Things I Wish I Knew About Programming

The only person other than my mom who calls me gorgeous/handsome

Liking your content a lot my dude. I'm an experienced SQL developer trying to pick up some web dev skills and I appreciate how grounded your stuff is. Keep on keeping on.

"They didn't even put up the website… It's still the lady with the hat"
…Because you didn't host it for them, duh : -)

Please trim your mustache line, so distracting seeing hair grow over your lips lol

You're cool. (this is one of the few youtube channels I've EVER commented on!!)

Hey!
don't know if here's the right place to ask it or not, but so far from what I understood from you, I guess you're the best person to help me figure some stuff out.
so, I'm a 21 university drop out from Iran who's moving to Portugal to study at the University of Coimbra with literally 0 dollars in my pocket!
I just have enough to survive for a month and I was wondering how is finding a job in a foreign country, how is studying in a country that's not even speaking English as their main language?
I'm so stressed out about all of these that I'm literally desperate to find a person to tell me the truth about immigration and finding a job.
I had the same issues with getting started at programming as you did and I'm also having the same immigrant background I guess.
I worked as a front end web developer using react in Iran for a year for a big branded company and I'm just so nervous about the path I'm going…
can you tell me the reality of immigration and being a web developer with the passion of becoming a youtube animator? 😀
the part you started talking about the developer burn out… I really felt that I forgot about my family till the point that I lost them forever and I can't, still to this day get over it.
god, I'm bitching way too much about life, sorry 😀
I know it's not what you can answer quite right, but sorry that I'm so desperate that I'm asking it here from you.
have a nice day dude. you're really inspiring me to overcome my fears and become a better version of me. <3

That setup is…*gorgeous*

Nice final message! You're great Ed, we can get a lot from you. Thanks for sharing it all!

Dev Ed what would you say is the best way to learn Web Development? I am a beginner and i would greatly appreciated it if you could give me some tips 🙂

I first came to your channel when you had 13k subs. Congrats on almost 170k subs🤯😀

You are the reason why I am programming right now!

Daca nu vedeam pe github ca scrie Romania, puteam sa jur oricand ca dupa accent nu esti roman. Chestia asta nu poate decat sa ma bucure, sa vad ca romanii prind notorietate (daca putem sa o numim asa) pe youtube. Keep the work going, you're making good shit. 😀

Thank you ed. It feels so good to hear such words from you.
Especially the last Advice is helpful in my situation.
I am working 40 hours per week at my job and i am developing the rest of the day on a complex website for a well known contact.
It often occured that i just get out of bed and work the whole day until i get back to bed.
It is just like you said, I need to find a good balance.
Thanks for mentioning this, this makes me rethink my situation.

Been there, done t… still there

Love the last thing you mentioned, super helpful!

i love the gorgeous frnd in the background haha
and hey man thanks alot for everything.

I also started at 16 . And I am now 17.

"I was IMPRESSED and my mom HATED it!"……🤣🤣

Am I only one who think that Ed is Prgorammer's Messi? 😀

5:35 You’re right I did both. XD

You are the best . Thanks for sharing, I'm starting right now and try to learn java and CSS as well I heard that react is important also. A lot work to be done but you're a mentor for me. Yes really ! I love your style and personality and I hope someday I can be good at it . Have a wonderful day.

No you need acoustic foam. Also setting up directly in the middle of the room is bad (don’t know if you are just saying)

To reduce the echo, you can also stick egg containers or put some thing strong around yourself…😂😂😂

OK guys – you've heard it. It's time we removed that to-do list and music maker app from our portfolio.

I love this video, you've shared nice points. YOU'RE FREAKIN COOL!!

Happy Diwali, My gorgeous friends on Internet

Can't be guilty if you don't have a portfolio

Love it Ed!

Am missing your magics you always do at the beginning of your videos.

Last time I "got off my chair" from programming it took me 3months to go back 🙄

I have a e-commerce website in my to do list but i still have a long way to go

My boii Ed is only 24? I did some bad math. My boii so young

i love u ed 😭 when you talking 💜

I like the new setup, however, I really think you should hang up some soundproof foam or something (because I think poster would be great for the backdrop but some classic black foem would be more productive and efficient) maybe do both:)

I just discovered ( for a month ) you in the internet and I should to say I'm so f*cking having fun and getting more useful stuff to improve myself. Keep doing this job maaan. You'r videos just amazing… instructive and funny as well… GORGEOUS !!! 😀 Good news is you have 1 more GORGEOUS FRIEND ON THE INTERNET right now 🙂

Put up some cornflakes ;D

you're always stunning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

500th like

Ed, i find JS super fraking hard. Am i alone here am I slow. I have built a commercial site up and got paid but now am here stuck I see no progress. No incentive to do anything. I'm confused

A redux todolist is not bad including edit mode etc, since that itself isnt that easy to implement

I do agree with the tutorials, but at the same time what i like to do is for example a tutorial on GraphQL and afterwards build something with graphql, some people like to start building immediatly but in my opinion that often gets me lost and gets me into bad habits so :// i like tutorial then building something, and obv i learn that which i found interesting or hearing lots about such as react graphql angular lavarel django and more.

The last part on "LIFE BALANCE" got to me. Thank you for this video. I describes what I'm going through right now.

Hey. I'm first time at your channel, because somehow (maybe by an accident) your video was in Traversy Media playlist, video which isn't related to the playlist. Probably accident.

Anyway. I watched this video. You look like a serial killer, who decided to not become a serial killer and become a developer. Even tho serial killer is still in you. You just choose your unnatural road.

I will stick with the channel and see what you got here, Mr. Killer.

Just don't kill kids and animals, keep coding! Thanks

I love this guy! Thanks for helping me stay in programming, Kudos man! 👍

If I succeed in life is because of you just so you know..

Sir if you dont mind …
I wanna ask you a question…
What do you do..for living…
Are u doing freelancing as a web designer/ Developer…or doing a job in a specific company..or anything else?

thanks

First: stop watching other's doing programming.
