    Your video came at the perfect time for me since I've just been transferred to a new project that uses technologies I haven't learned before. Previously, I mainly focused on Java in my old project, but now I have to learn Ruby on Rails to work with the new team. I was unsure if learning something new was better than exploring my current stack, but after watching your video, I realize that I want to be an engineer, not just a Java developer. It's time for me to broaden my knowledge and take the opportunity to dive deeper into Java, my favorite language. Thank you again for your advice. It's truly motivating.

The framework I am using is Microprofile which too I havent used before.

    As someone who dropped out of CS undergrad and then ended up becoming a software developer years later without a degree, I can safely say that you're absolutely right about mastering the fundamentals. I'd add that when you're young and in college is the time to really struggle with & master the fundamentals. They're difficult, any remotely decent CS program in the states will teach you them, and you absolutely will need to learn them at some point (regardless of what other people might say or what you might convince yourself of). Everything through at least Data Structures/Analysis of Algorithms is actually necessary at some point if you want to really become useful. and it's much harder to go from Python to Java/C++ than the other way around.

    I really appreciate the video! It's really nice to have this kind of overview. But i have to ask something, because i feel like i'm getting something wrong. if i don't do all these things, especially the things you mentioned in the third section about problem solving - will i not be of value as a developer (to a company)? In other words: if i can't work with the entire companys tech stack, does that mean i'm not a useable developer? I'm currently preparing for my first round of interviews for internships, and i feel kinda intimidated by that thought. And i kinda wonder if i should change careers again, before i get in over my head. Anyway thanks for the videos, man! I learn insanely much from them.

    Not being picky about languages and tech stack is a good practice indeed. However that does not mean that the specialization of particular tech stack is not beneficial for software developers. So having a go-to preference for usage of particular tech stack is not a problem but rather developers should compare PoCs created using different tech stacks and comparing them on metrics that satisfy the user/ client requirements.

    About clean code, it's good to follow clean code, but when things are conflicting with your tools's/languages's idioms, prefer the idioms. I give an example in Clean Code it's said that prefer using exception instead of returning value, this is not the idiom/best practice in some languages. So take clean code with considerations.

    C++ is a great language to learn the fundamentals, but I think C is even better C++ is a very complex language that even language committee members will tell you they don't know all of it, and it's easy to find yourself in a bottomless pit of knowledge search without actually implementing anything (I've been there if you can't tell, lmao) C is a simple language without too much abstraction over the hardware model and without a crazy template library, so you can kinda see the bottom before you jump; and C code you may find around in open source projects, although it tends to reimplement data structures by hand all the time (and perhaps because of that, to some degree), also tends to be beautiful

    If you really need a job - take it but continue to learn what you've started. If not - continue your search for exact position that you are aiming for. Bear in mind, that new job will require your time to learn new things therefore your will have less time for something that is trully your are aiming for (your goal). Usually, I don't believe recruiters that tell me "one day in the future you can transfer yourselve to dev" they only want you to fill the position. Choose wisely, it is pretty hard to work and have time to properly learn things.

I agree that certain languages are better fit for a specific problem domain, but too simply state that there are problems out there that certain languages simply Python and Javascript cannot resolve seems wrong to me. Can someone please give me an example of this, a problem that can be solved in Java but not in Python or Javascript? And please don't say "speed".

    The first fundamental point is quite more of vague point. People will start to think Python is for noobs. In the real world, it's quite the opposite. CPP, Java, C#, Rust, C bla bla bla have their own region of application. So people over there, if you don't know which region your problem belongs to, just pass it. The moot problem-solving point of view that causes stemming the notion of being selective on language is not really worth it. Solving a problem is more like a logical game, devising your own path to a solution by stumbling over and over again and objectively it has nothing to do with what those aforementioned languages teach someone except you are really interested in language features. Do whatever makes sense. The filthy state will always alarm the inner you regardless of your current state as a learner. The best advice I have ever come across is not to take advice from anyone. Do not take my advice.
