      ​@@derekbanas Hey, Derek. I really enjoyed this MakeCode Tutorial. Can you also make a tutorial, or a multipart series about Stencyl? It's an indie game development platform, very similar to MakeCode and Android App Inventor. Instead of writing the code, you just drag and drop the blocks. I think that it would be a good idea for a tutorial.

      I laugh when people say it is pointless to have a diverse knowledge base. My web development company was struggling. I met with a major distributor and the meeting was going badly. Then he said it is too bad you can't build security systems for cheap because his security company was charging him thousands a month. I said I can make you a system that you can monitor from your mobile phone for under $80 a camera. He then said it is too bad you don't know how to fix our CSM software, which was written using Visual Basic and Access, because nobody programs in that anymore. I took both jobs and made him so happy that I got his online stores. They made him his money back in a month and he told all his rich friends about me and my business was set.
      All of that happened because I knew how to program Arduinos and Visual Basic. Being nice to a Jehovah Witness was also part of the equation, but this story is long enough :)

    Wow Derek, you are amazing. How do you learn all this stuff? I wish I could learn as effective as you do. Do you learn over courses or books?

    • @derekbanas
      @derekbanas  Před 3 lety +1

      Thank you, but I'm nothing special. I have been working with electronics for a long time, so that helped when learning about MakeCode. I mainly learn by looking at examples that other people created and then I mess around and experiment to find my own solutions.
      If I'm learning something completely foreign to me I learn a little bit constantly through out the day. For example I'm trying to learn how to play chess well right now. For some reason people that are good at something normally are terrible at explaining why. I spend a lot of my time trying to figure out what core subjects I must learn. For chess I finally realized that learning the end game is the most important thing. I never read that any place, but it became logical.
      Why is that? Well if you know all of the locations you have to be in to win, you then know which pieces to move where and what to protect. Now that I know what to study I focus on repetition learning. I use Anki a lot to do this. It is basically intelligent flashcards.
      Our brains have to be convinced that knowledge is important to store that knowledge. So if I'm learning anything new I constantly study it. So when I have 5 minutes here and there through out the day I look at my flashcards and review. After constantly doing this my brain says Hey He Thinks this is Important!!! Then my brain gets very good at learning that subject.

    Hello sir Derek. Because of this video, I got inspired to learn about logic boards.
    To be honest, I don't know where to start. My goal is to be able to understand logic boards of electronics such as flash drives, TVs, laptops, etc.
    Can you give me some advice of where I should start? Should I go and learn arduino first? Or physics first?
    Thank you

    • @derekbanas
      @derekbanas  Před 3 lety

      That is great! I used to use Arduino for everything, but I changed over to CircuitPython and I have not looked back. You don't need to know physics to understand this stuff. It is much better to make a lot of different things. You'll learn way more by thinking of a project and then learning how to make it work than you'll learn from any single book. I hope to upload a CircuitPython tutorial in the next few days. I'd recommend a Circuit Playground Bluefruit to get started. There are tons of add-on boards that you can use to create just about anything. After you master it, then I'd look into a Raspberry Pi, but I wouldn't start with a RPi. A CPB or CPX is a way more fun board that will teach you way more than if you jumped right into a RPi. MakeCode is also a great way to get started. If you know MakeCode transitioning to CircuitPython will be much easier.
