    I learned programming on C and C++ and I got to say they're pretty great to begin with to fundamentally understand the flow of the software and memory menagment. It's like learning to swim by jumping directly in to deep waters. If you learn to code functional, stable apps in those language I think you're ready to go.

      Yes, my university also still does this approach. You start only with c until you can make simple terminal based programs, using pointers and structs. Then we go to java for OO languages, and apply everything we learn on it (handmade sorting algorithms and data structures) on c later. At this point you can use both languages with or without objects, learn memory management and all the basics of programming, and also learn to evaluate efficient algorithms, so you could technically go anywhere from there.
      Imo this route is the most begginer friendly because you really learn how to code rather than depend on specific languages libraries or built in functionalities

      And the rust package manager and test framework are simply the best out there. Super robust and easy to use.
      I had rust building and deploying in CI/CD pipeline in less than 30 minutes. And that includes actually installing rust on whatever build agent (Linux, windows and macOS) and it all worked with one line of code.

    In my university, the first programming language they teach us is C, followed by C++ and then moving on to assigning us projects (e.g. Artificial Intelligence, if you choose to take this subject later on) requiring knowledge of Python without actually spending time to teach us this language at that point. C is a very good beginner language because, like it was stated in the video, it's the language without which, a lot of the "big" ones in the industry now wouldn't exist.
    Edit: They also teach us Assembly in the 1st year for the mandatory subject "Computer Architecture I" which as you can imagine is a pain in the ass...

    To anyone trying to learn programming from the beginning, my best advice is to just pick a language that you like at first glance. Stop stressing over what language you need to start with, because the most important skill of all is to begin to think like a programmer. You will never have as much of a challenge learning a language as you do your first one. And no specific language is going to make it that much easier because you are training your brain to think in a way that is fairly alien to the way most of us go about our day to day lives. But once it *clicks* and you begin to think like a programmer, you can pick up and become functional in another language in a week or sometimes even just a weekend. You just need to first get used to breaking problems down and solving them with basic yes/no questions and then you are on your way

But my brain also just seems wired for object oriented coding so not having classes and inheritance hurts, and being forced to think at a hardware level is not fun.

      I still write half my code in nano. IDEs tend to just get in the way. I don't want to monkey around for hours trying to get the IDE to see my project dependencies properly. I just write the compiler line myself and its done. Sometimes I do like to have the syntax highlighting, etc... though, so editors like Sublime are nice. Some IDEs also like to fuck with your code if you don't change the default options. Almost failed one of my earliest programming assignments because Visual Studio compiled my code with a dependency on a Microsoft redistributable (which of course wasn't there on the Linux grading server). My jaw hit the floor and I was like, "So how am I supposed to compile and submit my code!??!" to the TA, because some of them had recommended Visual Studio. I did manage to find the option and get to compile without needing that dependency, but it was just such an incredibly stupid default that that day I went to writing my code on Linux and never went back.

      One thing is for sure though, usage of Cobol is declining, and will continue to decline, because it's a terrible language and no one in their right mind is using it for new projects. So even if all we do is educate enough people to maintain a constant supply of Cobol engineers, it's a career that's doomed for a decline in salary since the demand will always be declining. It's only a smart career choice if the decline in supply outpaces the decline in demand, which is a risky bet, since a lot of financial systems are being rewritten from scratch.

    I've been programming proffessionally in Silicon Valley for the last 5 years, & I can say this checks out. Most everything I do has been in Python and Javascript (+HTML/CSS), and sometimes Java. After running into the limitations of OOP/dynamic types, I started exploring functional languages & approaches and other statically typed languages. One note is that my undergraduate studies actually had us explore this iceberg in a u-shape: top, lower, then back to top again.

      Interesting. I'm learning programming by my own since 1995 but still I cannot figure out everything. The most important thing in programming are the concepts which no one cover. It annoy the hell out me.
      You need to understand plenty of stuff how OS works so you cannot program, so with python I could start pretty much doing stuff and fetching data as example.
      I also start to learn C, very easy, but no one gives intel for what the use of C is. Is it for machine only or you can do a browser with it? Is it convenient to use functional language to develop apps or is it a BIG no NO! Because I don't want to learn a whole language so in the end I discovered I made a huge mistake!

I remember after my first few weeks of learning C++ (also my first programming experience) I asked a forum "what more can I do with this? Is it useless? I don't see how it is possible to make a game with it!" It was just my lack of knowledge of programming in general, and now it is more or less intuitive on what each language is for. If you dive in and actually make a program all those questions will show their answers... just make something!

    7:25 C still the perfect language for embedded devices. Still millions of lines of code written in C by firmware engineers for the foundation of every IoT device and microprocessor based system (basically every device we have today). So I think embedded C should be nearly at the bottom of the iceberg, because to be able to write a peripheral driver for a 32 bit uC system from only the datasheet of the given uC, the engineer has to be familiar with the assembly and machine code of the given uC.

      Not to mention entire hardware architectures are designed and optimized to run C programs. Writing assembly is cool for simple 8 bit microcontrollers but once you reach higher complexity it's about C and using manufacturers drivers. Nowadays we are moving higher up towards Micropython, like for Raspberry Pico, which is fine for simple, slower undemanding stuff. For the rest you need C code.

    I remember when I started coding in Python I struggled real hard. Not only with the thinking process but with the fact that the language takes a lot of stuff for granted that I didn't. I started with Pascal in school and wondered that I didn't need to declare variables, had no idea what variable type I had each time - I thought in a way too complicated for the language. Still my problem.
    I often say I do quantum computing because I am too stupid to understand how normal computers work. With understand I mean understand each level and layer. Modern computers are way too complex.
    A good friend once told me that he sucks at coding as well. He is one of the best hackers in my home country and suffers from the same issues I do.

    Man, things are so different these days, although you have certainly hit upon a few of the key points I've watched over the years. I discovered BASIC in a geometry textbook appendix when I was in tenth grade. I whined until I got a VIC-20 and learned BASIC and 6502 ML. That was more than enough for my first programming job in the '80s.
    But the next step was going to have to be either Pascal or C, both of which were supported by those amazing new IDEs Borland introduced. I physically went to a physical bookstore and purchased Turbo C. I made a living in the corporate world with C for about eight years, adding SQL and shell scripting along the way.
    Then came Visual Basic for a few years I'd rather not think too hard about, then Java. That one lasted me a very long time. It was introduced to me by an IBM consultant who was excited about their new "Visual Age" IDE. Youngsters will know it as Eclipse. I knew it as a properly object oriented language with a never ending series of new libraries and techniques. EJB 1.0 anyone? None for me, thanks, my brain is full. I admit it: It took me too long to absorb functional programming because it became so easy to do so much with OOP, and I had to support pre-8 Java versions for a long time anyway.
    These days I use JavaScript a lot, which is probably why I'm awake right now typing comments on CZcams at 4 AM. I work with a team that really only knows JS frameworks, so I adapt. But man, the lack of native type safety feels so weird.
    The next big thing for programmers should probably be Rust. I'm learning it myself because if my portfolio collapses I'll be working for a few more decades. Besides, for a real developer, the learning is the real reward.
