Congrats Jason, great vid! I’m sure you’ll kill it with the new startup 💯 🔥

I first watched the how to get into waterloo when it had like 30 views. Looking back, we both have made lots of progress. I'm in Loo now and you are doing what your heart's been telling you to, and that's awesome! I truly wish you all the best in your new journey, Jason!

Your story is honestly so inspiring!

Nice job!! Good luck bro! Is hard to get into YC! But you made it! Good luck!

this is awesome.. Thanks for sharing your experience in YC

Bro this is awesome, this feels like my life in a way. Got back in school, Got a lot of opportunities going for me, Looking to get a new job, And meeting great people. This is awesome

Hopefully that means you have more time to make more great YT videos! This video is a must-watch for anyone feeling stuck in their current career. Jason's story is a great reminder that sometimes taking a step back can lead to big leaps forward. Congrats on the well deserved success. Looking forward to seeing what you do at YC and all the cool people you meet along the way.

Love the idea Jason! Would love to make sure that you are connecting it with a CRM or at least making sure that those APIs are built to handle doing that. I can see use cases but I know the companies I work with would want to make sure they were getting the data on their customers.

Congratulations Man Really Happy For You !!! :) Your Vids are Fun as well as Serious at one time . I feel connected to your vids . BTW Congrats for 120k subs :)

I got thrills watching this, I am so happy for you Jason! Congrats on your new adventure 🎉

It all so relatable what you said abt Microsoft and working there, I rly can imagine myself being in the same situation in a few years!

Hey Jason! Congratulations on achieving your green card and getting funding for your start-up! 6 months ago, I was clueless about where to start on my software engineering journey - and then I stumbled upon your video "How I would learn to code (if I could start over)" and I was hooked! Your videos were full of amazing stories and advices, and your bad jokes would make me laugh no matter how many times I watched. I'm in awe of how you've been able to do it all almost completely on your own. You have set a new bar for yourself and we are all here to watch and help you grow even more. You are an inspiration, keep it up! (BTW the growth in the quality of your videos has been phenomenal)

Man you HAVE to make this into a series! GOLDEN content!

Congratulations Jason. Honestly thought you were quitting Microsoft for KZfaq but glad to see things worked out well for you. Hope I can get as good as you one day!

I really love all of your videos and how you share the things you have learned with the world for free!! 😄

Congratulations and goodluck with everything!

The editing and story telling of this video is amazing

Hooow good!! Cant wait to see your journey! LFG

Awesome video, your storytelling ability is amazing!

Putting the risk back on his shoulders is the boldest thing a man could do. Cheers and I hope to chase on your footsteps in the next few years!

Jason you are bravo! You are always an inspiration for us. Eager to know more about your startup and can’t wait to see your startup in unicorn list. Best luck and lots of love ❤️

best video i've came across for long, so ballsy tstl ,, gl jason with the startup

Congratulations.. wishing you all the best for future success

I love your content, They are the Best and most entertaining programing videos on youtube!

This story has made me happy to be a new subscriber to you, I’ve currently switched my major and starting to get into coding on my own time and have an Idea for an app that I’m willing who work hard on .. thank you for the motivation Video !

Good on you for taking the risk and following your dreams. I 110% can not relate and would literally murder for that salary. Looking forward to seeing your journey now.

Its great how Jason's experiences help us learn about such situations and act on them accordingly. great work with the start-up! looking forward to it. Hoping to get enough knowledge and study study study to join you too! 😂

This is so wholesome. Watching the part where you missed the email, rescheduled, entered the wrong meeting link, rescheduled again was an emotional rollercoaster, bet it must have been the same for you guys too 😂 Glad it all turned out well. Best of luck to you guys!

I just wanted to comment congratulations on taking the plunge and choosing to quit your job. I can’t imagine how scary that leap really was but you are investing in yourself and your roommate and the dreams y’all have and that is simply incredible. I can only say I wish you all the luck I can. I joined this channel (and the discord) to try and learn some stuff and from what I’ve seen: I’m excited to see what’s next.

Loved this video!

Super happy for you, Jason!

Why did the guy quit his job at Microsoft and leave behind $250,000? Because, like any sane person, he was stuck in a rut and wanted to take risks. He finally got his green card and decided to leave Microsoft to pursue his dream of starting a startup. But he realized that his safety net of a steady salary was holding him back and making him complacent. So he took the leap and quit his job, even though he would be making "zero" at first. I am trying to hop on the same boat honestly.

Congrats! Good luck! p.s. Thanks man, for your videos. You really help with motivation! One of the best channels.

Your storytelling skills were absolutely amazing! The way you captivated the audience and transported us into different worlds through your words was truly impressive.Moreover, your unwavering courage in pursuing your dream is incredibly inspiring. Wishing you all the best in your future endeavors! May your passion continue to drive you towards greater achievements. Keep up the fantastic work! 👍

Inspiring story! Excited to follow along!

The line you added " NOTHING I'VE EVER BUILT AS A SIDE PROJECT HAS EVER BEEN USED BY ANYBODY" is really for everyone, and it shows the path.

With all the chaos that’s happened the past few years, 2023 looks like it’s going in a great direction for you!! Be humble and stay hungry for every opportunity!! I believe you will succeed!!

Wow that was like a movie. Took me through a roller coaster, just waiting to hear what the result was. Congrats Jason that’s awesome, take it to the moon

As a computer engineering student at the University of Waterloo, I aspire to be like you one day Jason. Congrats on getting into YC man 👌

Well all the best and hats off to your daring moves

Congrats, best channel I subbed to.

You're an inspiration to many young folks. Keep it up!

It’s crazy how life change with in a blink (talvez isso esteja escrito errado, o ingles ta enferrujado). Nunca imaginei que eu largaria my health career for a IT career. Your video it’s a light

currently studying software engineering and this guy has just the kind of story that Inspires me.

Best of luck! Keep us updated ;)

Congrats!! :D

Yoooo good luck! You're so brave bro. I hope you the best, do you think you can do this because of your little "fame" or just coz of good work?

@0:30 if you zoom in, bro has had us all the time. His real name is Anthony Shu Zen 🤣🤣

Your being happy at the end is most important thing. I want to be a programmer too and taking courses and actually finishing them lol. it may sound like a lie but yes I finish them!

Will always be your constant follower :)

I don't know anything about coding and to be fair knowing what the journey will be like from you. Its wiser than wasting time in skills I will get stuck in a wormhole in

no doubt you keep the light glowing in the dark remains , I can hear a positive harmony from your voice

This is amazing. Congratulations! May I ask if you had no product at all until the interview? or did you start building the prototype after submitting the application and were able to show a working demo during the interview?

how do you get idea for startup ?? And how would I know that this is the one ?? I really want to try all this YC and all but don't know how to can somebody help?? Can anyone give me useful advice

Good luck jason hope u the best

so this is like alternate universe if Tom Holland become software engineer

I’m reading thinking about computer science or information technology. I am more of a problem solver using logic but I’m still trying to figure out which one to do. I love working with computers but I suck at anything above Algebra 2. Does anyone have advice?

🎊Congratulations bro 🎉

Seeing the title, I was thinking “Damn..the tech layoffs got Jason too!”

You’re amazing, so proud!

Did you leave before the layoffs? Seems like good timing and I think your next venture is going to be really successful good luck!

Your storry teling is amazing.
