- hbn 4y agoI've skimmed through some of his videos in the past to get a basic introduction to syntax and core concepts, but I can't help but think they're not very useful for much more than that. I'm not really sure what skill level his videos are targeting. He spends a long time on basic stuff like if statements - like do you really need to watch a guy type the classic age check if-else-if-else example for 3 minutes when anyone with basic programming experience could get the same information from just being shown a blurb of text doing an if statement? But then the more interesting stuff like goroutines and concurrency get about the same amount of time as if statements before moving onto something else. I feel like it doesn't really activate my brain at all. And especially for a language like Golang where there's a pretty good, comprehensive, official interactive tour[1], I don't know why you'd watch a guy type for 4 hours. https://go.dev/tour/welcome/1 https://go.dev/tour/welcome/1
- unixhero 4y agoI for one wildly apprechiate his content and language walkthroughs. I am an economist, and not a trained programmer so I don't have a strong intuition as a software engineer a has.
