Software engineers come from different backgrounds and can even be self taught, but why is that? Well.. If you want to become a software engineer, there’s not a lot that’s stopping you. Especially nowadays, there’s a lot of content, or even courses and companies, that’ll help you along the way.
And as more and more jobs (or parts of jobs) get automated, it might be help to learn about how that automation works in the first place. Just like how we learned to do a lot of math before using a calculator.

Very good content! I'm an ERP consultant and I'm looking for a programming language to start. This video helped me a lot.

Hmm, should everyone learn how to code? What're your thoughts? If you want to support the channel don't forget to like the vid and leave a little comment :)

Been in engineering / product development for 30 years. Aside from the rigors of engineering, I've taught and managed teams of engineers in this same environment. Gotta say that academic engineers I tend to avoid hiring as opposed to those who elevated themselves to the skill by their bootstraps.

Interesting! Why is that specifically?

@johntomasik1555 3 месяца назад

@@BeyondCoding Those with "real world" work experience (whether it's something like being a tradesman or even growing up on a ranch) contributes to the practical and efficiency of being an engineer. Those who tend to be steeped deep in academia often lack that. THey'll get wrapped up in theory or the understanding of what's "good enough", and especially undervalue proving their decisions with real world application (such as prototyping). I've worked with a lot of PhD's, and they're largely ineffective in that world.

So, I completed secondary school in 2019. I want to become a software engineer, so I did research on the industry and how to break through. Most people are saying you don't need a computer science degree to become a software engineer. Most content creators say you can self thought, attending a 6 months boot camp, bla bla bla .... . But when I research on the job market for software engineering , the minimum requirement is a bachelor degree in computer science. No one mentioned self thought or boot camp.

@BeyondCoding 11 месяцев назад

I think it's possible to do without a degree, but from a company perspective, if the educational requirement is met, there's less factors to consider. Most applications I've seen have an educational and a "or similar work experience") requirement

Hello, I am wondering What the opinion of anyone would be about the price of schooling for countries/ regimes that do not believe everyone should have schooling ( paid through taxes) ? I just started to watch this channel and I think this is great, although this video is 2 years old I am finding these conversations interesting and still involved with this society to this day, great video and subjects.

Thank you so much! One of my favourite things about the tech industry is that a lot of solid, quality content is available online, completely for free! Therefore, courses and other type of paid content will have to be excellent to differentiate itself, and in my experience, it's hard to find the content that does.
