NEW RECORD, 2 vlogs in 2 days. I'll be answering all questions you might have for me in the comment section. Thanks guys love u Edit: I spent $2,500 on BOTH ratemydorm.com and ratemydorms.com - I accidentally cropped out that part of the deal in the vid lol
You're like the cool kid in highschool that doesn't look down on others and everyone just wants to have you as their friend. Cool, but smart... and fit.
Crazy. I also went to BU, and during my sophomore year (also in 2015) me and my friends came up with the same exact idea, but wanted to call it “Dorm Knock” or something like that (Ratemydorm is actually more clever haha) , but ended up not doing anything with it. On one hand kinda stings that someone else ended up doing it and it turned out to actually be a great idea, on the other hand very happy with your success with it. Damn what a coincidence, says a lot about the dorm system at BU🤣
Great video Jed! You just inspired me to get my startup idea going after 5 years of going around in circles and not putting that much time, attention and energy into it.
Hey, the videos I love to see from you is just normal vlogs, I’m going into the coding niche in a few months and I like watching your vlogs for the sole purpose of seeing what my life would look like when I become a software engineer. Your videos show me that you can continue to have a full and fun life even when working a lot. Keep it up! 👍
I landed my first software engineer role with American express after a bootcamp because of my projects. I built my own version of shopify so I could easily link it to my business website and update the products and not have to pay those monthly fees.
I second the comment about personal projects for those without work experience. I just graduated with no internship experience but since I invested a lot of time in my personal projects, it gave me a lot to talk about with interviewers when I was job hunting. I was able to land a job at a faang. So to those worrying about their lack of work experience, there is hope!
I like making videos and taking photos on my iPhone and film camera, so enjoy doing it. I understand how those activities make you feel happy. I’m also majoring at computer science, and you gave me a great point about building own project, thank you. I like your channel and IG page.
Currently dreading my senior year of college, and I can't help but tell you, you're inspiring me to keep pushing. Rejection after rejection from job applications really kills someone's drive, but to see that your project worked out in your favor really does inspire me. I hit that sub button. ✌
Dude I love your videos. You're so gentle and mild. I feel like you are so kind. Thank you for your videos. I'm 24 and I get motivation watching your videos. I just love your grind dude I mean it. You working hard is very motivating to me. My question for you is Where do you see yourself in 5 years? & Do you find any other cultures interesting? Would you step outside of your culture to be friends with someone in another culture. Sorry my comment is so long, but I really appreciate your videos, your kindness, and gentleness dude. Please stay humble and stay you 🙌🏾 have a great day
This is soooo goood...this got me pumped to continue my dropped side project...sometimes just laze around or so mentally tired or drained after my dev job that this side project of mine, I kind of was procrastinating, thanks for this 👍
Personal projects really have a big impact on a resume, I'm still a Gr11 Student but I'm itching to start one after the school ends this coming week. I'm loving your content!
Bro, that's crazy. I actually had an idea around the same time to make a management app for a local organization that was very disoriented and unorganized. But in order to do so, I needed to learn JavaScript. I realized that after finishing the prototype for the app, lol. and then never got back to it till now. I am starting to learn JavaScript and hoping to launch that app by summer 2022.(I plan on making some profit through ads)
I just waste my time when I'm bored lol. Wish I have a side hustle or even a skill to learn. But thats AWESOME Jed. Keep on inspiring many lives through your daily/weekly life as CS major! 🔥
Dude you’re inspire me to make RUclips videos. I’m a real estate agent & full time student @ Pepperdine in Malibu. I’ve always loved the arm of film and documentary.. hopefully one day I build up enough courage to put myself out there.
since i'm the one who code our thesis/capstone project in college, i used it as my portfolio after i graduated and job hunting, luckily, i got accepted because of it, so yeah, since IT people don't have board exams, the only arsenal you have when applying for a job but you don't have any work experience yet as a developer, your personal project/s or thesis/capstone project is very important in getting that job offer.
Great video bro! I like how your videos are both entertaining and motivational/informational you are already one of my favorite youtubers. Keep up the good work.
Awesome project you have here Jed!!! Ya know I've always been best at crafting intuitive ideas in my head than making them a reality in a computer😂, but guess what, I'm taking my programming courses serious this time around 💙 from Nigeria
your vogs are always great. im always looking forward to more. could you make a studying related video? talking bout the methods u used in college maybe... coz i need some motivation.
I am a first year student of computer science, can u like make a video how to be productive in this path, as im super lack of motivation and i am very inspire u, can u share tips on how to be productive and good at coding , thank u so much if u notice this comment😅
I love your vids. The vlogs. The tips. It's the perfect mix I've always been dreaming for. (This is me telling u to not stop or delete these type of videos hahah)
Awesome way of storytelling Jed. I just got to know you for the first time and it turns out, I have been looking for YTbers like you. Keep up the good work :)
Hey Jed, I just got accepted to major in CS this year. This content is really inspiring and motivating. Also I have an old family member who is making a field switch due to covid.... so I'll def share this with him. Keep the CS content coming every now and then cause the vlogs are a must lol..... and do you have any tips?
Honestly....that's a ridiculously good price for a domain like that, I think. College students aren't a rich customer segment, I think, but there's a lot of them and dorm info is relevant pretty much every year. Seems like an ad based model long-term would make sense for monetization?
yup. that's how ratemyprofessors makes money so i imagine id follow a similar route. i could also sell ad/banner space to apartment complexes that are nearby schools, allowing them to target students looking for housing
you are fabulous I am from india currently pursuing my final year in cs and it's make guilty that i wasted my quarantine on just doing nothing.. i will you please make video on interview or tech and all. not much but an small part or may be a tips and tricks.
NEW RECORD, 2 vlogs in 2 days. I'll be answering all questions you might have for me in the comment section. Thanks guys love u
Edit: I spent $2,500 on BOTH ratemydorm.com and ratemydorms.com - I accidentally cropped out that part of the deal in the vid lol
Weird Asian hate encounters?
YAAY! SWE VIDS!!
How’d you negotiate to get both domains for half the price? Love ur content
How did you choose your college course/major?
What college degree/course did you take to become a software engineer?
You're like the cool kid in highschool that doesn't look down on others and everyone just wants to have you as their friend. Cool, but smart... and fit.
Facts 😂
Jed is making an app when he's bored. While me at 21, bored at home washing dishes 😵
LOLL
Same here...haha
That’s a good thing. When I am bored I play video games
This is a sign for me to start off with a handstand
It is the secret to success
Inspired ;
I was just thinking.. More blood flow to the brain has to be the key
Jed : i was bored so i made an app.
Me : I was bored so i was bored and im still bored.
Your story is so inspiring! Stories like this always give me hope about life after graduating! Thanks!

man the guy who made ratemyprofessor was rlly thinking ahead of time
Jed in Last vid: I don't really wanna make anymore videos on my career as a swe
Jed in this vid: this is how I landed a job as a swe
HAHAH
@@jedcal please dont stop making cs content
@@normal8852 Fine
Smart. I made some data science projects related to the pandemic when I was bored. It got me work at TCS.
What languages did you use
@@kaycampbell364 I used Python for coding, and I also looked into SQL
keep it up man, literally love how much time you spend on these videos and still manage to actually work on your job!
Next time I check out your website, I better see your title as CEO & TechnoKing of Ratemydorms
Yes Jed!!! thanks for blessing us with two vlogs in two days🤩 love ur videos!!
Thank uuuu!

AAYYYY 2 TIMES IN A WEEK GET HYPED FOR JEDDDD
This motivated me to work on personal projects and continue figuring out my next step in life with engr
Yes sir!!!
Inspiring to hear this bro. It’s awesome that you created something personal.
I landed my first software engineer role with American express after a bootcamp because of my projects. I built my own version of shopify so I could easily link it to my business website and update the products and not have to pay those monthly fees.
How’s AE?
@@andiuptown1711 got laid off in march
My boy Jed got that clean aesthetic quality🧼💯
Other people when bored: waste time on random stuff
Jed: does actual productive things
I strive to be Jed from now on

Do all the software engineers play the guitar so well while being able to do handstands like that? Nah! Only jed.
I literally listened to you all throughout this 10:18 video. Like the story telling
Jed the rate my dorm site is genius! Loving the vlogs from the UK! If you ever want to expand reviews to the UK lemme know!
Thanks!! Will do!

My question for you is
Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
&
Do you find any other cultures interesting? Would you step outside of your culture to be friends with someone in another culture.
Sorry my comment is so long, but I really appreciate your videos, your kindness, and gentleness dude. Please stay humble and stay you 🙌🏾 have a great day
smart man. I tell all my students to look around you the best ideas come from things you have experience with.
This is soooo goood...this got me pumped to continue my dropped side project...sometimes just laze around or so mentally tired or drained after my dev job that this side project of mine, I kind of was procrastinating, thanks for this 👍

youtube tutorial are great to start learning some coding! id start with Python tutorials
Hi Jed! Would it be possible for you to do a tutorial vid on how you made/designed your website? It would be so helpful!
