@@loistalagrand I don't work in software, but I find your language videos very interesting, especially for Japanese. Do you get to use your Japanese much these days?
Im about to enter my second semester of a programming program at a college. With the advancements of aI, I feel like this is a bad time to be going through the programming route. Do you think this is a valid way to feel? is the programming route a lot less secure, than it was like 10 years ago?
Lots of people have been making videos about how AI is going to replace some programming jobs. It makes for good headlines. However, I used (arguably) the most powerful AI coding assistant (GitHub CoPilot, currently using AWS Whisperer) and I can tell you that AI is NOWHERE close to replacing programmers. Nothing to worry about.
I am curious if you have any guidance on getting interviews as a candidate with only a GED, and what projects are most impressive to an interviewer I grew up a bit neglected/abused, I went without any education AT ALL growing up; but I self taught myself programming as a teenager. Now I'm 23 and close to finally getting my GED, and I want to know if you have any advice on just: how do I stand out/land an interview when there's hundreds of people with CS degrees applying? While I want to focus more on the backend developer side of things, I have learned Python/C# and I consider myself pretty proficient. I can pick up basically any programming language as well at a basic level. I do need to work on a few things such as some algorithms/data structures I missed as I was self taught, but I recognize what I'm missing and hope to improve. Thanks for your response, I have been very depressed due to my situation past few years and I'm trying to finally get motivation and make better of it.
First, are you sure you want to go into backend? It would be easier (and faster) to get a frontend job. In terms of projects, don't try to think of ideas yourself. Just get into a comprehensive program for whatever type of developer job you're targeting. Any good program will have great projects you can show during an interview. I wouldn't worry too much about CS graduates. CS graduates are overconfident (I have a master's degree in CS). Self-taught people have much more targeted knowledge if they've been through a good program. Try to apply to some small companies that don't seem too attractive. There's not much competition there. I currently work for a small company, and we are struggling to hire even 1 developer a year. You just need to get your foot in the door.
@@loistalagrand I find back-end work more enjoyable, but I've considered it and you're probably right. I should just get my foot in with a front-end job and then I can transition to full stack down the line. Thanks for your replies and advice.
I'm sorry for your situation as a kid and hope you're ok. Keep going cuz it will be rewarding for you... Besides that, after you get your first job and get some experience in front end you can be a full stack... There's demand for that
Thank you for the video! I have a question actually. I’m a Korean living in Canada and I’m very interested in software engineering. Lately, the coding capabilities of AI have been advancing very quickly, and soon AI might handle most of the coding tasks. Despite this, do you think it’s still worthwhile to start studying software engineering now?
AI will help software engineers do their jobs faster. I'm already experiencing it with stuff like GitHub Copilot. However, I don't think we're even close to AI being able to handle what developers do. Other types of jobs, with less complexity, will get replaced much faster. I would say software engineering is still a pretty safe bet.

Hi thank you so much.
Great video brother
Good video!
Hello, thank you for the video ! Do you have to speak good English for this kind of job
You deserve a lot more subscribers
Thanks!

@@Starstreak170 I speak with Japanese people about 5 times a week, just for practice. Why do you ask?
@@loistalagrand That's cool. I was just curious about how people maintain their Japanese knowledge when when not living in the country.
he will definitely have more subscribers. its important to keep going. subscribers count doesn't matter
Hello great Video! In the Link you provided I did not see the two must as if framework React or Angular and also the once a must like java and React!
You're right, that was the wrong link! I've updated it to www.educative.io/path/zero-to-hero-in-front-end-development-with-react?aff=Vpjm&

@@loistalagrand Thank you for the reply :)
Hi Lois...Thank for this video, would you reply me a link a source of HTML, CSS, React, Js Modul to learn? thanks in advance :)
