I completely agree with the last point, I love listening to music in general but when coding I work best when I'm paying attention to only the code haha.
Nice video
I like the tip about explaining a problem to yourself out loud. Personal experience taught me that it works. 😊 Nice video.
Another masterpiece for us all! I gotta say man, your videos help. Earlier this year, late last year I discovered your channel and it was the best thing for me. I was very intimidated, and scared, to purse CS as a degree but I decided to commit to it and it was the best thing I did! I just completed my fall semester and it was great. Aced my CS lab and the course (python) and I gotta say I love python 😂 I’m gonna miss it when I do C++ next semester 😪 nonetheless, keep these videos up, please! I am considering starting a channel like this too for people like me who were scared or are scared to pursue it and you’re the inspiration for this idea. You should definitely make a playlist on making a legit app from ideation to deployment, that would be awesome! Anyhow, thank you for all the videos man and thank you for being an inspiration 🙏
Much appreciated, Tanner. I’m glad I could help! Creating an app on the channel was actually my plan for a while, but my off-time that I dedicate to my personal work is spent making videos. Once I free up some time from my full time job, then I’ll pursue my app a bit more.
Im subscribing for many reasons and that is what a channel has to do Im one of the notification gang.
Great stuff
i cant even listen to music while coding lol. grew up playing instruments so my brain will start decomposing what it hears instead of focusing on the task at hand.
Haha that’s a cool problem to have
@@fknight yeah man, can't complain.
I have the same issue. I get distracted by the music because I start paying attention to the intricacies of it. For that reason, coding in silence is usually the best solution for me.
@@jacobedsell8850 exactly lol, it gets to be too much going on at one time.
@@jacobedsell8850 For me it depends. I also get really focused on the intricacies of the music I'm listening to and I'm one of those guys that can't help it but sing along. Now, if I already know what I want to do I can just go with the flow and code while singing and giving a bit of focus to the music (I know this is not the best thing to do cuz I could possibly be making some mistakes that I'd be unaware of) but if I get stuck on a bug or suddenly lose track of my plan for that problem It's really hard for me to work on a solution while the music's playing. So 50/50 on the same boat as you
You are the best dude! Very useful tips!
Nice breakdown! Needed this. 🏆
Hey Forrest, there's one video I've always wanted to see you make and I'm almost certain you haven't done it yet. I would love to see a video where you go through your college transcript and talk about the CS classes you took, which ones were helpful, which ones you'd recommend or suggest staying away from. One problem I'm having right now is trying to decide what courses may be the most beneficial to me. I've already got my classes for the spring semester but I catch myself going back to them and thinking that they're almost useless to take, especially because some of them are considered to most as obsolete languages. Thoughts?
Hey man you make AWESOME and very helpful videos. I really enjoy your videos and Keep it UP man! Also Best of Luck for Future Challenges and Endeavours! Love your vids...
Much appreciated. You, too!
I thought that was pewdiepie
This is the real pewdiepie lol :P
th-cam.com/video/bpzPz0zIZQI/w-d-xo.html
Yeah... I can see it. But this guy is making videos to help others.
pewdiepie has his fan base send him memes to make pointless videos where he just over reacts to a picture.
Not trying to diss the #1 TH-camr, but I liked his old work better.
Jonny Law I don’t even watch pewdiepie lol I just know what he looks like
@@jonnylaw4569 I hate pewdie too especially his fanbase who use sarcasm as a facade to call others names.
@@blasttrash eh, I don't hate the guy, I'm just not a fan of his work the last few years
First as always! :)
Edit: Just actually finished watching the video and it's actually helpful. I can relate so much, I program in C# and VB personally and the speak to yourself before asking co-workers for help is so accurate. Exact same thing happens to me!
I appreciate the kind words, and the feedback!
@@fknight No problem man! Happy to see you're enjoying yourself. Can't wait until next video. I'll be waiting! :)
H4RRY i am a beginner trying to learn c# do you have any tips that you may help me better understand the language.i watch tutorials but i dont think it gonna help me as compared to doing actual projects
@@hamu.u I literally have an idea in my head, google one part of it, read the code, understood it, got another peice of code, and after time you get to understand the language pretty well. Heres a 200+ video playlist of C# tutorials that i use a lot and are pretty useful: th-cam.com/video/x_9lfHjYtVg/w-d-xo.html.Just make small projects, ask for help on certain peices and connect the puzzles. Keep making projects that slowly get more complex, and you'll learn quickly.
@@hamu.u I would also suggest TeamTreeHouse. They have 300+ courses, (about 10 C# courses) for only £20/m. I personally use it and that is helpful.
Thanks man i need to hear that
Right video for the right Time.... Very useful tips
Any good unix cli's to use on windows or should I just make the commitment and switch over to a distribution of Unix (and if so which? I've used fedora and ubuntu so far)
monday.com is a tool that I have considered using in the past. Awesome video!
My tip is time! It takes a lot of time to learn all about coding and developing so make sure you give yourself that
Very true
@@fknight Hi
Breaking things down to smaller tasks FTW 👍. Automated tests are a must 🤓
“Rubber Ducky Debugging “ and having a white board to write on and think something out and just walking around the office helps me.
Once I turned off all notifications from my e-mail, Slack, Trello and that kind of tools, I became so much more focussed. I even turned off all push messages on my phone, so I don't get distracted from that.
Your videos are really motivating, keep making them!!
What if you are a solo developer what tool is good for planning?
5:35 to 6:13
My favorite point, just love it
I am not the only one who think this way
Great video brother!
Put your coffeemaker beside your work table
This is the only tip that's needed. Thank you for this wisdom.
I find it quite hard to find veey focussing music. Any suggestions? Maybe make your own Spotify playlist?
Watching this while I'm at work!
Hey, get to work! 😂
Great Video!
Nice video...
Bro plz make a video about setting up vs code for c like langs
You need to get a compiler like "clang," and execute it through the terminal.
focus is one of the most underestimated one from my opinion: open space, meetings, meetings - everything to disturb you
I agree. I put headphones on even when I'm not listening to anything to deter people from interrupting me lol
You always seem to know the right things to say. :)
It's interesting subject. Pls, do more about it
Can you show any of the eclipse features?
I needed this video👌🏿I'm very unorganised, java is a pain do u know any apps or websites that can help to get better with java
I'm not sure your knowledge level, but I really like Exercism. Take the Java track and it should help. You'll also learn a lot of practical knowledge by creating small Java apps, like terminal apps or something. Either build one from scratch or follow a tutorial, then implement your own custom features. The real learning comes with problem solving and figuring out the solutions on your own.
@@fknight Thx man I'm a University student first year keep up the good work👌🏿
Appreciate it, you too!
Try "Java Programming Masterclass for Software Developers (Tim Buchalka)" on udemy.com. It costs about 10$, but it's definitely worth the money. You get about 80hours video lectures + lot of exercise. I am doing it myself.
I only clicked caus I thought this was meme review.
Jk 😂 been enjoying your videos lately gj keep it up. You're a big inspiration to me.
Thank You Very Much ForrestKnight
Can you make a video on remote work
What programming language are you working on at work?
Finishing off the year with a few angularjs projects and will be full on Java starting January
I was expecting Resharper as the first thing that would be mentioned.
Good vid
VS code for the win🔥
Dude, it seems like your eyes tired from the computer screen; I recommend you to try out Gunnar eyewear (for instance, I'm myself have Gunnar Steelseries onyx). Beleive me, it makes difference. I don't work for Gunnar, neither do I receive any payment for AD, just a good advice from programmer to another programmer: take care of your eyesight.
If you do try, keep in mind, that for fisrt couple days your eyes will be adjusting to glasses, and it will hurt a bit, but then... you'll see.
Awesome
5:55-6:02....Every damn time I ask some one for help
really like ur channel👌
really like ur comment👌
💯
Programmer that does film photography? I found my channel
Pomodoro Technique!
Text editor = atom, 2 peoples coding same time and same code just different areas :)
You look like that actor from 'Me before You'.
I find meetings to be the biggest distraction during the day.
Love this video honey 💜
Love this comment honey😉
Please! Please! Livestream on TH-cam...
But! But! What do I livestream... Q&A?
@@fknight Q&A's definitely.. You can also go for like building small projects for example you can code hangman again in like java or python... Do challenges kaggle, hackerearth etc... and lastly you can go for open source, you can take one repository and show how one must understand code, structure, read documentation etc. I think if you can do anyone single one it will be great livestream.
Edit -
i watched some coding livestreams and they are mostly about either teaching you something or coding a hobby project
That's impressive! I couldn't imagine livestream coding a project from scratch lol that is unless I coded the program before the stream and just repeated that same program on stream, but Q&As may be a potential avenue.
@@fknight If you are considering small projects.. you can start by very popular one in the whole youtube that is Snake game in 5 minutes xD
Always Open source !!
Why Nobody talks about NetBeans IDE ? I thinks its rly cool and so friendly, sorry for bad English,ofc java is primary language
Nice intro
Hi, I form Russia and I rally enjoy your video, you make good content it is cool because in youtube i always find some trash, continue make your video, thank u
I thought wars formed couturiers... I was mistaken then. Turns out it was you
Let's make Gloria borger add this man to the PewNews ! 9 year old army I call upon you!
Or you can do some hacking shit like giraffe and you will instantly become part of the crew!
my hair was like this :'(
brother are you also edit your video.?
Yea, I edit my videos.
@@fknight boss you are all in one. when i see your videos i really motivated. thanks brother💛
Much appreciated. Glad I can help!
I’m mad that I saw the thumb nail and thought pewdiepie grew out his hair lmao
that's an opsie dopsie
Rubber Duck Debugging:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_duck_debugging
I didn't know this was the term for it. Very cool.
mac os x vs Linux, pls
Whichever you prefer and fits your needs.
@@fknight can u please make a detailed vid about this
Maybe so. The problem being it's highly circumstantial. They're both good choices for development over Windows, though.
how to be more productive:
Remove youtube from your browser shortcut
Thanks pewdiepie
Oopsie Doopsie*
why most of software developer have lot of facial hair?
Haha no clue. I’ve always been the one with either a beard or long hair tho
ForrestKnight The look suits you.
So is this the other channel of pewdiepie to beat t series 😂
Yes, so make sure you subscribe 😉
@@fknight subscribed since 2k subs
You're awesome.
Low-key feel the intro is too long
Understandable.
you encouraged beginners who watch your videos not to use vim or emacs and now you talk about productivity
honestly I'm really disappointed because I used to enjoy your videos
personally, Spacemacs (Emacs "distribution" which includes vim keybindings) changed my life and I hope it will change others' too
Not sure if you watched the video but I even said that I use VIM for VS Code now and really like it.
hahah I just closed the video after I heard those things about vim/emacs
that's good but try out neovim
I mean in this video. In this video I said that I use VIM. Not in the other video haha it was folks like you in the comments of that other video who convinced me to give VIM another shot! I'm glad I did. And neovim? I'll look into it, thanks.
man I gotta say I'm sorry. I developed a negative attitude towards you and your content because I got offended like a kid. I'm glad you changed your mind about these tools. also if you use linux, check out tiling window managers
All good, man. I must say though, don't be sorry about the way you feel. It's only natural. I do run Linux on a VM and have heard of ratpoison and i3, if I recall correctly, but never took the time to look into them
Thanks pewdiepie.
THEY DID SURGERY ON A GRAPE
👏👏
stop watching youtube ...
