  • If you're anything like us, your RUclips recommendations are full of Jeff Delaney's videos - most of you probably know him under a different name however: Delaney is the creator and mastermind behind ‪@Fireship‬, famous for his enigmatic voice, his "100 seconds of Code" series and dry humour. We traveled to Arizona to meet the man, the myth, the legend, and ask him some questions about programming and his RUclipsr journey. How did he go from wanting to be a pilot, to an accountant, to a self-taught web developer, to teaching code to millions of people?

      There are a lot of humans. No matter what your idea is, there will always be some people who find it amusing and interesting. And there will also be people who find your idea boring and worthless. If you like making videos, don't think you might bore someone. Just keep pushing your videos, learn from your mistakes, and someday you will find yourselves some loyal followers who can help you PUT FOOD ON YOUR FAMILY.

I love to see how much he values his family and that he can do what he loves. I'm a freelance programmer myself and I know this is a great feeling, but can also be hard sometimes to push yourself through. Wish you all the best!
