Well , I studied Computer Science but unfortunately I quit my career 7 years ago , i started building a family and now i have 2 kids,
Everytime i try to get back I get confused between all the new stuff came out in those 7 years, then I find myself back to 0 since I forgot .
By the way me and my husband are following ur vids about the Ethereum for a while now on youtube . Actually u r one of the few who made it simple to understand.
And since u have started so early I would love to put my daughter on this way
Do u recommend anything for kids to start with them ?
Right now it is easier to do(and learn) everything, but like someone said "complexity is multiplicative" solving the problem with more complex solution increases the complexity of whole system so it is important To do everything without skipping any part :)
yeah you are right @whd, and wow how right is this sentence "complexity is multiplicative" , this is what was happening with me in the CS trails last years , am into real estate business now and its pretty cool but ofcourse you know how amazing is to feel a geek , right ? any recommendation will be very appreciated and your comment is one of them already ,,, Thanks alot
@ivanli thanks for a great video. In your video you mentioned that: java, c# and python are best for backend programming, backend is my preference as I am very good logically and mathematicaly but not so good with visual displays such as a UI. What do you think will be the best language to learn for developing current and future blockchains? Python?
I think it's a matter of whether or not you consider yourself a lifelong learner and if you are motivated to learn something new. If you are determined enough you can do it at any age in my opinion.
I haven't watched the video yet but I wanted to say thank you for your videos. Without your YouTube channel I would not have learned about Etherium, which led me down the path of Steem. I've been in here for just over three weeks and it's an awesome community so again, than you and keep up the great videos. I'll certainly follow you here too.
Thanks for the video and motivating others! I am currently using www.freecodecamp.org and have enjoyed it so far. I definitely recommend it to anyone who is interested.
Okay qed, you summoned the info robot of @qed: 94.508% of steemers have lower reputation than ivanli. 47.330% of steemers signed up later than ivanli (2017.05.10 at 16:30:33). Hope that helps, take care!
I am currently up skilling so that I can teach my students how to code. Currently we have a new curriculum in australia call Digital Technologies and it is really fun and interesting to be able to incorporate coding at a range of levels into our curriculum. So it it interesting to listen to this. Thanks
Thanks for your videos Ivan. I'm in my mid-thirties and I started learning to program in earnest about two months ago. I've made a lot of progress and hope to get programming gigs or remote work soon.
I'm taking the javascript, front-end option and I'm focusing on #VueJS, which is similar in function to React or Angular.
It's important to note that even though I've been a developer for over 12 years, I learn an entirely new paradigm that makes me feel like a n00b almost every year. For example, this year I'm trying to get familiar with the TensorFlow libraries for deep learning, and a couple of years ago I made a drastic change in my DevOps practices by incorporating Docker. I've been using Angular for years and my next project requires React, which I've never done. Onwards and upwards.
So someone who is just coming into programming at 30+ may be just as well as someone who has been doing it since they were a teenager. Yes it helps to fully understand fundamentals, and it helps you learn new things faster, but honestly learning new things is the name of the game -- I spend a lot of time un-learning things also, and a lot of times being stuck in old thinking keeps you from moving forward.
your daily vids are very valuable .. thank you!
Very different getting a job and working on your own projects .. do not put yourself in a position to be judged by others - DIY!
Hey .. older-than-30 people are people too! I enjoy your posts.
scary true
never too late, never wait
much appreciated!
I am learning .. and I'm OLDER THAN 30! Don't worry and keep on programming!
wish I had the skillz
Always thought-provoking.

Your videos are great man. I watched a ton of ETH and various blockchain ones. Keep it up! =)

I was only a programmer when I need it, but we'll need it more and more and it's not so hard to learn as one might think!
do you think its worth all the effort to become a software developer ?
