### Best Way To Support Me
Become a backend engineer. Its my favorite site

This is also the best way to support me is to support yourself becoming a better backend engineer.

MY MAIN YT CHANNEL: Has well edited engineering videos

Hey I am sponsored by Turso, an edge database. I think they are pretty neet. Give them a try for free and if you want you can get a decent amount off (the free tier is the best (better than planetscale or any other))

The short answer to why CS is dead ( which is a bit misleading ) It's not, CS as a field is very much alive and continues to be crucial in driving technological innovation and solving complex problems.

CS is about datastructures, algorithms, compilers, networking, assembly registers etc. programming is just a way to express those ideas

07:15 there are A LOT of students cheating their way through the bachelors, getting their stuff done by someone else or cheating on tests, or getting carried. It's insane

🤣 the layers of awesome here… his pseudo-prediction about it being a meme, the really well-thought-out responses that surprisingly map to comp sci, and the slayed response Prime had with the Shyamalan-like plot twist at the end. All. Gold.

Just in case somebody needs to hear it: SWE != CS
Software engineering is building a program.
Computer Science is figuring out the fundamental Math that supports SWE.
How did you think SQL came to be? That shit is based on Relational Algebra and -Calculus from the 70s. Yes, the fundamentals are that old.

CS was so good back in the day I was playing it for six hours a day while I was getting my CS degree. I wasn't coding in CS back then though, it was mostly C++.

What is your favorite CS: computer science, css, counter strike or C#?

In Germany there are still a lot of jobs which require (computer science) degrees.
It is becoming less frequent in the private sector, but if you want to work for the government, there are pretty hard rules in place which will limit how much you will be paid.

Even WITH a degree, good luck finding anything in this economy. I think people who have 5+ years of experience should shut up about this and listen. Every junior right now that is fresh out of college is in the same boat as all the community college guys and the code camp guys and the self taught guys. We're all in a huge ass pool of hyper competition and there is little opportunity to get that precious professional experience that recruiters are looking for. It's just unfair, they are not looking at our portfolios, they are not looking at our cvs. They see less than 5 years experience, they have a chuckle because they found someone with 5+ year experience then your cv with your letter and portfolio go through the virtual shredder that is the deleted mails box.

Something some people may forget:
Computer Science isn't programming.
Programming is only part of it.
Things like hardware design (of e.g. a CPU) is also part of Computer Science.

Recently when I checked job sites for web developers, the job posts I see are for full stack and senior engineers. I don't see any junior front end jobs and they all require college degrees with 5+ years experience - non internships. I've been studying frontend for about 3 years now working my security officer job full-time. I only know html, css and javascript which I still struggling with. I'm always in a state of anxiety where I think about giving up everyday. I don't even know how to get to the next level from here.

Agree with your points but ill add that there are plenty of people who get through a CS degree with rote memorization and forget 90% of class content after the semester. So many people barely get through discrete math, linear algebra, higher level algos and ds, etc. to the point where they might as well as not have taken the classes to begin with. Why take these classes if youre just going to forget all of the content and thought spaces?

Of course, this isnt everyone but there are plenty that fall into this bucket. Theres also the trope of people getting a cs degree but self proclaiming that youtube taught them.

Of course everyone is different, but im still not sold on the cs degree equating to a solid foundation.

Great points. One thing I’ve always related software engineering to is the physical engineering disciplines. If I said to any mechanical engineer, “I want to become a mechanical engineer in 1 year.” I’d get laughed at. That’s because each concept builds on the previous. You need foundations to understand more complicated principles. That’s why engineering degrees are generally 5 years and they are challenging.
I’m not trying to gatekeep (maybe a little bit), I’m trying to stress that we should step away from the disillusionment of becoming a Software Engineer “fast”. It just ain’t gonna happen, and if it does it’s because you have foundations in place.

Tired of CS grads complaining. CS has the highest employment of graduates within the field of their degree, offering some of the most diverse career paths among all STEM fields, and people still moan. The job market is perhaps tougher than it was but you need to get a grip if you think that CS grads are somehow uniquely affected by this, or that the market is uniquely bad in general. Besides, reddit and youtube influencer doomerism on the matter is not reflective of reality, as you just don't see the average normal employed person mention their status.

Computer Science is not for everyone! You not only have to get your degree but you have to constantly seek more knowledge about the niche that you are working in, and make adjustments if you think it is necessary.

That requires that you are comparing your skills to the skills of your competition, and also what is expected of you at your job

It’s hyper competitive but the reward is also competitive
