This looks really amazing...I just started coding, learning javascript atm and noticed you are using simple notepad for coding, so could I ask you for advice - should I use notepad or stick to some popular code editor like VSC? Thanks.

[@Kalasklister1337]

@@dafythereal This is something highly personal and i suggest that you try out VS Code, Jetbrains, and Neovim and compare them. Usually it depends on your needs and what you want from your editor what you end up choosing. Traditional IDEs try to minimize the amount of effort to get stuff working and are not afraid of consuming multiple gigabytes of RAM and lots of cpu to achieve it. Neovim and Emacs are what could be called PDEs (Personal Development Environments) that are a lot harder to master but give you much more control and many times less resource usage. If you are the kind of person who likes to tinker with editors and likes maximum control and speed you should probably go for a PDE. If you don't like that stuff you are better off just using Vscode or Jetbrains with a vim plugin so you can get mostly keyboard driven workflow with a lot less hassle. In case you want to try neovim you kan look up the kickstart.nvim guides, there are a lot of them.

Interesting video. 25 years ago I tried to start writing a driver for some USB-DVB-S device (edit: it was an internal PCI DVB-S-card) for BeOS (these were the times when I was still watching TV), thinking "I don't know at all what I'm doing, but maybe I'll get somewhere if I just start doing it". I maybe got some little thing working, but it never went anywhere. Driver development is something else...

This is so valuable. Thank you for uploading these

This is amazing. Now I wonder how software engineers write code for spaceships, fighter jets etc.

Hey, I just know about sum(A1+A2) in excel, and after seeing this clip which I know nothing about, you are indeed a supreme commander

It's 1 am and somehow I ended up here. Might as well try to steal what you do for learning purposes. Much respect!

[@yassenredwan8297]

saving this video to remind me that I am nothing, no one. I will need more learning, more than I expected I would need. 4 years of college with 1 year of hard self-study and 4 summer camps didn't do anything, not even close to this guy lvl, getting A's in my OS modules didn't help at all what a waste. Iam so fked and you sir are a legend. Thank you for this video, to snap me back to reality.

You can do it too!

This is what I call Deep Work.

Makes me feel better about myself that even experienced C programmers sometimes forget how to correctly use char array pointers

Im just starting to code, im 24 and feel too old for this field but its something ive really liked, watching you is like watching someone perform blackmagic, hopefully one day ill get to be as good as you are

[@Exnem]

Old? I am 27 turning 28 and learning python. Don't worry about it! Just make the small fun scripts, and be proud. Every single one of them is you improving, and we all have to start somewhere. 😄

[@pal-ly302]

No syntax highlighting, no code suggestions, no fancy IDE and a thick German accent. What a legend.

Dudes thoughts are racing at 1000mph and we’re trying to catch glimpses of them while he talks and codes.

I have 0 knowledge about this and yet I can't stop watching it.

[@nsr-ints]

Rocks to freaking replicator indeed. You're amazing, sir.
