You know, I learned html first time ever with you couple years ago ans I loved your channel since. You introduced me to this amazing journey. Thank you man 🤓
I enjoyed every second of watching this video. Thank you Eli for sharing your thoughts with newbies like me. I finished Law school, but 10 years later I realized that I made a huge mistake. Please keep up with posting your classes. COVID quarantine is much better watching your channel. It's obvious that you are passionate with IT and that's all that matters.
This has been a huge help for me. I am in the Human Resources world and was trying to cross over into IT but found HRIS instead. While I got a view into how to maintain HR databases i cannot move my career forward without knowing the backend of how to maintain these databases. Thanks for this introduction and I look forward to learning more from your channel as i navigate my career shift. :)
That was a great break down. I just randomly wandered on here from a Google search about coding. I want to learn how to code to write simple apps for m.r /v.r games. But I had no idea coding was in itself a job!(kinda ancient) It sounds amazing. Being given a creative task and left to get on with it would be my dream job 😉. Think I'll look into coding a bit more. Who knows what the possibilities might be.
27:00 oooh, that's what you are supposed to do there... Funny thing, I just got booted from my master's course after getting a bachelor's degree without doing anything mentioned around the timestamp while I was there. I guess I should have chosen a less demanding uni and focus more on the job side of things... Anyway thank you for throwing knowledge at people like that.
Man ive been watching you for about 7 years now. Glad to see you're making content again. Any advice on how to start without school ? I wasted , well not wasted but spent 4 years in community college working on general Ed , didn't reach programming courses , then they go on and take off the pre requisites for programming classes . Just a mess without direction. Just wanna start working in IT already ... Instead of being a delivery guy .
yes, i am going to school for networking. the coursework is outdated, 5 years was the most recent, besides my Cisco classes. but it is good for the basics, it did end up making more questions than answers. I got a job, and I am not even allowed to touch the servers 5 months in, im a liability... makes sense, but schools dont tell you this
But how to decide what to do? like networking, information security, programming, data analysis, software testing, penetration testing, etc. So I actually studied computer science but I still can't focus on one thing, can you please talk about that?
Great videos. If you sell the hardware you talk about, watchers get to try out what they've learned about and come back to your videos for a hands on tutorial, and fund your video making in the process.
Love your teachings! Will you or can you teach how to create a software package. At my job there’s this IT manager who wrote in command line how to wipe a computer and install new software that he bundled together in a zip folder. Now employees can download link and it will run and automatically install all required software to their computer. I thought that was awesome to witness.
So all that time I was trying to break into tech, but couldn't because I didn't have any professional experience in tech, you're saying that instead of talking about all my non-tech professional experience, I should have been talking about all the piddling crap technical stuff I was doing in my spare time? Farting around with Linux, building an automatic sprinkler controller in Arduino, writing batch files to make useless Ubuntu connect to a VPN instead of entering lines of code in a terminal each time. That should have been on my resume??? Wow. I really don't get it sometimes.
Eli! When are you going to make a patreon? I know that you have a site but I feel like patreon would definitely help you out more. Content should be trimmed or cut into more videos but overall your content is great.
Career advice needed more than basic tutorials I think, career and lifestyle channels doing well.. I am considering redoing my unfinished data analytics masters this year.. I'm living with my parents at 28 and it's a pain. I'm a musician also, but I left music college to get my tech degree six years ago, got my degree but have mostly been figuring out life and politics since and went from a communist to a Jordan Peterson style classical liberal.. I'd like to do a lot of things, I know a lot of tradespeople involved with music festivals and that interests me, but I keep getting the feeling I should finish the analytics before getting into anything else, perhaps I could use it in the music industry, corporate jobs sound awful, I would start a TH-cam channel discussing politics like Sargon but I need life experience and a channel could take years and I know how unpredictable it is as a source of income from watching your and others vids on it. Anyway long term viewer here been watching about 8 years. Enjoyed all the Failed Normal videos following your travels and you talking about life and "as a tech professional" videos, have learned a lot from you.. If you want my two cents I'd say get into something tradelike yourself and make a channel more about that, something like Codyslab, I think you should work on a new direction outside of TH-cam and then show it off on TH-cam as a side thing, you have done search and rescue and electronics and home renovation.. I think they're all a lot more interesting than basic coding and stuff.. your most interesting stuff is your hobbies, experiences and personality and you should build on that and try new things in your life and then bring that back here with new content. Scooby the bodybuilder is changing his channel to a travel channel for example. You're still a young guy I think it's a waste to be making these basic tutorials again and such. I much more enjoyed you talking about your fish!!! Smarter every day is another huge channel that's doing extremely well. Something like that. Cheers Eli, Brian from Ireland
The more recent MySQL content has been good from what I've skimmed of it, and I expect you're going down the route of software development and programming tutorials now, which I'll undoubtedly recommend to people seeking it; but I'm interested to know whether you plan on making any more sysadmin-specific content (e.g. networking, cybersecurity, hardening systems, monitoring and maintenance, physical stuff like cabling) like you used to, just because that's what I'm personally here for.
Hi Eli please say a solution. My Lenovo IdeaPad touchpad is not working I tried kernal changing etc.. but it working in windows10 not working in linux I tried ubuntu Debian etc. Please help me
Back in the days of mail order shareware on floppies and shady BBSs, I was forced to learn some programming. I couldn't get an old Tandy or Commodore machine to do much of anything I wanted, otherwise. Now, it's been so long since done it, i can barely code a blood glucose meter. ;`)
Had a question. If your phone gets like a tv fuzz. And boxes start replicating on the screen when you enter a website. You get a remote signal message on your phone 1 time has it been hacked? I got a brand new phone from Wal-Mart and another did the same thing. No remote error message. But same fuzz. After changing all my passwords. A person I know. Is close to ez DoD employees. And even people that got In Trouble for hacking the Pentagon. Is it possible. At one point I was told the words I searched on my smart television right after doing it. I thought only the NSA had tech like the sledgehammer briefcase.that can cause such interference.
it just truth and it take balls to speak the Truth ... IT world is not just "cool world " it's a " DOING world " it ... and there are soooo much errors coming to your face , welcome to IT guys . XD
I love Swift because of its great syntax and the amount of things included in the Foundation library. I found Swift Vapor which is a full stack web framework. I make all my sites in vapor. vapor.codes Also, swift is available in the AUR and on swift.org for Ubuntu or Docker images for other systems
You are a great talker... and for that reason you TALK TOO MUCH. I love detail too but after 3 videos I wanted more specifics... got tired of waiting. I will be back though, I think...
You know, I learned html first time ever with you couple years ago ans I loved your channel since. You introduced me to this amazing journey. Thank you man 🤓
Our old Jason! Simple but nice explanation Eli! Big fan of you man for long time!
I am just starting my BS in Mechatronics and then I found these videos !! So excited!

Great stuff as always, Eli. You are one of the original Tech Avengers of TH-cam. I'm feel lucky to have stumbled your videos a few years back.
Thanks Eli, very well-rounded and realistic, as usual. Thanks for really wanting to help interested people save themselves some heartache.
Thanks for the precious time you spend to such a valuable speech.

WOW!! From the depths of the internet . . . Eli Returns!!
wow....he is making videos on computers since 2010. hats off to you
27:00 oooh, that's what you are supposed to do there...

I guess I should have chosen a less demanding uni and focus more on the job side of things... Anyway thank you for throwing knowledge at people like that.
Thank God i found your channel while booting up for this journey.
Thanks, Eli! Great overview of the field itself and some very useful tips for those who are only starting out. Much appreciated!
I wish to see many more videos from this channel. It brings me to TH-cam as a learning resource.
Man ive been watching you for about 7 years now. Glad to see you're making content again. Any advice on how to start without school ? I wasted , well not wasted but spent 4 years in community college working on general Ed , didn't reach programming courses , then they go on and take off the pre requisites for programming classes .

Good to see you're still going Eli.
Thank you Eli, such a great guy helping out here! I promise to send you some bucks out of my first coding earnings.
Will you teach Clinton The Cat how to code? You owe him...
Thank You Eli! Great information about what really matters in becoming a professional developer.
Eli is back.. Good to see
yes, i am going to school for networking. the coursework is outdated, 5 years was the most recent, besides my Cisco classes. but it is good for the basics, it did end up making more questions than answers. I got a job, and I am not even allowed to touch the servers 5 months in, im a liability... makes sense, but schools dont tell you this
The sweatshirt is back!
Very valuable tips and real stories from technology life.
Can we buy ETCG orange sweaters to support the channel? PS I leaned HTML and server admin from you many years ago. Glad to see the old channel back!
But how to decide what to do? like networking, information security, programming, data analysis, software testing, penetration testing, etc. So I actually studied computer science but I still can't focus on one thing, can you please talk about that?
Such practical advice. Thanks Eli!
Thank you for making new training classes!!
Great videos.
If you sell the hardware you talk about, watchers get to try out what they've learned about and come back to your videos for a hands on tutorial, and fund your video making in the process.
Noob: "I wanna do computers"
What I hear: "Donatello does machines"
Lol the thumbnail made me think "Programming for Convicts" xD
I liked the videos filmed in front of pond, feeding the koi fishes and also from the roof of apartment building in Seattle!
You know Eli is serious when he brings out the retro shirt design
Love your teachings! Will you or can you teach how to create a software package. At my job there’s this IT manager who wrote in command line how to wipe a computer and install new software that he bundled together in a zip folder. Now employees can download link and it will run and automatically install all required software to their computer. I thought that was awesome to witness.
We live in difficult times and need money to do some things. Hope programming will prove useful cuz i just sit around not doing much
You're growing on me quickly.
Eli is still as funny as ever!!
Thank you for the information!!!!!
Thanks for sharing 🌺
You are great Eli😚😚😚
Hey I like your videos Eli, I’m going to use the words such as positive, brilliant, and intriguing suggestions. It might boost your recommendations!
Where the hell were you when I was in my engineering?
So all that time I was trying to break into tech, but couldn't because I didn't have any professional experience in tech, you're saying that instead of talking about all my non-tech professional experience, I should have been talking about all the piddling crap technical stuff I was doing in my spare time?

Eli you are the i am doing my I.T
😀😀😀😀
Let’s get this man 1 mil sub
Thanks a million!
What's with the orange sweatshirt? I thought I was on the California CalTrans website...LOL 😄
Eli! When are you going to make a patreon?
I know that you have a site but I feel like patreon would definitely help you out more.
Content should be trimmed or cut into more videos but overall your content is great.
thank you very much
Thanks for the tip about College.
Great video man!
Hi Eli, thanks
Since you talked about quality of software. Can you please a video on quality of software and API too - thanks
Great video, Eli! Bringing out the old orange sweater I see. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
In other words, acquaint oneself with the subject of software architectures as applied in technologies. Learn to read & write code.
Wow...
So, is it about Python or scripting?...
Thanks dude
great video!
Great post

Coach Red Pill had the same thing and started a new channel to try and get around it,
thank you

My way was just join the military. When youre thrown to the fire and forced to figure it out youll learn fast
it just truth and it take balls to speak the Truth ... IT world is not just "cool world " it's a " DOING world " it ... and there are soooo much errors coming to your face , welcome to IT guys . XD

You need to teach hacking. I know that you want it.
You are a great talker... and for that reason you TALK TOO MUCH. I love detail too but after 3 videos I wanted more specifics... got tired of waiting. I will be back though, I think...
LMAO, The crap that should not be called code xD hahaha
Something witty!!!!!
