I agree with what you are saying on the whole. Where most of the confusion comes from is confusing the terms 'developer' and 'engineers'. It does have a parallel with the construction industry. Developers use high level languages and established frameworks to construct an end product fit for general consumption. Think of a building company that constructs a building. They use establish standards, frameworks and documented products to construct something that the average person would not be able on their own from scratch. The plumber using a sealant, epoxy or other form of material did not create them from scratch. Instead they are able to look at existing solutions and their documentation bring them together as part of a constructed product. In a lot of ways, most coders would fall into this category of 'developers' and not be actual engineers. Engineers? They are the ones doing the hard math and scientific testing to ensure that a construction component's design or required equipment for installation is able to meet the task needed by the developer. The more complex the needs of the construction project there is, then it may necessitate the addition of engineers in the development team. This applies to both software development as well as the construction industry
in contrast, I'd say that even a plumber is kind of engineer. A plumber also engineers how various things fit in together to form a system. And that is what an engineer does right? And as for the thing about technical work not being done today, I feel that every generation builds on the work that came before. Like even the people that we think that did hard technical work, even they built on what was before. And we are doing the same. And another thing is, that as we learn new things, we kind of don't value what we learn. A personal example. There was a time when running a select join query was daunting to me. But not anymore. So I see the SQL I know as a skill that's not that tough to acquire. But I still do value and look in awe at the amazing SQL statements that advanced developers write. Just because I don't know how to do it. I think all this is subjective The reason you can say that anyone can do it is precisely because you know it. For a housewife that learns how to develop a stopwatch for Android, that act is engineering. Even if it is not something complicated.
I work with 2 Software architects (tech leads) one has a masters in computer science, and the other has a degree in anthropology , both doing the exact same thing. As if that wasn’t enough to make one wonder, their manager(dev manager) is a MBA in marketing. We are not in the 90s anymore.
Joe Rogan interviewed John Carmack and John Carmack had a great definition of an engineer, its being able to work in a system and make it do what you want. Data Plumbing is definitely part of the job!
A girl in tech here 🙋🏻♀️just wanna say thank you for addressing this. Going into CS I was intimidated by how smart I have to be in order to succeed in my field. While that's partly true, I also realized after working in the industry for almost 2 years that you can't just make it out by being "smart". You need to be good at problem solving, communicating, and collaborating with other people to work towards your shared goal. I SO agree with you on the more diversity we have in the this industry the bigger the impact we're going to make on the world. Love your rants :)
Hello :0 I'm not that smart, especially in maths pffff but I'm going to try to improve it on the way :) can you tell me about the importance and part of math you had in your journey? I'm really bad at calculus pffff I'll start my college next month
@@Valentinee_d4c awh dont feel bad about not being great at math! I actually hated calculus, well, I liked it at first until my college calculus class got hard xD I didn't do too well in them (I think I got a B and then C-). Tbh I never really used math once I started working in tech, so I wouldn't say it's too important, but having good grades will set you up for success in getting internships and jobs, so try your best!! The CS courses I took didn't have too much math involved so I wouldn't worry
Could you talk about if being interested in developing a video game could be a good motivation for learning about coding. Im currently learning about C# in combination with Unity
Most Devs like to be called Software Engineers because it sounds cool. But in reality, Brendan Eich is a Software Engineer, the rest of us are Software Kind-of-neers
That's also my opinion. I want to build a "palace of though" (Memory Palace), represented in lines of codes, because code is as beautiful as Marble column.
I can understand the comparison about just grabbing the data, but i feel like its more about the technique at which individuals go about it that makes it cooler than that. i would only deem individuals that develop techniques (or really just progress anything code wise) an engineer i guess
I've had the same thought. As I first started out I had all these innovative ideas. But as I continued learning, I realized that working for a company is very much like maintenance and expansion on an idea that has already been implemented. structuring data, linking code together etc. Being a good programmer isn't reinventing the wheel. But implementing and connecting wheels already invented. Atleast that's what most companies hire you for :)
I always thought the same, there is a thing in elixir called piping and it makes a lot of sense. The technicality is the difference between creators and users(devs) like those who create the framework/language and the dev who use the said language/framework. This is why if someone asks, i'm just a typist lol.
But the word plumbing is not the action we are doing when coding, so we are not plumbers, we do build things from scratch we engineer ideas so we are engineers, we calculate things
I took a Bachelor in CS when I was 40. There is a huge difference between how I code/think/understand before and now. Before bachelor I was only a programmer, now I can jump to 3D modelling, sniff my network, connect sensors to a RaspPI, compile a kernel and there is no limitation to what I could do with a CPU if I am given a bit of time to practice. Compared to a non graduate programmer my comprehension of complex code is deeper. Even teaching benefits from my study. You'll likey not be so good in explaining concepts if you would not be an engineer.
I completely agree! It's amazing how gracious a term, "software engineer" can be... People in the field like that term because it sounds super pretentious, just like "computer programming paradigm".
I peaked in my coding skills when I took Fortran in summer 1981 at local community college, ran a programmable calculator into the ground for Physical Chemistry 1983-1984 at college for my BChE Bachelor of Chemical Engineering degree, and took two semesters of C++, summer + fall, 2005, at the same community college. The more years I have put into struggling with coding, the less I know. I know less now after doing coding (I do only Python now) after 41 years of interacting with computers than I did when I took Fortran and C++ in school.
Well said sir mike😄 I'm starting following you since I've watch your full course video tutorial of c++ language in freecodebootcamp channel youtube..... You motivate us those who beginners that haven't any more knowledge on math stuff..... Strongly agree to you sir💯🇵🇭
I am a beginner in coding and building apps, trying to get an old app over to the web from QB6 so I am relying on people like you to help and you have. I watched a lot of your older videos which helped me and your new ones really speak to your new found experience, it really comes through. I was trained as a mechanical Engineer back in the 70's punching cards for PL/C , fortran and APL actually on a live terminal at Cornell, but I have to say this coding now seems so convoluted. I understand my skill base is not really a professional programmer but I have taken a few courses over the years in Pascal, C++, C and taught applications courses in quick Basic and VB6 and have graduate courses in CS so I have the theory. I have to confess I am having a hard time getting started with HTML, CSS, JS, PHP and SQL. I have taken some on line courses, watch YT videos daily and also hired a mentor which has helped tremendously but it is a slow process. So bottom line, I am finding it tough but I am pushing through but seems like it would be easier to program in 2021 then in 1975. I appreciate your help as an educator, that is where I spent most of my career, great to see the passion. Thanks for listening
@GiraffeAcademy - check out Alan Turing's lecture to the 1947 London Mathematical Society, where he predicts, "The [programmers] are liable to get replaced because as soon as any technique becomes at all stereotyped it becomes possible to devise a system of instruction tables which will enable the electronic computer to do it for itself… They may be unwilling to let their jobs be stolen from them in this way. In that case they would surround the whole of their work with mystery and make excuses, couched in well-chosen gibberish, whenever any dangerous suggestions were made."
All dancers, singers, religionists: preachers, the pope, screenwriters, comedians, composers, athletes, artists, actors are just entertainers. That is all they are. None of them is useful. See? I can throw the adjective "just" before any other noun to belittle it. At least I have justification to belittling entertainers, because they really are overpaid and unnecessary.
Linus Torvalds once quoted that "Bad programmers worry about the code. Good programmers worry about data structures and their relationships" so as a student I do agree that coders are data plumbers and there should be more focus given on how we manage data more then how to write code. It is common misconception that coding sucks for beginners because you are exposed to a lot of unfamiliar terms, keywords, logic and syntax immediately when learning a particular programming language where there is so much to grasp at one go. This is maybe a big reason why many students fail to learn coding and that is because they were not properly introduced to reason they learning that programming language in the first place. I think it very important to question about what is the purpose of this programming language first and what it used for?(which is data handling), Therefore i think that it is very important that we must help students to understand about data and how they are handled in a computer. Once we get the grasp on data handling then i think the coding session will become very easy for every beginner no matter which language is learning to code.
please make a follow up to your 'Learn Phython - Full course for beignners'. What is the next step, how can we apply what we learned? I love your teaching style! Can we actually apply some of the things already for usefull tasks? Also, you should ask them to add your youtube channel on the video!
Mike, I'm so HAPPY you started to post again. Your HTML and CSS tutorials just started my whole coding journey. I'm enrolled in a bootcamp rn and I'm the one that literally helps the teacher explain better to other people what some tags mean thanks to YOU. I'm SO thankful, I literally felt so dumb until i found your tutorials, nothing was sticking. I would be so lost in the bootcamp without these courses before. Thanks so much for everything, I owe you my future job lol! Going to JS next
39 been a plumber for 4 years on my own, learning now programming on my own 🤣 I started to like both endeavors, but programming feels more comfortable as a skill than working in extern conditions 😂
programming is tye hardest thing I've ever done. It's been 3 years and I still suck. my point nit everyone is meant to be a programmer. I thought hey let me try this but you truly need amazing logic skills. the funny thing is I'm a great car mechanic troubleshooting problems but when it comes to programming I suck
what is non-technical about a plumber? :-P and you are spot on imho, because as opposed to searching for issues on a pipe and fixing them, a developer searches for (and fixes) issues in code. analogies exist and all of them are more-or-less accurate.
Saying you need math to start programming is like saying you need math for learning a foreign language. You don't. The no code, low code revolution is coming.
no, not just a plumber, sometimes the client wants hot water directly from their shower, so we have to set-up water heater too. sometimes source water is stinky and dirty, so we have to set up water purifier. ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
I think I got your point which is to make it easy on the new beginners and people who are afraid of all the coding and stuff but. we should also know that even plumbing needs' engineering scale to make water flow easy and smooth right? the task is easy not to do it but it is also easy to do it if you learn the right way. In the end, I just want to add; it only needs practicing and good engineering to write algorithms in the right way.
Judging by your definition, I'm definitely a data plumber, most probably I will never be more than that. But I'm also in my first years, and case you forgot, let me tell you that it's not easy. This abstract thinking is not easy to get accustom with. We do need more creative people in the industry, but if they use to be bad at math, most likely this kind of abstract thinking that we do it's not something they will find easy, and they will just give up on the first hurdle. I've seen it so many times
So here’s my story Ive learned front end then i stopped and jump into android developement then after a year i jumped again into web development now im again thinking to jump to android development ...(Im jumping cos the android studio has better future than web development ) can some body give me a advice
Mike, your attitude toward this very conventional things are very appealing. This is very progressive, very radical and very open-minded . Thumbs up. Keep doing this!!! This is a very fresh approach which we were in lack of for a very long time. Keep hyping on it!
I guess it depends on the programs being made. If you program a flight simulator to train plane pilots then it is not just to move data or files around.
I've reached this conclusion too, but I personally think data plumbing is boring. The most interesting programs, the things that make me love programming, are all based in technical skill and necessary complexity.
I am a 6 month to industry and I consider myself still beginner but at first i was confused i started with your python tutorials and then go to other tutorials and i learned django, GUI , html and css but still confused to really how to build a real world app that useful or I wanna myself learn AI and ML 2 times but I have found sth and I learned but implies them to real world app it's an obstacle
I dont think so. I havent really looked into wix but i believe it might be more for smaller businesses. Having complete flexibility is key sometimes too
Couldn't you also think of software developers as air traffic controllers? There are a lot of moving pieces and a lot of noise in your system, but you still have to find a way to get it all working efficiently and on time, without crashing.
This whole dialogue is self-explanatory! Just like how I can work with carpentry things in my backyard even though I'm a professional software developer, vise-versa, if we motivate a carpenter to write some stuff on screen, he could be more excellent than us in writing. It's all about concepts! That's it. The real work is done in our industry by the researchers who keeps evolving the algorithms by working on extremely low level!
This is why there needs to be specific identifiable strams like we had in the 90s. Plumbers, engineers, developers for example were defined, and depending on how smart you were you cross over band do multiple streams.
Was thinking the same thing recently. Was watching my boss working on a piece of equipment at a golf course where I work and he was going through testing different stuff and suddenly it clicked in my head that programing is just like being a mchanic or building something. Same thing except your sitting and looking at words!
I'd like to see you start a podcast. Let me know if I should say please.
Yes, Mike would be awesome on a podcast!
Totally agree
I don't listen to podcasts but if he starts making a podcast, then that is defiantly going to change

Pick one or be mediocre at both. Be decisive and live with your decision, if bad then learn from it

. Thumbs up. Keep doing this!!! This is a very fresh approach which we were in lack of for a very long time. Keep hyping on it!

You are a coding teacher that everyone wants at there college.
You explain thing so clearly.

Hey Mike! Can you also teach us raylib?
true, can you do a video on whether web devs will soon be replaced with platforms such as wix
I dont think so. I havent really looked into wix but i believe it might be more for smaller businesses. Having complete flexibility is key sometimes too
Wix is very child level web development.

I saw a programmer's blog whose bio said: I move pixels around the screen
LMAO thats actually correct 🤣🤣
Well...we do need plumbers, right? 😛
I have used this analogy I agree
more of these plus what would you advise to future dev
What is an object? In python its an instance of a class. In js its a dictionary. Are they the same?
First coment
Node js and npm tutorials please ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
Couldn't you also think of software developers as air traffic controllers? There are a lot of moving pieces and a lot of noise in your system, but you still have to find a way to get it all working efficiently and on time, without crashing.
waiting for bootcamp.....
Man you are like a wiki of programing
We need react again
data engineers be like ...
This whole dialogue is self-explanatory! Just like how I can work with carpentry things in my backyard even though I'm a professional software developer, vise-versa, if we motivate a carpenter to write some stuff on screen, he could be more excellent than us in writing. It's all about concepts! That's it. The real work is done in our industry by the researchers who keeps evolving the algorithms by working on extremely low level!
i like what ur saying
U r jeki chan in programming
This is why there needs to be specific identifiable strams like we had in the 90s. Plumbers, engineers, developers for example were defined, and depending on how smart you were you cross over band do multiple streams.
I agree
Was thinking the same thing recently. Was watching my boss working on a piece of equipment at a golf course where I work and he was going through testing different stuff and suddenly it clicked in my head that programing is just like being a mchanic or building something. Same thing except your sitting and looking at words!
that makes sense aaaaaaa
