Does CS50 Help Get a Job - CS50 Reels

Professor David J. Malan on whether CS50 helps you get a job.

[@ThePriyanz]

i got a job ...a mom of two kids with 8 years of career gap decided to watch cs50 and ended up getting a verified certificate and continued learning with the odin project...now i got a software testing job...took 10 months ...(moms are busy ....please remember that)i consider this as a beginning in my life ....i am glad that i selected this very difficult course as my first step...

[@astkh4381]

It is a great.So are you web developer!

[@parthdeshwal4419]

Did you study it from KZbin?

[@stincc4319]

Is the certificate from cs50 free?

[@TONI__KROOS]

​@@stincc4319i think you gotta pay for that

[@ioidt]

very good role model!

[@joserivas554]

It works don't listen to anyone saying something different. This is one of the best courses that I have ever done.

[@TONI__KROOS]

But its not enough right?

[@joserivas554]

I think it is but all the skills improve based on the habit, if you just study and not practice what you learn is not gonna be enough. But has everything Git, programming languages and server side.

[@Nop3.1]

@@TONI__KROOSwhat do you mean by “enough”?

[@khadijaayman2916]

Should i watch the new one in 2024 or is there is no difference from the 2022 and 2023?

[@joserivas554]

I'm not sure but I have plans to take the current year course, to keep myself updated with the new information

[@industryrule-4080]

David Malan is the GOAT, y'all.

[@ankitakashkalita4483]

No doubt

[@hzuki155]

He's so fun and informational, a great teacher

[@colinmcintyre1769]

I watched his CS50 class to understand Unreal Engine more and instead had an entire world open up to me. Now, I'm more into website design and robotics at the moment. Thank you. I feel like a child at 24.

[@luxemier]

at 24 youre basically a child. remember, when you turn 30, you got another 30 till you hit 60.

[@wandernaut]

Hey you're 5 years ahead of me :) magical feeling to find what you really feel passionate about and it does make you feel like a kid again

As an experienced dev I can honestly say that I have found CS50 highly informative and worth the time. Thank you David Malan and Harvard for producing such a high quality course and offering it gratis.

[@YS-tu2so]

I'm just curious: where do you live? Where I'm from people with master's are struggling to find a job and those who do, earn a minimum wage for the first year-two. But I'm from Europe so maybe it makes a big difference.

I think the part I struggle with the most is exactly what you’re describing - a personal interest or project, AKA use-case. On the rare occasion I do have an idea, there always seems to be a pre-existing app or method for it.

[@keshudioo]

Initially it's not about doing something unique and making money out of your ideas but to put it in your portfolio that you've done it by yourself.

really helpful

[@Arbnor93]

Yep, took the course helped me learn a lot and still stay up to date with new courses. Now I work for a top American asset management firm as an software engineer (more devops side)

[@GoodByeSkyHarborLive]

What do you have to be able to do as devops. Is it more coding?

[@Arbnor93]

@@GoodByeSkyHarborLiveway less coding but more working with dev tools (Terraform, Ansible etc) I’ll still code on our main application (Java and Angular etc) when needed and do python scripting to the side on some automation pieces, but you still need to understand coding principles. Mostly doing SRE stuff too, setting up jfrog Artifactory, creating metrics against applications and alerting (dashboards)

[@GoodByeSkyHarborLive]

@@Arbnor93 are those generally the nost popular devops tools you should be fmailar with? The course itself would provide the background to begin projects on any devops tool? Is there anything else you would recommend besides CS50 especially if we are intersted in the devops side.

[@Arbnor93]

@@GoodByeSkyHarborLivetheres too many dev tools to know all, i’ve only mentioned what I use at work but I specifically tried to learn one tech for one purpose - so Ansible, Terraform, Promotheus with Grafana, Gradle (we use it but not me personally), Gitlab, Jira, Splunk, k8s, AWS But I would say main ones are knowing one from each department such as ticketing for Jira, Jenkins for deployment, Terraform and Ansible for ifra configuration - that’s what I did gradually, but theres a lot more like Chef, Puppet etc Edit: in terms of most popular, learning K8s, docker, AWS (any cloud really but learning one is good), Terraform are most popular atm, I would use udemy and youtube a lot (techwithnana is So great with dev tools) Containerisation for the future

[@magedhamdy1041]

Its really and interesting course im working on it now ..what courses do you recommend for me after cs50 to get into embedded systems ?

If I have to start what playlist of cs 50 I should open first. If I know little bit of java

okay so which course to take next to cs50

The fundamentals apply to any language. You won't forget them if you continue to code.

I see lots of programmers stick map of the World on wall. Can someone tell me the the reason behind it????

That’s interesting. I too want one but much larger than he has. I just like looking at all the diff countries cities and feeling connected. Maybe something about nodes. Who knows?

[@christophert6465]

Summary is you will learn the tools in the lecture, you will perform the mechanics learned in your own way

is cs50 only for first year students?If it is,can we take any other courses after completing cs50?

Can Anyone dumb it down for me, please? I couldn't understand what he was saying !

[@cs50memepage2]

What do you think of A.I that's able to write code and take our jobs?

[@repp181]

what do you think about it?

[@pineapple6385]

It's not taking our jobs. And a.i has been completely misunderstood I think the whole hype was brought by OpenAI and its board members e.g Elon Musk

[@juanignacio4208]

Is impossible, are you refering a.i as chatgpt? Sometimes programmers don't understand the demands of their clients. How will a machine be able to dechiper what they want?

[@leaht-pu1tm]

Well here's another thought how about when someone with more experience takes your job, is that AI? I would say that if your so worried about companies dropping there developers because they can use AI then maybe you and others should educate yourself even greater. The machine does what its programmed to do. AI can help but like anything else when it's abused well there's the obvious. Also I'm not attacking or being negaive its just a reply.

[@misssparkle6421]

With technology evolving at fast pace these days, it puts a lot of jobs at risk. However we usually see that new jobs emerge too to deal with these techs. So if you keep updating yourself as well you shouldn't have problem with that.
