“1400 why should I learn how to read “ “2028 why should I learn how to program “ This’s the most convincing for the reason to learn programming ever !

He basically described what computational thinking is. I like that he said not to become a computer programmer and to take coding and apply it to your job. If I get good at coding, I'll figure out how to apply it to my kitchen cleaning job

Sorry guys I might have disabled all kinds of notifications so I didn't get your questions. I got a job as a Front-End Developer at a small Software Development company. Since the company was small I had to do all kinds of Design related stuff from Design Logos + Branding to Wireframing and UI design in Photoshop/XD along with usual Front-End Coding. 2nd year on the Job I was essentially leading the Design Team. But Due to too much workload and very little salary and potential for growth I decided to quit the job and never to work in small companies. I am currently doing freelancing and now to get some stability, I have decided to master UX Design and get a job at a big company where they know how to keep theit employees happy. I'm sure my experience and knowledge of Graphic Design and Front-End Development will give me an edge as a UX Designer.

He speaks REALLY well. Damn. I guess I'll go ahead and take that public speaking class.

AI will replace programmer in future

When some of my friends became addicted to videogames it seemed apparent to me that there are two sides to a computer; the people who made money from computers, and the people that spent money on computers, one way or another. I wanted to be one of the people that made money or profited in some way or other from my computer. So I taught myself beginners all-purpose symbolic instruction code language. Basic was too slow for the graphics that I wanted to do on my Commodore 64 (8-bit) computer. So I typed in the assembler and went to work on learning 'machine' language. I remember feeling elated the day I found out I could print the letter A so fast it filled up the screen almost instantly. I can't say I've made money from computers since I've never really tried to. But I can't measure the amount of fun and confidence that I've gained throughout the years.

I like at 3:39 “I should learn to program” and when he giggles, he wasn’t expecting that everyone would repeat with him. 😄 awesome video btw

Great Public Speaker. Thanks for the motivation.

Now this is what gives me motivation and inspiration to becoming a programmer!

Yeah!... I love programming :) It's a mix of creativity, art and technology...

I literally got into programming only last week, and I realised that if I learn C#, it could help me manipulate computers to make jobs easier. To think that we waste so much power on apps like flappy bird when we could be solving unimaginable problems. Plus, it would make me feel smarter and I would get to work with Unity. Bonus.

@kagoTshabota

+Niceguy3210 , I think flappy bird isn't really a waste of time. It can serve as a parthway of a practice to see how to solve small programming tasks so that the next time you program you are a more experienced problem solver. It's just baby steps, not the amount of coding involved, but the process of coding.

Thank you
