck in their boring corporation jobs in terms of productivity and innovation a long time ago, and its not because im "smarter" or "better" (god knows those guys are tech geniuses compared to me) but because i dropped my foolish pride of being a "coder" and adapted to my constantly changing environment.

Everybody acts like you should already know even when you are just starting out, if you make a question people just say "Google, but if you need help: ask" I JUST DID Anyway...I really believe that if someone isn't happy with what he or she is doing is because they weren't honest with themselves to begin with.
