Then your work at Netflix and the stories you occasionally shared was something that had me in awe.
    After watching your videos from the all your channels I know that you do some great work and pour your all into those videos, I 'm very happy that you will continue down this path and I wish you all the luck.

      @@ziga1122 If you can, find a partner. It should be someone you trust who fills in the gap in your knowledge. We have partners, but everybody is an engineer-it would have helped immensely to bring somebody in with business acumen. Search for and join any local town, city, or county business entrepreneurial program near you. If you can benefit from a strong internship program, so would the students at any higher education program-start it alongside your company as soon as you can. If you are successful, having both a path and the candidates to grow is great. Prior experience, skill, talent, education-it's all great and don't take it for granted, but also don't be afraid to look at your problems from a foundational perspective. We saved a ton of money by not being traditional with our agency-no offices, 4 day work week (8.5 a day), flexible schedules revolve around the jobs we're doing for our clients. You're going to make mistakes, but if your approach is disciplined you'll learn and adapt. Most people (other than those you meet online) are actually really helpful. Join some local business groups hopefully you have some in your area.

    First, I can't wait to see what you'll be doing.
    Two, thanks a lot to Pirate Software.
    Honestly, I've only started watching you less than a year ago, but you've changed my perspective on my side projects. I kept having projects I'd think were good but would never finish and projects I'd finish but weren't that great. You were the one who allowed me to actually push through and continue projects I'd lost interest in. Asperger really makes it pretty much impossible to work on something I'm not interested in, and thanks to you I found new ways to make things interesting. I found challenges where I only saw boredom, I found ways to make things harder to myself so they'd easily keep my motivation up. Every year for the past 14 years, ever since I was 8, I feel like I wasn't half the programmer I became the year before, and it's especially true of this year. I went out of my way to learn so much more about everything, to challenge myself to do insane things (building a compiler, a VM and a programming language without looking at tutorials or documentation), and so much more.
    So thank you from the bottom of my heart, and congratulations on this first step!

    Prime, I'm very happy for you and I wish you nothing but the best. I'm still fairly new on Software Development and just on my second job on the field, but you helped me so much that you have no idea. Even the little nuggets of wisdom you drop on your streams are pure gold and I hope I'll be able to meet you personally here in Brazil when you come here with Turso to thank you for everything you do.

    Congratulations on your decision, im sure it's gonna be one of the best you will make in your entire life, it takes lots of courage to do that and that's pretty rare nowadays, everyone just seems so comfy with themselves even though deep down they know they're really not.
    I was scared this was going to be the end of ThePrimeagen as influencer, and i can really feel in your voice how nervous you are with that decision, the only thing i can say is: take your time, don't rush anything and i am 100% sure you'll succeed.
    You inspire lots of people, me being one of them, and i can not express how thankful i am for that.
    Cheers from Brazil.

    What makes me respect you all that much more is your troubled past around excess drug use and still being able to take big chances like this. I'm scared to even get back into a tech role after melting my brain with drugs for years, never mind leaving a company like Netflix. Years of sobriety still haven't persuaded me to bet on myself and yet here you are, cool, confident and ready to run to your next venture. Good on ya, Prime. I truly hope you succeed!

      I know it's easy to say, but the sooner you bet on yourself the better. It's more likely than not that you'll not live out your life without ever taking a radical chance, and when you do you'll be angry with yourself that you haven't taken it sooner. It's in a way just delaying the inevitable and the consequences grow with every passing day.

    @aokijikuzan6453 2 місяці тому +26

    It's crazy because one of the things that I thought separated Prime from the rest of the influencers, was his presence at Netflix. I thought he was different because he was "in the field", like us, and delivering in prod, as he spoke to us, so his insight seemed more valuable to me. Compare that with other tech influencer that "were" in FAANG (or other), and get more and more detached of the reality of the job, as time goes on. These influencers tend to end up jumping trend to trend to stay relevant, and lose sight of company goals and job market.
    Anyways, wish him success.

      Netflix is made of engineers, the real difference with other influencers is that he was likely a central figure in Netflix, one of the OGs. He was Netflix more than he worked at Netflix, to some extent at least. He still is the same amazing engineer by the way.
