I've been programming since 1968 (I'm 74). I started with FORTRAN, moved to C, dabbled with BASIC, used Perl and JavaScript for my web scripting starting 1995. Now I'm looking to be able to pass on management of my web sites to others. Converting them to Python was a no-brainer, because of the wide use of the language now.

[@degerdi]

I started with BASIC, moved to VB, then Java, then I did Sysadmin, then network security, then I was a virtualization architect, then an IT Director, then devops and now I’m back to programming but I lead the team. I learned Python for devops and never used it again.

Python is amazing, great for web development iv been using django for 15 years and all the sites and apps I build are solid, load fast. I dont prescribe to full stack javascript, I use javascript for frontend and frontend tooling only.

[@PixelThorn]

I agree with your position, but I find it difficult to motivate why python backend is better than Javascript backend - what's your thoughts?

[@iamyathz]

Does Django has great career like i am learning python now and got the option like web development or into the data science thing i dont understand is django like can i move it to there is it slow start or how can you reply please

[@Michael-kq3qm]

@@PixelThorn Python (Django) backend: Solid, secure, great separation of concerns. Huge community support. Used by top web apps like Instagram, KZbin, Spotify, and Dropbox. Robust framework that scales well and promotes clean code. Perfect for serious web projects needing reliability and maintainability.

[@Michael-kq3qm]

@@iamyathz Mastering Python (Django) is a smart career move. High demand, great salary potential, and versatile skills that transfer across industries. From startups to tech giants, Django developers are sought after. Plus, its clean syntax and powerful features make you a more efficient coder overall.

[@juniorthabede4813]

Same here. After I've finished learning python in 2 years or so I think I'll go for java

[@1one1one60]

Back when I was an undergrad I signed up for some contract Fortran work. Two weeks before my work was supposed to begin i get a call, "We need you to come in and help out with some COBOL programming!" "But, I don't know COBOL..." "Doesn't matter!"

[@SergiuNicolaescu-m5v]

Python is such a nice feeling language to interact with, channels like this are so nice for learning all the little features :)

[@kyleabent]

I don't believe a valid reason not to learn python is "just because everyone else is doing it." Not anyone can write the same way YOU can.

[@Shmolitz]

I work in tech industry but not as developer, I am a Business Analyst. I use Python for small automation that I can build much faster than writing down all the specs and ask a real developer to do the job.

[@igorthelight]

Yep! Python was created for that task! Not joking!

[@Jeziorowski242]

Ja mam to samo. Od tego się zaczęło Chciałem nie robic to samo tych samych rzeczy w pracy Chciałem żeby były automatyczne

[@qqmayakashi]

i started learning python last 2019. I kinda regret focusing on python since most of my portfolio is around python. luckily I used C and a bit of java for my robotics and some commissions. but not enough to cover for a portfolio .

[@faturismee]

hi, im actually a beginner into this programming world. can you give me some advices on what i should'nt do, and what i should've ?

[@randyriegel8553]

I've been mainly using C# / SQL since 2005. Company I'm at now for a few years has some Python scripts mainly for automation or just quick database stuff. I HATE it! I still mainly do C#/SQL there but occasionally I have to make changes to a Python application or script. Can't wrap my head around it and I've used probably 20 differently languages in my career both front end and backend. I'd almost rather write ASM (which I have) than Python.

[@linchudson4990]

Coding is hard! Thank God for Qt, Pyside & PyQt for GUI coding by drag & drop techniques. Why would anyone want to hand code a GUI? To me that's the like Norm the carpenter going out to the woods to cut down the trees and mill his own lumber for his next project. Use tools! This is the ingenuity of man, to make tools. Which makes me wonder why coders don't use UML tools to automate the coding process. You still have to understand the source code it generates so you can test and optimize it. But you don't have to type every line!!

[@TimMountjoy-zy2fd]

Well thats the LLM AI bots coming in. I subscribe to Bito and Git Co_Pilot. I would say copilot is far better at coding and predictive coding and BITO is better at higher level questions. I use one to check the other. PS 100% agree with how poor GUI development tools are.

[@GoonCity777]

Hiring managers would hire those who know low level details. Someone who drives a car without opening it is not a mechanic.

[@alst4817]

I learned Python as a first language and it’s great for beginners. But apart from some quick scripting and light data analysis I won’t be using it again. However, as an easy way into programming it’s great.

[@dommafia]

So what became your main program?

[@esrx7a]

That was awesome Tim, a lot of insights there. Thanks a ton.

[@PandaThePie]

I appreciate the video. Could you also make a video about when burnt out? I've been learning programming on my own but I'm having a difficult time starting a project of my own to put it on my resume. And that makes me feel less and less motivated. I know what project I want to create but I'm not good at starting it without a helping hand or a tutorial.

[@newstation795]

You don’t just build a project on your own from scratch, definitely not as a beginner. Find a tutorial and build on it. Try to do what you can on your own but don’t feel guilty for using help.

[@PandaThePie]

@@newstation795 I understand what you're saying but whenever I'm not doing it from scratch on my own, I get the imposter syndrome

[@premsinghrathore9691]

That's just normal until you don't feel like it​@@PandaThePie

[@BirdmanPRRT]

@@PandaThePie I personally started by following tutorials and then refactoring them along the way. If the tutorial is written functionally, rewrite it as object oriented using classes. Build your own ideas on top of the tutorial. Eventually you will look back and realize you build a LOT outside of the tutorial itself, and will have learned a ton along the way.

[@PandaThePie]

@@BirdmanPRRT Thanks for the advice

[@kwith]

My reason is for my job. I was given a task that involves CI record automation and some of the code involves Python and Ansible. So I guess I'm learning Python now lol. I'm already a little familiar with Ansible but I'll be continuing on that as well. Been at it for a couple weeks now and I've already got several new ideas for updating and rewriting some existing scripts and applications in Python for automation and efficiency.

[@GokeAruna]

Good efforts. however, all those skills mentioned are included in python - concurrency, multithreading, pointers etc. Can you educate me better on this? I have been using it for almost 2 decades and I used most of this features you mentioned lately.

[@sadephillips9645]

What are some specialized roles in tech with less competition? I am looking for programming-centered careers that are not too saturated.

[@cristianguerra1617]

Knowing Assembly language, COBOL, or FORTRAN. Those are niches that don't have many new people

[@andymounthood]

The main thing is not to specialize in JavaScript (esp. with React) because that's the most saturated field--and don't specialize in Python unless you combine it with another field of expertise. Some low-code or no-code platforms seem to have a demand for developers (especially freelancers or people working for an agency). Salesforce developers allegedly are also in demand, if you prefer a corporate job.

[@ptt-1996]

Less competition means it's not valuable, less pay maybe. Get into AI. My view is focus on the latest tech, don't look for the easy role, it won't be worth it

[@anatoli4ok148]

yeah i been improving my Python skill for data analytics but damn most free courses i find on algorithm and data structures are in java, its not like i have a problem with java its just confusing

[@awsomeslayer1]

Its true that Python is slow, not visually appealing and not suitable for developing games. But, if I only wanted to learn two programming languages and python is already one that I am good at, which other programming language do you think would complement it best? Not just covering the areas where python is weak but also interface with python code if required. I have heard C# is something in that zone but are there any other alternatives?

[@ptt-1996]

Ruby?

[@FlanPoirot]

C, C++ or Rust. you'd be able to create python FFIs through these languages and also if you want something that's actually fast you can jump into these instead of just hammering everything through with python even when it doesn't suit the purpose

[@omidmoaddab]

It seems Java can be a good choice as well. A lot banks' backend systems use it.

[@lukasraw]

Start with haskell

[@rouxenophobe]

Not a programmer, I watched because I was wondering whether AI has made all entry level coding extinct? I got the impression that it has. That is, a few years ago the (UK) government was encouraging everybody to learn to code, but now AI can do in seconds what a person can do in weeks (at least that's my perception), so is there any point at all in learning python as a complete beginner just to put on your CV?

bro is it fine to ask chatgpt for the logic of any program to make with python

[@mintz347]

I know employees lookin for all kind python jobs but which jobs they looking most to python devs to work backend?

[@jasonsmith2759]

Imagine being a home repair professional and bringing a toolbox containing nothing but hammers. That would be ridiculous right? Programming languages are the same. A different language for different use cases. Python is good to know for general purposes but it is good to have familiarity with 2 or 3 languages
