I really needed this motivation to build something meaningful and put on my resume unlike common projects so that I can apply for internships in my sophomore year

@@namanhkapur thanks Naman please can you make videos on Leetcode cuz I heard this is a requirement to get an internship
Bro watching this made me so excited to go to a hackathon. I don’t know if it’s just they way you share your stories or what but damn does it seem fun. I’m definitely going to try to have as much fun as you this coming semester
Not a regular commenter, but bro, this video had me pumped! So much energy, inspiration, and passion! Loved the vibes, music choice👌, and editing. Informative with visuals, videos, real-life examples. Can't wait for more! 🙌🔥
The defbeats project is actually an amazing idea! Having to travel to a radioshack just adds to the charm! Awesome video!

Really cool and unique video. I do really want to take part in hackathons what tech stacks I should be familiar with to do so.
0:17: 🎮 The video is about the speaker's experience with hackathons and how they learned to create cool projects. 2:37: 📹 The video discusses the use of IBM Watson to analyze live video feeds and notify users of potential dangers. 5:14: 🔧 The speaker discusses their experience using AWS and Unity to create a Sandstorm effect for a virtual reality project. 7:59: 🏢 The speaker recommends taking coding courses and building projects within 24-48 hours to demo to judges at hackathons. 10:33: 🤣 Two roommates jokingly argue about their performance at a hackathon.

bro can you give the circuit diagram ot tutorial about the deafbeats?
What project I can do to help me get a job ? I just started learning
Hi Namanh, did you create any project/s on your own without hackathons? If yes, what were they?
Is it possible for someone like me who is majoring in a completely unrelated field to break into tech through uni related events like hackathons, classes, and meetups? I plan on minoring in CS and I’m currently self learning through the Odin project. I just know that if I switch to majoring in CS now I won’t be able to graduate on time which is why I’m in this position.

yes, I did it as a chem/bioeE major, you can def do it. If you really start enjoying SWE while you're a student I'd def try to land an internship before you graduate/consider doing a CS minor, or even adding a 5th year just to give an extra opportunity to apply for internships before you graduate. I pivoted into CS (self-studying) after graduating and landed a job so it's def possible! but its a lot easier without internship, but I know from friends who did similar pivots before graduating that it's way easier if you get an internship or two under your belt!

Bro this is really Motivating, But how did you learn to do all of this.
All I’m taking from this is, the wheel probably wasn’t the first wheel. Hope that makes sense 😂😂 keep it up 👍🏾

Python is a good programming language for beginners. I’d recommend starting with that and learning C++/Java afterwards

So you didn't create any projects?
You forgot what you made in Chicago? Even though it got you a job offer and you placed?? And you put it in the title of the video???
This is a decent video, what was the need to use the clickbaity title?
today i am gonna recycle the same video and just change it up a bit to keep getting youtube checks
Make videos applying Computer Science like nang channel does!! It would be great to see it :D
