It is so useful to watch these videos after finishing a chapter to cement what I have read.
Thanks!

[@kunpeng2240]

Thank you! Prof Kurose! You course helps me a lot!

[@xecreth7211]

You mentioned picking up other books if we had interest in the physical side in more depth, do you have any recomendations by chance?

[@kunpeng2240]

Thanks for spreading valuable knowledge online!

why this lecture is not listed publicly?

[@JimKurose]

Hi Vivian. I'm making the whole series public now. I wanted to "soft launch" them and see if people found them useful before publicly listing them. Jim

[@sumitprajapati821]

@@JimKurose Your book is amazing. I was reading it and then found these videos which actually summarises very well of what's written in the book.
Thank You for both

that music!

[@easthastings6919]

I'm 28 yo. just got into programming and networking. feels like i've found what i've been searching for all my life. but sadly i don't have appropriate background. am I too old to start getting into it?

[@ericpratt9509]

no

[@piyush6631]

Not at all! I'm 26 and doing a master's degree but I'm aware of individuals who are pursuing computer science even in their high 30s. 28 is not a bad age to start. Good luck with the learning :)

[@aaroncastro910]

I am 50, and I just started last semester a Master Degree in EE. Then, never is late!!!

[@omarmohamedel-amirshaalan7846]

no you are not, actually it is the perfect time to start as this field is booming, learn a data structure language (C++,Java) and that is the start, go from that to flutter, and reactJS, then go to mongoDB, and finally the APIs (backend)

[@wibulord926]

yeah too old no company will hire you

[@dalatesthits3849]

Pause.
