What’s up! If you have any questions I didn’t answer comment them below
Do u jave to be a very fast typer
Hey, I'm a new subscriber and hope that you answer questions in the future.
Gyasi. I've talked to you once and I need help again. I've only taken 2 programming courses in my college which is C++ and Matlab. I want to become a software engineer but my curriculum does not offer any more classes than that considering that they do not have software engineer but they do have computer engineering. I'm at my junior year going into my 6th semester and still clueless of how will I get to software engineering if there's no other programming courses that will help me excel. Is there any other areas in where I can learn more programming specifically for software engineering and a place where I can show a folder of all my coding. I stress everyday about engineering because I feel that I'm not good enough and I love doing photography and filming as a hobby and you doing you TH-cam and engineering inspires me to be like you or to get to where you are at. Thank you for reading.
@@akktavisttm3684 being able to type faster is a benefit for you and your job . Typing fast is not of of software engineers skills but it's good too keep practicing then u will be able to type fast
What are the remote job prospects?
I homeschool my children and I’m looking to enroll in online college for computer science. I would love to be able to work from home and continue homeschooling.
Everytime I doubt myself with college, your videos always give me motivation!
Keep having faith you can do it!
You’re vids get me hyped to go deeper into my field. The way you explained life as a computer science major is exactly how I want to live. Keep up the quality vids man 👍🏾
This video was soooo helpful with clearing some doubts I had , thank you!!
Currently in Computer Science, a 2nd year student... I'm halfway through! Lets hope I go all the way :)
Keep it up! It'll all pay off👍
With technology advancing everyday, It'd definitely pay off. Which im pretty excited about.
You gon fail, I don’t believe in you..😂 kidding, pull through because you came this far!! Don’t give up!! 💯🇨🇦
You are an inspiration to me thank you so much for your videos and helping me to stay motivated
Great video Gyasi! Keep up the good work.
Manual Exposure 🍻 Love the vlog
love watching your videos
There should be a merch design competition. :) Luv the vids bro.
You're my new favorite cs youtuber
As a high school student who is currently in Ohio and also wants to pursue a Comp Sci degree, your videos are extremely helpful. I would definitely want to learn more about your experiences in college and in the real world. The Q&A helps a lot. Definitely want more 👍
Awesome video.. Learned a lot and I've been questioning myself if I should change to computer science but after watching this I'll stick with software engineer. so thank you 😄

seem u like math I am new subscriber cheers for u bro good luck in your major and yea keep it up
I start CS at Ohio University in January. Any tips on networking this early? Is it possible I can network with you?
Hey bro I hope you are doing well. Question. What would be the best tip in nailing an internship? I am currently a computer programming major and I want to work with either software development/game development/ and programming. Any tips fam?
*its not the size of the christmas that matters, its how you rock it*
Thats what she said
2 + 2 is 4, quick maths
Thank you for the informative video!!!
But can you please make a video about the differences between computer engineering and computer science?
Merch Bro! 🔥
This was a pretty informative and interesting video!
Merch bro

Nice vibes on your content....
im in high school, and i really want to major in computer science. Any tips to get prepared? I always hear how stressful itll be.
Gyasi umm do u jave to be a really fast typer to get into this work
are computer scientist software engineers? the college i attend had the major that used to be called "CS & Software Engineering" and now is only "Computer Sciences" though the study plan has remained the same and now we take 5 extra math courses
I am from India .how to get inserted in computer science??plz say ir
5:40 "I haven't used any math in my internships or any math full time".
As someone who's been doing software engineering for around a decade, I can tell you that the ability to use math (particularly discrete math) sneaks up on you, and occasionally makes your life easier. You'll find little optimizations that you might not otherwise have thought of, and sometimes that's enough to get you a bit of an edge against other programmers.
I want to get into cyber security (mostly because of the higher employment gaps) but don't really know what's the best way to get into it since I don't have any background in IT.
Do you have any suggestions on what I should study first? Or should I just go straight into college?
@maliboo I suggest u start with learning the Certified Ethical Hacker syllabus and then progress to Comptia Security+ followed by other related essential certifications. U dont have to take the tests now but study the topics invovled. The cyber security field requires u to take these certs and they will hire ppl with those certs over someone with a degree without those certs. Degree is a plus.

Which one do you think is better between masters in computers and masters in software engineering for someone with a bachelors degree in IT?
Hello there I got a question I really like coding and want to become a software engineer I’m a senior in high school and got in a little trouble my freshmen and junior year. after college will jobs see this and not hire me !?
Hey @Gyasi linje should I pursue electrical engineering with the intention of becoming a software developer?
Please what cause can you do in senior high school if you want to be a computer scientist
4:10 I'm an aerospace engineering major, thinking about switching to software engineering before It's too late (before I start actual engineering core classes), and I've already taken calc 3 and I think my school only requires up to calc 2 and then a choice of any upper level math for software engineering. But I think deep learning math is cool. I don't like repeatedly setting up and solving integrals just for the practice though.

Q&A weekly and merch 🙌
What if I’m 28 and have a learning disability I’m currently interested in computer science I’m just not as good at math as I would like to be will that hinder me
@ 9:35 What do you mean turning something into nothing?
Can I use a computer science degree to become a software engineer?
Hey dude can you make a video on how computer science from school is different from wha you do at work?
Q/a weekly!
How is the work/life balance? Are you able to keep a relationship
i'm studying in this field but really hate maths..
Mee too Broo
i feel you
Why? Once you figure out math you will start to love it.
Exactly. Sit down with a teacher/professor and they’ll help you with math. Once you understand it, it’s great
@Anthony Renfro it just doesn't work, i prefer studying something else instead of losing my time, i can afford a bad grade
What's programming language use by you? I use C Sharp and PHP.
Will You do some of tutorial stuff?
Q & A weekly
how time complexty in real world implemented
Please do a video on computer science degree vs computer programmer degree? Thanks
a weekly qna would be awesome
*Software engineering has a lot of math involved. It has more courses from science as well*
Sadly my country india does not have dedicated cs or swe
True
Am a junior in a computer science, but i need to need to know it more
I can you help friend?
Q+A every 2 weeks
Can I become Software Engineer after doing Computer Science as major in Undergrad?
How early in high school did you know you wanted to go into CS or become an engineer?
Way at the end like a month or two before graduation
Is there science involved? If so, what kind?
Yea moreeeee
who makes more money? software engineers or computer scientist?

Q&A Monthly
Two semesters left until I have my bachelor’s in computer science. I am both excited and nervous for the future, especially with the current job I have in the service industry. I live in upstate NY where there are no tech companies. My family and I plan on relocating once I finish school. However, I am worried about not having any internship experience. Will this impact my chances of securing a job out of school?
Hey just curious, did you ever get this figured out??
Me too curious, 🌚
It's been 5 years, I'm sure you would have had a job by now if you didn't switch careers!
#Q&AWeekly
9:34 nothing into something*
I want to make a software and I am majoring in computer science because I like artificial intelligence. I am not that good in math. Should I switch to software engineering??
software engineering has just about the same amount of math. now add physics on top of that.
I want to laugh but I don't want to give u the impression that I'm mocking you because I'm not: software Eng is EXTREMELY math intensive!
Regarding math and computer science, because this comes up a lot. Computer science is a sub field of mathematical logic, which is itself a sub field of mathematics. Most early computer scientist have very strong roots in mathematics, particularly Alan Turing, which was a famed logician. Because mathematics is foundational to computer science, it's most often isnt ignored.
There has been a push to dumb down the curriculum. So I don't know what they teach students anymore. With that said, I don't see how they teach complexity theory without getting into some math. But again colleges have become paper mills, so anything that ups their graduation rate is important
does the IQ of a person matter regarding to pursue a major in CS? I have an IQ of around 110, but I have read a lot about the average of a engineer IQ is around 128-130. It will be very beneficial is you share your thoughts on this particular topic. thanks!
Nobody talks about "Computer Engineers" only "Software Engineers", Why? Or is it because the field is not as Lucrative?
I think computer engineers were more for the time of early Apple such as Steve Wozniak. I think some of the new CE stuff would be quantum computers but don't take that for fact I ain't a god lol.
Because it's harder to teach Computer Engineering at scammy bootcamps. It's easier to emphasize software development, or really just web development for beginners. CE takes mathematics, physics, and a core understanding of computer internals. Most CE typically come from an EE background which us a notoriously difficult major to clear.
@@MrBranh0913 wow you have a point, but I thought mechanical Engineering is a harder major compared to Electrical engineering
@@mindhunter8772 I dont know much about mechanical engineering. But without question EE is considered one of the harder if not hardest major in most schools. Since you need a good understanding of physics and you need to get into higher mathematics with differential equations. That alone will discourage most students.
These lifestyle blogs are mostly about demonstrating how anyone could be a programmer. Which is not true. Anyone can make a shitty web app in react. But not everyone can write robust software that doesnt break.
Hey man, quick question. I'm full time working. Doing computer science part time degree(accredited) and doing programming on the side(java) am I being realistic for going into software developing? I'm 19 and will be 25 once degree is over( as my point above it's part time)
Thanks and Q and A would be awesome
25 Years old is not a bad age. There are people in their 30s in college trying to get a bachelor's. More than your age employers just want to make sure you understand the concepts
@@allthatshines1008 Do you say this from experience?:) and thank you I do put 100% in and appreciate the comment
Why would being 25 be an issue 🤣? If anything employers prefer someone a bit older for maturity/responsibility reasons
@@mikeb4471 the age was just another point. The main thing was it's a part time degree and obviously It would take me twice as long to finish a degree as someone as someone in a full time degree. Just wondered if it put me in a disadvantage that's all
Your side projects could score you a job easily. It's all about understanding and willing to learn. I've seen plenty of jobs hire before you graduate. It's all about how you sell yourself and the work you show. So don't worry about your age when your degree is over, as long as it's what you want to do.
Talk about coding boot camps
Not to be rude but I really want to know how much you make!!
Whats different between computer science and software engineering its same ??
.
Im currently in a community college and transfering to a university for programming, to be in the field is getting a master's degree neccessary.
No I’m a software engineer with an as
i want to see you coding
Bro i really dont know which one to choose, wtf
You need to preclude your statement about a CS degree and money... it's very hard to get a CS degree, that's why only 10% of students go into this field and maybe 10% of those students finish the 4 year degree... yea HARD!
What languages are big in Ohio? Down the St in Kentucky it’s C#, some python and JavaScript that I know of.
Im in Discrete math right now....... SCARED AF LOL
How do you even go about getting an internship I've applied to so many over the course of like 3 semesters and have had so many interviews but all I keep getting is rejections and I feel like I'm running out of time :/ The job market for tech honestly sucks it's so competitive it feels impenetrable! The only people who I see getting in are people who already have connections inside the companies that can get them in. They also usually ask for previous internship experience which is ridiculous considering that internships are supposed to be your first experience!! I've worked on so many personal projects and even posted them to the Play Store but recruiters seem to unimpressed unless you already had an internship at Google or Facebook (which are virtually impossible unless you get extremely lucky). Sorry I'm ranting but it just feels like I'm never gonna get there at this pace, I was very disappointed by what I expected the opportunities in tech to be before I came to college vs. what is actually attainable to those that don't have close connections already inside the tech companies.
@Anthony Renfro I'm still in college. I've been trying non-stop for 3 semesters, so much so that I've even neglected school work at times because of it because I'm so desperate for one. I've had tens of on-campus and phone interviews and have gotten flown out to on-sites twice already, but still no offer :/
@Anthony Renfro Yup! I've had meetings with career advisors, mentors, done mock-ups, everything. The job supply in tech has gotten oversaturated I guess.
@Anthony Renfro I keep trying to not lose morale but it's nerve-wrecking because I'm going to graduate a year early so if I can't secure an internship this summer I'll be basically graduating without any experience, which would make landing a job so much harder!
@@bernardo6715 portfolio is key bro. and only insert outstanding projects in ur portfolio. have a usp too. choose a rather uncommon language compared to JS C++ like ruby on rails and build something out of it. try applying somewhere that isnt saturated or maybe startups with low pay internship, i would be willing to take on an unpaid internship if i haven get any. start freelancing as a consultant n approach companies giving suggestions like their website UI UX etc and offer them to help out with the code behind their website etc. hope this helps a lil.
Merch bro
did this guy just say that html is a programming language and did he say that javascript is for back-end....I feel sorry for first time coders listening to this
You should start a podcast

javascript is a "backend" programming? tf
I guess they're talking about node.js. but I dont think Node.js is a spectacular backend language. But newbies like the guy in this video doesnt know any world beyond Javascript and web development.
