Thanks man, I appreciate this a lot. I get up at 4am to code for 2 hours in the morning before I go to work as a storeroom manager. I am going to change my job eventually. Already building sites, but still need to learn to code more. Oh and the beard is looking good bro!
Sounds like you're already on track just stay on that grind! Keep building and hustling and you'll get it! And thanks for commenting on the beard. I'm fighting the wife on it because she's not a fan of the old man look 😅
@@DorianDevelops you mean "the man look"? 😜. My wife will fight with me if I shave it off!
@@DorianDevelops I love that look!
That's fabulous, definitely going to follow this approach...
@@DorianDevelops The old man look is great tho
Let's be real. Learning to code is not for everyone. But yes, learning to code can be very lucrative. To be self taught is pretty tough. It typically takes someone who has everything to lose and or a strong intellectual curiosity for how computers work.
I tried to teach myself a few times, but it wasn't till I had separation orders in my hand and my wife was pregnant that enabled me to take it serious enough to get my first job.
Like you it took me from entry level swd making okay money to only a few years later making well into 6 figures.
To anyone else watching this, it is worth it. These are the motivations I had, and I'm sure it can be done with less if you are more focused.
So you never went to school for it?
How many hours a day did you have to train please respond
now I'm a bit confused...you mean you didn't code as a SWD? And only now are you coding and making more than 100k?
I thought SWE/SWD code all the time..they're different?
Sorry, I'm brand new (2 weeks into a course lol)
@@joice2871why do you care?
@@ninjamokama3839 cause he put his business on the internet
Thanks for the encouragement. It's been about 4 months since I left a dead-end job to venture into software development. Sometimes it is tough but I'll get through it
Nice one buddy! Hard work pays off
Agreed Dorian. Dream it. Build it. That's the most amazing feeling of being a full-stack developer.
*Dorain Develops :* Was it worth ?
*IT students:* I have been asking myself for 3-5 years..
I find your videos great to watch after I put in a long study session.... after 4 hours of the tomato timer when i am feeling accomplished but mentally exhausted, its nice getting some inspiration from a guy thats been there and succeeded. Thanks as always man
I remember my first pomordoro timer 🍅 I think it might even still be on my github somewhere lol
100000$ a year, massive respect for being straightforward and honest about how much you make. This honesty will payoff in the long run please don't sellout to clickbaiting
Thanks for this video. I'm a highschool student, almost learnt django basics. Your video gave a motivation push to learn even more. Thank you.
Hey Dorian, bro man, god of humility and down to earthness-can you make a video hitting on the topic of developers being in fear of not having work due to no-code and outsourcing to people in 3rd world countries (they took our jobs-southpark lololol)-seriously though, gives me mad anxiety to be learning and busting my brain to potentially never have a chance due to everyone and their mother learning to code and over saturation! Thanks brotha! You the mannnn! ✌🏻❤️💪🏻
So funny that I've had that video idea written down for a while and was going to make it a month back when Co-pliot was all that news on RUclips. All I could think was how many times can I use the "They took our jobs!" from southpark in this video. Honestly I don't think you have anything to worry about. People were saying all this stuff 5 years ago when I was learning how to code. Truth is there's a lot of jobs and a lot of work out there and there's plenty of room for everyone to get a piece of the pie imo.
@@DorianDevelops well, honestly, it seems like things have changed quite a bit. I've spent a month building a trello lookalike with react/redux/firebase, i succeeded, and still didn't get hired at my last unpaid internship. Which honestly looks more like "we don't want to pay you anything for learning". It seems to me, that nowadays you have to know everything to get hired, cause the market is indeed somewhat oversaturated.
i think is like everything else in life, there are millions of jobs and millions of people trying to get that job, you have to show that you are the best among the average and stand up from the crowd
There is so much demand for this kind of work, it's pretty insane. Trust, programming jobs aren't going anywhere but up in the next decade.
Dude what's with the title saying the opposite of what you say in the video. My heart always sinks a little bit when I read these titles.
In the current world of RUclips you get more views with clickbait titles, especially click bait thumbnails.
I'm a network tech working OSI layer 2-3 primarily. Pay's not the issue, The boredom is. I learned programming pre-internet. I thought is was cool, but short-sightedly useless. I've known the benefits of linux open-source for 25 years, so I'll look into it. Thanks for the spark
I just love this guy. He is very authentic, not ur average bullshit youtuber. Thank u 🙏
Love how real and humble you are. Skills can never be taken away. The market may be rough now but it is only temporary. Eventually some positions will open up remain positive. Keep going.
Mm $5,000 or $13,000 a month for being a programmer. 🤔 I think it's better then working a minimum wage jobs and not able to pay bills.
I'll take the $5,000 a month paycheck over what I get pay now.
Hey Dorian, hyd? What an amazing video, it helps me to keep motivated and see that I am capable of doing great things like you. Wish you the best bro. 😁😁
Thank you for this. I work in Hvac & I recently started taking classes on codecademy hoping to change careers!
You got this!
Motivation is the hardest part, not the content itself
discipline > motivation
Such a positive pitch to learn code. This is so fantastic, good content man
Thank you for the encouragement! I have a part time job and I'm learning to code to make a career out of it. 🤩
It would be cool if you could make a videos talking about all of your streams of income.
Keep up with the good work! 💪🏼
I don't know I've been 5 years in this programming but still keep suffering all kinds of abuses for not knowing something from other so called co-workers. Total misfortune is this profession. 😔
This really encouraged me. Thanks 4 sharing
dude give me some of that money lmao but seriously i hope i get to where youre at one day. people just dont understand how something like this can change others lives. going from a fast food worker earning peanuts to software developer making so much that you dont even know what to do with it? Id say its totally worth it
It's strange for me to talk about the money and I'm not trying to brag but I think that the transparency helps people when they're interested in pursuing this as a potential career. Just remember it can take a while and doesn't happen over night but you can totally get there!
I dont get it why is the title the opposite of the video also could use more practical advise to get a job
I've spent most of my life jumping from careers. Working in private labs as an analyst, teaching science, exploring the police & military jobs, working offshore as a field engineer, working for Amazon, and now working in the NHS training to become a Biomedical Scientist...but I hate it. I'm currently a biomedical support worker, been doing my BMS trainee portfolio, but I've been hating the whole process and I know going for that job will make me miserable. I basically have no life and work lots of weekends and horrible shift hours too. The department is horrible right now and everybody is miserable.
I've had enough, I have the skills and experience to teach myself how to code, and that's exactly what I'm going to do. I've started my new path. I think my family and friends think I'm a bit crazy, but I'm more determined than ever to succeed. And that drive. That pure motivational energy I have will help me progress with my coding journey. The future is exciting!
Thank you for sharing.
Dude, I'm really like ur vids! They are very encouraging!
Glad you like them!
You're awesome Dude 👊
Click bait!! 💩
Sup bro, I ran into your channel and love the content. Very relatable and informative. I am also trying to learn to code so I decided to document it on a channel because you inspired me.
Does anyone else find the video title slightly misleading?
Thanks man, keep up the good work
I'm trying to learn how to code right now. I'm making some progress, but the uncertainty of it all scares me. Even my parents are asking me, what are you going to do after learning how to code. And too be honest I don't know. It's probably fear that's holding me back the most, and I just need some assurance that what I'm doing is not a waste of time.
its not. trust the process
Great video man! Keep it up!
Thanks brother i appreciate your sincere well wishes, you are a great human kind sirr, God Bless you and your family as well, im a beginner but ive been with pc's from day 1, since the good ole comp usa's, and inca , and the 386/486's were around. unrelated but im sure ill be getting paid for my sauce soon enough lol🙏🙏🙏
You're such an inspiration man..keep it up
The beard looks dope mahn😎
Thanks!
I'm confused about why the title is the complete opposite of what you said in the actual video.
i like how you bring attention to the vid by saying its not worth it but then say the exact oppisite
Thank you for this video Dorian, I'm currently in that boat rn dead end job that I have an exit strategy for in a year. I've already started looking at open positions but I haven't applied to anything quite yet I want to go more the UX/UI Design route, but I want to learn HTML and CSS to help me in that career path and also to help my relationship with Software Developers I would potentially be working with.
I just can't make it. Seems like every one thing I learn, I forget ten. I'm probably too old. But I'm glad things are going well for you you seem like a good guy.
No keep it up man, you are never too old!! It’s okay to forget things you can always relearn them!! I take notes and look back at them because I forget things too I’m 21, all I can say is you can do this
YOU ARE NOT TOO OLD!
What's happening is you're drilling this stuff too fast! You gotta play with it, try to build 3 things with the subject you learned, get the grip of it, before moving on.
Dude are you from the pnw? I’m from Tacoma and have been watching your videos for some time. Seeing the Seahawks hat got me excited.
Moved up here a few years ago. Was living in Oly but now we're up by Everett. Go hawks!
Hi there, just want to let you know that thanks for your video. Feels inspire whenever come to your channel when i am feeling down. The more i learnt how to code, the more i realise there is so much thing i don't know. Feeling disappointed.
Hey, thanks for sharing your journey bro. Hope you remain humble and keep motivating us !
Thank you, where did you go or where did you get the materials to study?
I really have not other choice if I fail at this its the end for me and I've accepted that
You still alive?
thanks
yeah
Thank you so much for this
I know salary is largely dependent on location, but if you’ve been in industry for 5 years and you’re not making $100k in straight salary, it might be time to find a new job lol
if you are not making 100k/y after 5 years you are selling yourself short or you don't have the skills XD
Where should I start.
what did your first web dev job pay?
I think I got my answer in the first 15 seconds. I’m only 22 and I have absolutely nothing better to do than learn to code , except play the guitar and produce. It’s fun .
Thanks for the great content man! I see you with a Seahawk hat, are you living in WA by Tacoma by any chance? I'm a self taught software as well, working in this area.
thanks for sharing these experiences to us....
in which year you start learning to code ?
I put together JavaScript (jQuery) website with JavaScript game engine based game, and I still know neither how I did it nor how to code, and it took me a lot of time, around three years altogether. CSS is completely messed up for me. Any thoughts on this? Btw what do you do in your software developer job exactly?
I want to teach myself how to code but I keep reading and hearing that math is essential and I’m not that good with math, do you have any advice?
Thank again for giving me another nudge when I feel I've lost my way a bit with jscript ughhhhh :)
You're so welcome! Just keep at it!
Thanks for halving competition!
You inspire me a lot.
Thank you!
Thanks I’ve been on the fence about learning web development as a way in the door and this video helps
Is it even worth it anymore now that ChatGBT is taking over?
I like your channel man but why would you make this title? I thought this was about the hard parts of learning, but you could've kept the NOT and it would've been less misleading.
Click bait..
@@DorianDevelops I guess that's good for bringing in people who are on the verge of giving up, give them one more boost
@@HandledToaster2 One of my most viewed videos is "Why self taught programmers fail or give up" the thumbnail says "Why you'll never make it" super clickbait but the message is mostly positive. Seems like people like/want to be told why they can't do something. So many comments on that video about the thumbnail lol humans are strange creatures...
@@DorianDevelops haha exactly man, I see what you're doing. People are easily persuaded into doubt and giving up, because they're insecure.
If I could suggest something, I'd change the exclamations into questions.
"Learning to code is NOT WORTH IT!" => "Is learning to code even worth it?"
"Why you'll never make it" => "Will you ever make it?"
Of course I'm nobody to tell you how to do your thing, I just think questions would sound less like a confirmation and more like a mirror for their insecurities. Some RUclipsrs change the title and thumbnail all the time because it brings more views when they find a combination that works better. Hope that makes sense :)
Hate the Clickbait, made me reconsider subscribing to this channel
Hey Dorian, how old are you man and how old were you when you started?
Thanks buddy
Thank you for always commenting and showing support!
thanks, man!
Do NOT learn how to code. Nowadays it is impossible to find a job. They all ask you to have experience. It is NOT worth it.
Is this you? I first thought you brought in a guest speaker today
Love it.
Thanks!
Awesome👏
nice clickbait
Hey pliz reply sir can i become Fullstack developer in 3 to 4month and land a job????
It's definitely possible!
@vijay have u started?? in 1 month I learned html, css, bootstrap, making responsive website layout, right now on javascript.. Thanks Dorian for ur Motivational Reply 🙏🏻😊
@@Raj-iz9uz really raj awesome i started learning mostly you become frontend developer in 2 months?? How much you code for day??
@@Raj-iz9uz front-end development is 90% javascript. And 95 out of those 90 are frameworks. You've still got a hell of a long way to go, don't get overexcited, so you won't get frustrated.
I've started about a year ago, and it feels like i know even less than when i started.
No way man. Focus in front end first and once you are comfortable you can eventually learn backend stuff. Full stack is way too much information to learn all at once.
So why does the title say that it's not worth it? 🥴
Title: Stop Trying to Learn How to Code.. It's NOT Worth It! ..as a self taught programmer
Video: ruclips.net/video/gq2AglURmiY/видео.html
U should do a qna livestream for noobies
💯 haven't done one in a while. Will try to get one going soon!
Awesome!
So basically this video was just a clickbait
What's up with the title? He said the complete opposite!
Clickbait
What's with the cheap title?!
keep the facial hair it gives you a good look.
Nice bait wow you must be desperate for views giving titles like this...
been doing this for 3 years, haven't made a dime or got an interview.
sigh.
Any update?
How sad was your wife when you shaved that glorious beard tho? lol
No need to learn , ai will replace soon
Seeing you with a beard is so weird.
So misleading :)))
You sound like you trying to sell it to yourself. 🤣
Title is not only click bait but completly false ...
Always remember to repent of your sins (sin is transgression of YAHUAH The Father In Heaven’s LAW: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, & Deuteronomy) And Have Belief On Yahusha The Messiah. HE Died and Rose three days later so that you can be forgiven of your sins!
HE Loves you! Come to HIM🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
None of that is true.
Is there anything worse than clickbait like this? Most annoying type of you tubers.
