Yep, this is an absolute goldmine of usually hard-to-learn information!

This video is totally retarded. His intentions (making a vector class with a method that has return types dependent on the size of the vector) are misguided from the start. Maybe there is really no better way to do that in C++98/11/14 than his workarounds, but you just wouldn't do that anyway. Total C++ template hell. Not good advice for developers.

I love that Sirojology moves so fast. It's easier to pause and resume than trying to skip over irrelevant bits like is necessary with most tutorials.

+1 -- This is where I learned to code actually. He has some really nice -long- courses for quite a few languages. When I first started I went through his VB.NET videos -- it's 200 videos, and it starts with something as simple as variables, but by the end you're doing real projects like calculators and simple video games.

I love Bisqwit. The software development content is great, but also his overall personality and philosophy really come through in the videos and resonate with me personally. The level of craftsmanship in his videos is far beyond the typical powerpoint slides mixed with live editing. It would take paragraphs to list all the reasons why, just watch them.

Bisqwit is awesome. He's the also first person that I thought of when I saw the thread title. His videos are really in-depth technically and they're all interesting projects.

#29I'm going to use this opportunity to list some relatively unknown yet excellent software dev related channels that I've come across over the years. * Derek Banas ( https://www.youtube.com/user/derekbanas ): staggering amount of content on a huge variety of programming topics; tutorial-style; this guy is so productive it scares me sometimes :( * Mark Lewis ( https://www.youtube.com/user/DrMarkCLewis ): CS professor; l…
Derek has helped me more than once. He was instrumental in wrapping my head around design patterns (and combined with the gang-of-four's and head first I feel like I really learned).

#30https://www.youtube.com/user/handmadeheroarchive/featured https://handmadehero.org/ Coding a game engine from scratch, but don't think it's just about games. The techniques covered range from beginner to highly advanced and programmers in any field, at any skill level, can learn a lot. For example, check out the live editing/reloading for C code in Week 5. https://hero.handmade.network/episodes
I'm just going through this right now, and it's pretty amazing. I really like how he develops this prototype,
and just writes the code which actually solves the problem first, then breaks it up to try and reduce repetition only after he sees how it looks uncompressed.
