I was at a coding workshop recently where i was teaching some people how to code. They were total beginnings and i have at least 8 years of coding experience so i knew a little more than them.
One of the students was stuck at a problem for a while, i suggested something to fix the problem, and it worked. They then said something interesting to me .... That's what this video is going to be about!

I started with arduino and esp32 and didnt know how to code software or anything about hardware. Watching Paul Mcwhorters youtube series got the ball rolling right away and now after over a year of self education I got hardware down and Im writing a game in C++. good times so dont wait to start learning. its easier now than ever before

lovely as usual especially your voice and accent just charming i love to hear it and btw don't compare your projects to other people because there are millions of people and ofc somebody somehow would have thought of the same idea but in a kinda different way than yours so just work on yours blindly without ever looking at others and then after you finish you will see that it came out indeed different than the others and probably even better because even like the one you mentioned CapCut they still don't have these features of your project you mentioned like removing when your eyes roll and you say certain words and all that with just text orders i think that's really amazing and we would love to see something like that

That's very interesting to know. I always like to share new moments and get to learn more about the way you're working. It's very inspirational to see other people's relations to the things they're doing, and it's actually very nice to get to know more about your work. Thank you very much for sharing this with us.

Wow, the part about "security" and "data privacy" and people using what I build is what I'm feeling right now. When I discovered the tech world last year, I dreamt of trying to build a tech start-up. Those things have been my biggest hindrance, especially since I'm still in college. It is nice to hear that I'm not alone.

Keep going! Don't give up! Have you thought about creating an interactive program to teach people on how to learn how to code, data structures, and algorithms that can adapt and change the lessons according to how the students (users) interacts or responds to the program? Basically a learning platform that can adapt to the students way of thinking! Do something like that!

What would be cool is a video editor that auto cuts silent parts out, while also slightly overlapping the parts for a smoother transition. But if it could auto cut silence it would already be very useful! 16:11 I'd watch a deeper dive. Since your channel isn't heavily coding focused you may want to keep the code part light and talk more about your though process.

Totally agree, a smoother transition would be so amazing

You talked about security threats & data privacy. How did you learn all of this stuff other than from working in companies? I'm in the exact same situation right now where I can build apps, but I have no clue about how to deal with these kind of things.

@ErazerPT Ай бұрын

Short answer is that most software developers aren't all that good at it. It might sound paradoxical, but to be good you need to be "bad". If your first thought about something isn't "how can i abuse it", you will at best think a bit about how to secure things against well known issues. That's blue team material. To get to read team, you need to be willing to "poke and probe" your own system in search of issues. To get to black team you don't really care about the system and are willing to do anything to break it. As far as apps, give OWASP a good read. OWASP MASVS and OWASP MASTG isn't all there is to know, but should at least give you a glimpse on "things to think and worry about". And how much deeper you need to go if security is the goal. Which usually isn't, people just like to pretend it is.

There are some nices courses on coursera that you can get financial aid + search for the things you want to learn

working in companies and dealing with it first hand really really helped! Outside of that, i guess i would just read articles and watch youtube videos about such topics to keep up

"I am right all the time because I have more experience screwing things up than you." When i first started my ego would get hurt when I screwed up. But it eventually occured to me that the more I make mistakes A and B, the more likely it is that I don't make mistakes A and B in the future. Instead, you move onto mistakes C and D, which are oftentimes more complex & nuanced mistakes that require you to learn new things to debug. I think this is why programming & just software engineering in general can be so fun. There's no real repercussions for screwing something up outside of prod environments, so you can keep trying over & over. There's so many things to learn as well.

No project is a waste of time as long as you are serious with it. Although they cannot bring actual results or be brought into production, they always give you experiences and knowledge to become a more successful developer or start-uper in the future.
