Coding Is Changing...Here Is What You NEED To Know

Coding is changing faster than ever in 2024. There are 3 things you need to know if you want to keep up: Coding is easier than ever to learn, more people know how to code or are learning how to code than ever before, & AI tools like ChatGPT have demolished the barrier-of-entry for building technical projects.

The more I learn, the farther along I get, the more behind I feel.

As someone that is interested in coding but don't really have a direction the whole "you can learn for free" can be daunting in itself. There is so much material out there that you don't know if you're going down the right path or an incorrect path in general. At this point I spent more time scanning for the right direction than actually doing any learning.

This is why I drive a bus and just code as a hobby. In that way, I'm not worried about having a job and I don't need to jump through these types of hoops. And best of all, when I code, I could do everything MY way!! My life is beautiful and I'll be headed for vacation in Thailand soon too!

[xevious]

I'd argue ChatGPT does not destroy the barrier to entry at all. If you don't understand the output, or you don't understand the topic well enough to actually know when it's hallucinating, it can be less than useful to dangerous.

This adds so much stress and pressure to my wellbeing. I'm so slow and starting to fall behind. I'm starting to dread the thing I loved (coding and programming).

So basically we have to become expert God tier 10x DevOp engineers with experience in marketing before we can even get an internship that doesn't pay us anything at all. For people who are poor and live in the middle of nowhere, that's like asking us to walk on water.

I've honestly worked so hard to become skillful and just when I develop a particular skill, it becomes obsolete or just not enough anymore. I can't be the only one that can relate to this. I mean, there's people that get a high paying salary in tech just because they have experience in marketing or management but have very little programming skills, if any. Meanwhile there's guys like me who have genuine knowledge and skills, but no real work experience with the above mentioned. It's infuriating ngl.

Beginner programmer here in Africa. I Want to hit the ground running and really make some progress this year. Last year i was dabbling around which language to learn. I choose python and started learning when i had the time. I always felt like i needed a structure. So, this video helps so thank you.

[sinfulprayer]

I graduated in December of 2022 with my bachelors in software development and I applied like crazy to a ton of jobs, but everywhere made it feel like he said, you needed 5+ years of experience to get in. Im going to follow these steps and really try to step up my game, get really good at one thing and display it with projects. Its just hard cause you go to school and do all the work and think, yes, I did it. Only to find out you just started...

[mkaufmandev]

I don't feel like there's anything new here that hasn't been true in the past 20 years except that AI makes it easier to pretend to know how to code lol .

[sudghst]

I totally agree that AI is changing the game, making it clear that basic coding skills aren't cutting it anymore. Sure, AI can whip up code, but when it comes to structuring projects securely, it's a whole different story. The lack of solid DevSecOps practices with AI-generated code is a real bummer.

Seeing this AI boom, I decided to pivot to DevSecOps and ditch traditional development for a dive back into cybersecurity. Let's face it, while AI can be a handy tool for devs, the code it spits out in the wild often feels like it's straight from a hasty StackOverflow copy-paste job. It's not really the AI's fault but more about how we're using it – the whole 'slap my code in and let the prompt fix it, then push if it compiles' mentality.

But getting quality, secure code from AI? That's a skill on its own. It's all about crafting the right prompts, explaining inputs and outputs clearly, and setting out your project goals and structure. Then comes the fun part of reviewing the AI's output and tweaking the prompts to get it to write tests and optimise this is a profession in itself now

I reckon mastering prompt engineering and understanding the AI workflow is gonna be super handy down the line and understanding DevSecOps, Tests, code coverage and such practices will me a much needed skill-set

I retired in 2017 after over 50 years in the IT community. I am working on a couple of personal projects for my own enjoyment. I have always been amazed at the continuing number of opportunities in this field, but I am also painfully aware of the need to keep abreast. This video has some fantastic advice.

[samuelkovanko]

The hard part also is project management, how you solve problems and learn from them + ofc modern tools. Coding is becoming the easy part

[aroncanapa]

Over a decade of trying to get into the field, studied software applications programming at itt tech, took full stack bootcamp, was going to finish going to computer science with my gi bill, just done I give up, never had a single interview ever

[unclechaelsneckvein]

I'd love a full video on what to specialize in. If you could, please give us an exhaustive list, eg. web dev, mobile dev, embedded dev, data science, ... what technologies to learn, what to expect, ... etc.

[Big_chicken-okgc]

Your like a news reporter in the programming world. Great video. I always learn something in your videos!

[KrbalSpace]

If you do a job that relies on a GPT to produce code you couldn't write or understand yourself anyway, then you aren't someone I'd employ as an engineer. Be aware of it by all means, but know that it nor only can generate crap, it can open you up to unwilling copyright violation and even worse.

[life_life]

I started coding with Java. Then move to python. I was amazed by how easy it is to pick a new language after learning one thoroughly.
I'm now focused on design, architecture, computer science theory, problem solving skills.
Since today these languages are so well documented with lots of framework in such a way that you never have to reinvent the wheels.
That's why I'm focused on problems solving

[pilotashish]

specialisation could work against you as well. You could specialiase in something that's entirely automated tomorrow. That's why over the long term, being a generalist helps. While becoming expertise in one domain can give you an edge, you should also try to build a solid foundation, which will help you to pivot to anything else quickly.

[fernabianer]

strongly disagree on the first 30 seconds already. "anyone can build xyz and so forth". I've seen people try, fail and quit weekly since I started helping out on different discord servers meant to help enter the field. True it has become easier to get in! Even while some learn it successfully building software still isn't for everyone.

Also about GPT and Bard, using those tools feels like explaining programming to a 5 y.o. at times. They are very good at explaining basics and some principles, just when it comes to more complex, unique or new stuff they mess up with the confidence of a todler, convinced he could build a house.

can u make a tuto about using chatgpt for beginners plz ! ty for the Awesome Content ♥!
