Python popularity is a bit misleading to self taught devs. A lot of the Python jobs are in AI or Data Science and those jobs require a related degree in most cases. The last two companies I worked for required a masters for data science jobs. Those are Python jobs a self taught dev can't get. It's great to learn Python though. Remember this dude is selling a course.

Java popular in 1991? 🤔No Sir. Java 1.0 came to existence in 1996. The java thing started in universities around 1997 and it had hard competitors like Smalltalk, Lisp, Haskell, C & C++ and Assembly. With Java 2.0 in 1998 it slowly reached a critical mass as a language to teach students the art of OO programming.

[@wendellhatcher7011]

He us completely incorrect... Python was made to replace shell script and mainly Perl. I remember when it was being used back in the day we were moving away from perl because it was hard to learn and maintain. Python was easier to read and literally built off of perl syntax modules etc... to replace perl.

Here are the summarized points of the video in a few bullet points: Python is a popular programming language known for its readability and ease of use. It is still a dominant language in many industries including data science, AI, and backend development. However, the tech world is always changing. Here are two big trends that will affect Python: AI Revolution: While AI is a positive trend for Python programmers in general, a lot of the AI works involve using existing AI tools rather than coding new ones from scratch. This means the demand for Python programmers in AI might not be as high as expected. Big Data: This is a field that heavily relies on Python for data analysis. The demand for Python programmers in this area is expected to grow even bigger. Overall, Python is here to stay and likely to become even more relevant in the future. But just learning Python itself is not enough to be successful as a developer. Here are the real truths about learning programming languages: The ability to solve problems with code and having the right character traits are becoming more important than just memorizing syntax. AI is making coding easier and less about remembering details. To be a successful developer today, you need to be able to sell yourself to companies and convince them that you are the developer they are looking for. Ai is great for now

[@TormodSteinsholt]

But in terms of machine learning, statistics etc, python is still the doninant eco system of tools, people and libraries? I know that many of the AI "McDonald" tools are prompting tools. That you learn how to pre-load it with a conversation style context so that it will be better suited for a particular domain, but But that is such a separate skill for something so completely different that I don't think that is relevant for your initial motivation to learn Python.

Great video, Python is my favorite language but so many people are under the impression you can use one language and be good forever.

[@kimconroy9535]

Coming from the business side of things, it gives you an amazing tool to manipulate data to find answers and solutions for real world challenges. Even if I didn't want to learn Python, I know I could explain a business problem to a Python programmer and they could probably get answers for me pretty quickly. It's much faster and many more options than something like Excel. I know this because my nephew had to quit college so he took a C## course at a community college. I told him if he liked it to stick with programming and he could make some good money. He took a low-level job at a financial company and started automating some of their stuff with Python. After about a year to two years at that job, he applied to a very large company for a nice salary and has been working there for years remotely. I surely don't have the brains to major in CS and maybe not even to write code in Python but with the little bit of gray matter between my ears I could provide data to someone and tell them what I want and they don't have to spend a year writing a program for it. Python is an excellent tool.

[@daveoatway6126]

Python is good today because of the speed of processors and memory. It is an interpreted language which used to be slow. Now it is not. The programs execute fast, and the programming UIs are very friendly. That is true for more traditional languages too, but python is very efficient and easy to learn.

[@yuridelossantos569]

comparing python and C in that manner is a distortion. You can write a library in C so that you can read a file in a one line of code. That's not how C is compared with python. That comparison misleads those who wish to enter into the world of programming.

[@MrVanee]

Bro, no one has ever said that if you know Python you will have a good life, it's like saying that because you know mathematics you will be rich. Python is the best option to start developing that computational thinking that is needed as a programmer, the syntax is easy and clear, and it is very easy to learn the basics. It's not like Java or C++ where the code is very messy or based on OOP. If you want to develop easy projects, it is 100% recommended that you use Java.

[@hibob841]

Good stuff. I found your points to be well-reasoned and broadly agree. However, I have to disagree slightly with the idea that, to paraphrase, LLM-based tools make it less important for a developer to actually commit to memory the minutiae of syntax, libraries, frameworks, algorithms. That's mostly true, with one important exception: technical interviews that you need to pass, in order to actually get a job. You're not generally going to have LLM-based tools available to you (often no tools at all). You're going to be interviewed by old guys like me, who are going to ask you to whiteboard a "fizz-buzz" problem, or implement a doubly linked list, or traverse a binary tree. If you're lucky you _might_ get questions specific to the platforms/languages you claim knowledge in (but just as often not). Then we'll ask you about the time-vs-space complexity of your solution and how you might optimize it. We'll ask you this stuff because that's how we were interviewed, and we haven't yet figured out a better way to assess someone.

well I think the number one thing to consider, is that python is open source. and when you compile it to a .exe file, it will be compiled to an open source project. (as stated it the license) but open source is also cool, i think of it as a security layer. people can read your code. so if your up to no good, people can see that. you learned c...cause everything we use is based of c... except assembly? i think....(hardware programming)

[@amex02]

Once you learn the fundamentals of programming, you need to find an area to specialise in. For example web or app dev, front-end or back-end? Look for jobs in your local area. What languages and frameworks are they using? Once you figure out the direction learn what is required for those jobs. Companies don't want to waste time training you but if you can slot in you will be attractive. At least in my area, Python is a dead end. For web, PHP, Java, .NET and JS are big. Don't get caught up with silly courses too. Learn to read documentation, and whenever you have some spare time read something about whatever framework or language you are working on. It all adds up. Also consider starting fairly low and build your career up from there. For example as a Wordpress dev. Gaining experience is crucial.

[@nightlifeking]

If you want to make at least 50k just get into IT. Programming is hard and very competitive. I feel like it's way easier to get an entry level IT job than trying to find an entry level programming job (which are pretty non-existent). Get your A+, Network+, and Security+ certs and I promise you'll get a job in the 50-70k range with persistence. You may have to take a low paying job just to get your foot in the door but once you have 1 year of IT experience IN AN OFFICE (Not retail), you'll be able to apply for other jobs and make way more money. I'm a self taught IT pro, started as a non-paid intern, I'm now making 6 figures. Took about 10 years and a lot of determination. I love programming and it makes me an even more valuable IT pro, but I'm over trying to get a programming only gig. Good luck!

I have to disagree. Everyone is scared because of AI, so in like 5 years, the demand for professional programmers will rise massively. Everyone considers learning to code pointless because of videos like this. And I won't pretend that AI is useless, everyone knows it isn't. But it's just not as useful as you claim. People still need proper knowledge to knoe what's actually happening inside the code and how to, for example, debug and convert it into an executable. I came to understand this when my friend sent me a 160 line program and I had completely no idea what it was actually about. I understood when I dived into it. People just assume AI or someone else is going to do everything for them, so the success of the average programmer is going to fall massively in the following years. And with it also the demand for programmers is going to rise, creating opportunities and potential jobs.

1985. C64 code: OPEN 1,8,15,"notes,s,w" PRINT#1,"do the homework before a soccer game" CLOSE 1 seems pretty simple, much before Python. Similar with Fortran which is compiled language, and with Pascal. They were both widely used, probably more than JAVA and C, if popularity is the benchmark.

Coding is a pointless skill in

[@TheFocusedCoder]

I think this opinion is misinformed. Coding is not going to differentiate you for jobs anymore but coding is going to move to a basic skill, like reading, writing and doing math. Your take is similar to when the printing press was invented if people claimed you do not need to learn to write anymore. Writing changed from using a feather and ink to a keyboard but knowing how to write well has been relevant for centuries. Same thing with coding. It will just look different but the core skill will remain for a long time.

[@MrVohveli]

@@TheFocusedCoder In the end, nobody cares about the code, the quality of it: if it runs decently, nobody cares. From which we get to the point: We will not even see the code, we will simply receive the app. If we need a feature, we will ask the copilot to add it and it will appear: This technology already exists in Palantir AIP, if I'm not mistaken. So sadly, it isn't misguided, it's just the way it's going to be. As an AI engineer, I always tell my colleagues half jokingly: My job is first to automate your jobs and then mine, and I'm almost done with theirs...

[@TheFocusedCoder]

​@@MrVohveli defining what you should do or not do based on if people care is a personal thing. Coding is used for a lot more than just getting a job. That is a very narrow and specific goal. If that was the case then coding will not be relevant 2-5 years similar to how you cannot today claim "knowing excel" is what is going to get you hired. Like you mentioned you can automate jobs. The new skill will be how many AI agents can you create/manage to work on your behalf. People will be able to spin up organizations of agents. The first people to do that will be coders. The second are those who wait for it to be coded.

I know you're being hyperbolic but it's been 1 year since gpt4 and we haven't seen much progress in coding performance. Claude 3 is maybe an iterative improvement. I'm not sure where you're getting 1000% improvement from, it's more like 15-20%.

[@MrVohveli]

@@PinguinoRodriguez-hd8bw Historical progress of AI. You aren't seeing it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. GPT-5 is alledgedly coming this year and Altman says it _exceeds_ expectations. He also said many startups have the same idea as you, that it won't progress much and that's a mistake.

Can you make one video on how to make mobile app using python please..??

[@ad7711x]

You might as well start learning another language. for iOS, you need to learn SWIFT. The syntax is fairly similar to Python and JavaScript. For Android, Kotlin or Java. Or you can learn React Native with JavaScript. You also have to learn some type of database. For the app I want to build, you have to know all of that. I simply don't have the type to code every single solitary line, so I'm going to get help. Outsource some of it. I don't want to deal with having to learn UI so I'm probably going to buy a template and pay someone to customize it the way I want.

​@@Techfunn45Are you under the impression that only content creators are programmers? There are better tools than python for mobile development but best of luck figuring it out

How should i make mobile app using python...??

[@hoangthaibaonguyen2241]

go on youtube Tech with Tim

[@timmenhoff]

mby write this question in google? but since u decided to write it here, u will never make an app sorry

[@riklaunim]

You don't make mobile apps with Python. There is no production software stack in Python for it.

[@villadrifft9381]

How do you make an app?

[@paca3107]

just use tech made for it

[@scottwalker9766]

Python is what basic should have been.

[@scottwalker9766]

It is by far the best scripting language out there.

[@scottwalker9766]

I feel that the closest thing to it is ruby.

[@scottwalker9766]

A.i. changes things. Now, every language matters.

[@scottwalker9766]

Given its perspective.

[@scottwalker9766]

Emacs is way better if you know elisp.

[@michaelfisher4737]

im 2 min in and i just cant... this is a joke, dont just learn a programming language, learn how to program. nothing wrong with having 20 lines of code to read a file, its doing shit, and you can just abstract it into a function then boom! you use it like you do in python. the reason python is easy is because its designed to have a lot of things like this already done for you. but they are not doing the same thing in the 2 code example. python is not error handling, its not assigning it to a variable. in that python example, what happens if it the file is null?? look here, lets take away all the error handling shit and make the c more closer to python: include int main() { FILE *file = fopen("example.txt", "r"); char line[256]; while (fgets(line, sizeof(line), file)) { printf("%s", line); } fclose(file); return 0; } ok ive halved the lines of code. you have some memory addressing and synax adding to the lines of code and that it but its still doing other stuff then just "print file to screen" i mean, if thats all you want to do then why even bother with python? just in your terminal "cat filename.txt" this is my issue with people people the lean python, they are not actually learning to program and this is why so many people struggle to get anywhere and just think "oh well AI will make programming irrelevant" like yeah, if all you know is python and how to use functions and libraries that are already made for you, yes your job will become redundant.
