My Gear ⚙️: kit.co/JoshuaFluke
Let me clarify, we all nail nails in something in life and there's nothing wrong with that, that's not what I was saying. I personally just do not get joy from that part with coding. I get joy from other things in regards to doing things just for the sake of doing it. Like working out, getting better at flying paragliders, editing videos, cooking. But when it comes to code specifically, that's not the part that gets me..I'm big picture. And if you are the person who loves code to code, more power to you. Different people different interests, it's all good..But hopefully this video explains why i don't showcase tutorials and stuff very often.
Was super excited you were about to jump on one of your bikes and take us for a ride! :p
I'm a mixed bag. I like both
A UA-camr will be Président soon. Fluke 2024
I think tech lead had a video about the fact that there are 2 kinds of coders. One - the nerdy coder who likes to tinker with the code and enjoys it as it is, the other one - biz coder who has a product in mind and uses his coding skills to make it happen.
then tell us how to break out of this working-circle...
i like your stuff/content, because it is rare , that people show the real intentions of the "bosses" and CEO's and the really nasty type of manipulation, how they mindwash you, to work and work and work and forget about yourself and you life, but josh, the most of the people have to fucking pay their bills... so how to break out of this ?
finde somebody with ideas and code for him ?
find coding buddies and make a fucking good app everybody wants ?
You figured out in your 20's what most people don't figure out well into their 40's and 50's, saddled with regret. This is the healthiest attitude towards work one can have.
Lol making less than 6 figures drinking a beer cuz fucking u can do whatever u want in your townhouse.. your trippen dude...
@@grimendancehall If your income is never the bottleneck in living your life, then why even chase after more money than you're comfortable in spending?
@@VivekYadav-ds8oz not chasing the money. I'm just not settling because it's easier to. I work 45 hour weeks and come home and learn how to code SQL and C# so I can build a comprehensive Enterprise Management System for the company I started as just a drafter at... also starting my own steel drafting/detailing company hopefully this summer.... I don't outright expect to make a shit load of money. But when I do... and some douchebag comes along and says that i wasted my life.... like I literally love what I do. I just don't fuck with that small scale mentality. Just do a bit here a bit there then drink a beer relax and u won't have a really hard time. I don't want that. I want what Josh thinks he's getting by avoiding work. Making work not hectic and owning the work, as well as loving it. Literally cheating the system. No longer work because what I do isn't work as a job I can quit anytime but I love to do it, partially because I'm so good at it. I could go on for ages but I gotta finish tiling my bathroom floor been slacking for months cuz im working too much. But I'm sure Josh has a million times better day to day experience than me xuz he doesn't have a 'job'
@@grimendancehall jos kung fu must be weak?
@@grimendancehall assuming you're not bullshitting, and I do believe that you are 100% bullshitting lol; you would fail with that sort of dumbass plan. It's not possible to work full time and starting two separate companies that's have nothing to do with each other.
How can you have a garage, and not a Lamborghini and 2000 books in the Hollywood hills ? This raises red flags.

I'm considering getting this UA-cam Premium because the ad anxiety builds up with every video I watch.
I once told to an agent that after 8 hours of coding, the last thing I want to do outside of work is to code more. She replied 'well, you shouldn't say that'.
ARE YOU SAYING YOUR WORK ISNT YOUR LIFE
@@JoshuaFluke1 yes exactly with all due respect ... I like doing other things in life as well .... please don't tell my boss ! ^^'
Fortunately I work at a company where the lead dev literally told me that on the first day, although phrased differently. If you output good code and solve problems that should be enough. It doesn't have to be your life/identity. If a carpenter were to tell you he spends all his free time hammering in more nails, you'd think he's insane. It's just a job not a way of life.
Nota, you need more passion! Everyone knows that people that don't work outside of work are trash employees! You need some Ice Cream and Pizza, to get that boost, but we can't give you those until you work 20 years in our company.
I'll say it: it's because offshore developers have cultivated this mindset and American developers are SUPPOSED TO BE THE SAME WAY. You're supposed to PASSIONATE about coding. WTF!?!?!? This is why you have pedophiles, creepers and psychopaths, man. Their intimate sexual experiences are just a warm puddle on the floor in front of their computer....LOL!!!!

Exactly, this is how you are supposed to learn, you learn because of whatever you want to develop, totally agree with you, I'm not excited about code but about what I can create with code.
Once upon a time I thought I wanted to make video games until I found out what the life is really like.
Every teenager ever.
You can make video games as a hobby or indie but I heard cooperate world is rlly bad
That was me over 13 years ago haha @joshuafluke
@unclerandy yeah I've heard nightmares about corporate jobs in making video games. I've tried to make them myself but got kind of bored. I'll make one over the long term I'm sure.
I still make video games, life is more expensive for the poor lol (cannot afford a house and motorbike)
Exactly, Josh. This is THEE reason why I had trouble with mathematics in school because the teachers didn't really explain mathematics concepts or where/how to apply it! I didn't get excited about math until I went to college!!! Once the professors explained the logic behind Math beyond Geometry..it just CLICKED for me!
I wish I was smart at math so I could become that math teacher that doesn't teach math but instead let students have fun playing games where math is just part of the game.
Now I teach "creative tech" where we make 3D models and 3D print them, there's math involved but the point is to create something where math is just part of the process.
"No amount of money has ever bought a second of time" -Howard Stark
Yes it has every day.
I mean sure, no money can buy time itself. But you can purchase things that can extend the time you will live to experience. Medicine and surgery.
Kind of...it's not about having an income working everyday. It's about creating a cash flow, passive income. That's how you buy time and freedom.
You die faster without money so that's not completely true
Wow, you guys really didn't see End game I guess to understand the context of the quote, it isn't about "buying future" time. It is about not being able to get back time you used in the past, not spending the time to bond with your friend, or mom, or dad, after they passed away for instance (In Tony/Howard starks case), or not being able to do that once in a life time thing you missed out on because you cannot buy that time back. The quote specifically means do not waste your every day life being absorbed with your career or you may regret or missing the important things in life.
Passions change, the important thing is that you continue to follow them
Beautiful bro
Wow!

Ah man..as a cs student, this really takes the weight off my shoulders..

I was too but then switched to aero e
I relate to this video on a spiritual level, and the fact that you (wayyyyyyyyyyyyy ahead of me on my coding journey,) voiced this sort of thought gives me some sense of relief man.
It gets worse the more senior you get. It's the same problems and just typing. I have to change hobbies alot. Vehicles are ok, but careful sometimes you realize buying stuff is hiding deep emotional issues. You get the dopamine rush from the temporary purchase.
Buying stuff is buying a maintenance burden. You will get one more thing to waste time and money on.
I am a Java guy since my college years. And i work with that languange too now. Many of my friends said " Java is old and dead , you should use JS " . I never bothered to argue. Because I don't give a shit. Honestly i will code everything that will pay my bills, and bring food to my table. If Java do that, Then I code Java, if PHP then PHP , even if is AWK the i will do it too. Coding for me is just a Job and Programming languange a tool to get that job done. It not my entire live. I don't need to think about that shits 24 hours a day lol
So from what you said it sound like you do not really enjoy your job, would it not be better to have work you actually enjoy doing? Youll have a hobby and work in one. If you like brewing the best coffee, or designing gardens, do that and be the f**in best at it. Right? Or am I the one wrong? I enjoy and love most parts of freelance software engineering and the freedom it gives me to see the world with my family. I for example find all means of transportation as a tool.
@@kamil4151 I do enjoy my job. What i mean is, i enjoy programming and developing software , But i would not "die" for it either. It just a job. A source of income. That's why i never defend Java at the silly "What is the best Programming languange/framework war " That's like to happen in discord/real life. I am not spending all my 24 hours thinking about coding or projects or courses or forums etc.
because like what Josh said, "some people have other interest" even they are do a coding/programming things. It doesn't need to be their entire life.
And if you said , u really enjoy it so much , and love it. And i guess probably love it more than me, Then, thats good for you.
@@jeremiahhasudungansihombin1882 I respect that. I myself do not engage either when kids argue about what lang or framework is the best because they will realise it's meaningless later on, but that is not what Josh was talking about (I guess). But sharpening your skills axe is what makes the difference. And I guess you know it by now, that neither school, neither job can keep you up with the everchanging and ever leaping software world, so there will always have to be some extra effort outside of work hours to prepare for the next contract, or your own startup, or just keep you desired in your current job. Or am I wrong here? I've been doing Java for 15 years now (plus python last 5), so there should be similarities.
@@kamil4151 yes its not josh talking about. It just me giving an example about, Myself that not really make coding/engineering the center of everything in my life, so i couldn't careless about my friends ( who apparently really into coding ) opinion. and why i do that? because i have other interest. I hope ya got what i mean.
I respected you to though, we are on the same community, just do it in two different ways. I do upgrading my skilss, like read a new books edition or article or do some course in pluralsight , but when it times for my other interest, example ootball ,either it play on my sunday league team or watch my favorite team, i will not sacrifice it for coding/jobs.
Bruh im already a js dev and looking to learn .net or spring, because there is no js in large corps, so IMO java is good.
This is one of your best videos in my opinion. Everything ties together beautifully.
As an auto mechanic, I hate working on cars now, I can imagine as a programmer there is nothing more exciting than turning wrenches and building something more visceral (knowing of course that there’s no customer expectation in doing your own projects)
Change is good, experience is better.
I use these analogies all the time.
Great content dude.
Expectations on services seem to be surreal nowadays. "The expert will know", "The expert can do this eyes closed", "Why is it taking so long?", "How did you not manage to do the fix that I (me, me ,me ,me, me, me) need?". Systems keep getting more complex every day.
Before complaining, try five times to do the thing yourself.
Completely agree! Do what excites u! Discuss the design process! Love it
This video is a masterpiece.
Brett Dev! Love your channel!
oi mate, you got a loicense for this content?
Your rants are so effective, they’re cathartic for your audience. Keep it up Josh, those of us that are dissatisfied with the way things are in our corporate culture and aspire to treating each other with more respect and more down to earth honesty that doesn’t inject toxic positivity into the mix need you.
Look at Josh, man, so inspirational
This video really resonated. I’ve loved skateboarding my entire life and now as I’m in the tech word and have a busy family life I no longer have time to even skate. Thanks for sharing your perspective! BTW sick drive away outro haha
I have shared your video in some groups, I think a lot of people need to see. This video is simple clear, and amazing at the same time.
Thank you, Josh! You just sounded exactly my thoughts about coding and job, 1 to 1. I'm glad that I'm not just the one, who thinks so. Gives me a little hope. Unfortunately, almost 95% of projects, I'm worked with, suffered from shitty management, so working with those projects and those people was like a huge pain in the ass.
this video resonates with me so much. it’s why I’ve never been able to sit down and learn stuff I don’t want to learn and I just flat out refuse to do it. the tie-in with marketing being 90% of what sells a product is so true too…it’s why good salespeople make so much money

I looooooooooooooove this character development, Joshua Fluke's lore is getting better every video posted.
I'm not a programmer or coder, but I enjoy your contents. Thank you, Joshua!
Well said, Josh. Do what makes you happy!
Nice video. I'm working on a few projects that are well beyond my skill level and I use any tools I need to get them done. Definitely my favorite way of learning. I like the problem-solving aspect of it.
You totally missed here in my garage meme damn it
Knowledge!
😂😂😂
Tell a grocery store cashier: "Get excited about the groceries you can ring up with this cash register."
That is exactly what should be done - involving all workers in a good way in the job they are doing and the part they are playing in the community. We should all be grateful that there are stores with things we need, if in addition they care about quality, a contact with the customers, and their health, it's more meaningful.
People not profit in fokus.
I love how you've progressed on your channel, I think these videos as an ethos are much more valuable than coding videos.
Glad you like them!
Relate so much to this video!
Man! Thank you for clarifying all this. I went through so much confusion in college because it felt like when you asked questions or watched tutorials there was no clear path on why or what a language or library is used for. This perfectly describes a majority of the confusion developers go through.
Life gotta have Meaning.
As a teacher I taught my scheduled subjects, always also to enhance life-skills, I helped my students grow, deepen their self-esteem, better connecting with others, tolerance, communication, self-reliance, how to take on a task that made their world a better place in widening circles, finding their vocation.
When school-authorities tried to make the Meaning of my job impossible I quit teaching. Nevertheless I am still finding Meaning in efforts to do my bit to make the world a better place, for me, for my nearest and dearest, and for people and living beings in general.
In other words: I understand you, Joshua, 100%, and I think your rant is very meaningful, understandable, and a huge step forward towards your next growing phase.
So what are you personally passionate about now and how can you promote it?
Would you like to help the FireBrigade, build mutual insurance and financial security, or monitoring nature so it isn't destroyed? Something quite else?
The question about 'passion and deepest values' is a good one, but it is a plague when it is trivialized and commercialized.
Thank you so much for your videos! Keep them coming, please!
I hope you can get this message out to more people. There are a lot who need to hear this.
Great points, I’m also a big fan of the moving set instead of filming the whole vid at the desk, definitely feels more conversational and flows well 👍🏼
I'm so glad you made this video and put things into perspective. I feel the same way and it's good to know I'm not the only one
Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Good movie!
Best way to learn to code is work toward building a project you’re interested in
@john doe It's true. That's why collaborating with others, distributing the burden, using 'power tools' to speed things up is part of the arsenal. All we can really do.
Like literally what I'm interested in?
Josh. I've been watching you for quite a while now. I love your personality. Even if you just sit and talk in front of the camera its entertaining !
Awesome to see your channel evolving Josh! Really enjoy your take on things at work/things in life in general.
I agree 100% with Josh on this one, coding is a tool, that's about it for most people.
I majored in EE, I didn't have much interest in coding at all, but I'm absolutely enthusiastic about making electronics.
When I see those extremely cool "smart" devices, of course I wanted to be able to build them myself.
So I easily overcame my lack of interest in coding, quickly picked up assembly and C/C++(pretty much what you learn as a EE major in school) writing firmware for STM32 microcontrollers.
In the following years, I taught myself rtos and linux, to be able to use more powerful SOCs.
When I realized I need to write applications for my devices, I learned python, GUI, SQL, etc.
I end up learning pretty much everything I need of CS, just from the information you can get on google, without actually going to school for it, in about 3 years.
So my advice to those stuck in tutorial hell: find something you want to build, that you're passionate about, then just find a way to implement it, using whatever language, tool, technology that's available.
You hit the nail on the head with this one. That’s why I get bored with programming in school because a lot of what we do is BORING and USELESS. Like yes, we need to know the fundamentals, but how can I get a job with all this?
Agreed. I was exited to begin with but goddamn it was boring af, never went back to it
@@yaomang08 it’s hard to stay excited sometimes, what do you do now?
Nothing in school is useless. It may be useless to you or many people but it not useless. :]
Great video! Love the honesty. Great cuts and transitions to the different locations. Keep the videos coming man!
this rant was so great! thanks! very inspiring
That outro was badass lol
The whole video is a gift :)
I pretty much feel the same way! Great video, love it!
Great Advice Joshua thanks!!
I'm studying to become a network enginner to make a bit more money, just to be able to work less in the future. I hate working so much that I need to work on it to get it to work.
I would say a farmer is pretty noble job and people who help take care of the environment.
Farming is one of the hardest and most under-appreciated jobs on this ball. Requiring so much useful knowledge spanning industries and sustains a family and his community. You can’t be an idiot and be a farmer.
That's true in priciple, and it completely depends on the kind of farm it is about - applying monoculture, artificial fertilizers, and pesticide round-up, is the horror for all but the profit-collectors.
As consumers we must take care to really support the farmers you have in mind; Troy.
We also need supervision of the labels for Fair Trade and ecological farming.
One has to be as aware in this field as Joshua in his. I wonder if there isn't coding opportunities to monitor production there.
@@DNA350ppm I'm generally about organics. We have many Amish farmers in the area and I don't believe they use pesticides. They dont even use tractors, Lol, just horses.
@@troymitchel4790 The Amish sure have many great farming traditions.
There was a development called High farming, where for example crop rotation substituted for moderned industrialized farming - but regrettably High farming was marginalized by agrobusiness that had quick-solutions to sell. In his books John Seymour has tried to keep up the spread of knowledge about this - as I think - REAL farming.
The prohibition of family-planning was one of the factors that was a nail in the family-farms' coffins and made them unprofitable.
All of us should understand more about farming, though city-dwellers, because food and water are for ever essential to life, and we should pay what it takes to bring us real, healthy produce.
Farming is a lifestyle. You take the good with the bad, otherwise you move to the city.
Masterpiece vlog!
A true lesson of life!
Definitely keep doing these videos to teach the young kids about life; this is what really matters, not the boring code stuff.
Excited to see all your content on your channel
This needed to be said.
You sound like Tyler Durden from Fight Club the movie: You are not you job , you are not you bank account, you are not your Khakis!!
Nice video I like the background change up it's a nice touch
Love this video. Your channel honestly is a relief. Reminds me that work isn't what life is about. I am not a dev in my full time job, but the thoughts in this video can really apply to many jobs
"I want to make cool shit", dude that's exactly what I thought when I started going into animation!!! Other people in my classes say they want to work for Pixar or so and so company I was just so disconnected...
Josh you're fucking dope!
I think you hit the nail in the head. At first I thought I was passionate about coding as well, but I realized that I was passionate about the PROJECTS I did when I was coding. I enjoy making my own video games, websites, aps, and such, as much as I enjoy making art. Making stuff is fun. I don't know if that enjoyment will transfer over int developing a corporate app or something like that.
Josh, Love your Rant & your Honesty !
7:30 biggest thing I've learned making apps... sadly people won't just magically find and download them
The motorcycles are great! I’d like to see more videos maybe driving the motorcycles!!!
Best video so far!!! That's really impressive! Thanks!
Love this! Smart guy.
That's actually what I did: I learned the minimum of VueJS and aced the interview and got the job! To be honest, I had some interest in VueJS. But since I know I have the job I do not care about the framework at all. It is kind of weird but makes sense because I just need it for the job. Anyway - keep on doing your videos! They help!
I still like coding because it allows me to build websites and tools on my own that maybe will be useful to other people aswell.
I see working for a company as just a temporary learning process that will strengthen those skills, hoping that one day I can use them to build my own products and get that independence and passive income so I can retire early
Good plan. Go for it
Love u and your honest rants
the bit about marketing. spot on. I learned some digital marketing and realized it's way easier to understand than intense programming, but can make far more money.
I wholeheartedly agree, Building things (not via software) is far more interesting and engaging.
As an engineer without the degree, I can agree. It isn't the code that gets me excited for making a distro. It's the vision, accomplishments and just the notion of it coming together (the project i mentioned above). In other words, i don't care about algorithms, data structures or any of that. I care about getting it done and planning it.
Yes Josh! That’s what’s it is - been screaming this for a while!
Here for the rant and tea
THANK YOU
I have been feeling this way for awhile. I see a tutorial and it shows me to do some stupid a + b = c crap. But really I always ask. Well can you show me how to make a characters health bar increase and decrease based on damage applied, or how to do something useful with an application. I never can see ahead as to what I can use it for. But when I do it's amazing. I agree completely on this video
That's the big thing that demotivates me to learn code: I'm always wondering "when am I gonna use this?" I wanna make a computer game, not some enterprise software. How's regex and JSON gonna help me outside of big data (which I assume will be used for creating spambot lists to sell)? That's why I liked my intro Python class, but phoned in the one after that, and dropped the one after that one; they're training me to be a code monkey. Same for the free class I got myself into; claims they'll teach Python but I'm sure it'll just be interview prep.
100%. Thank you for doing this.
I get interested in coding from an analytical perspective, but that interest comes from what I can DO with it.
omg the scene transitions, love them. Its like a car sales man advert :D
For me I want to be aware of upcoming tools and methodology, so I know which technologies I may want to slot into a project. Doesn't mean I have to learn it that very moment, and I think it's fine to be at least excited about the potential. Ultimately tools and methodology exist to save you time or enable new things, don't be a slave to them, but also try to be aware of them. Just my two cents.
this. its great to learn that they exist, and how they work but if they aren't useful right now save them for later and keep building
Accurate, using the tools to build something is where all the excitement comes from because you know you built something you wanted to, you successfully put it together and made it work, I agree with this 100 percent.
This is what differentiates great coders, they know many tools they did not have to use so far, ready to spare a lot of time when the time is right. If you never walked through hardware store and tried stuff, you might not know how much more efficient you can be with the right tools.
Love this video, and I honestly feel the same. I prefer having a tangible project to do because then I'm down to learn anything.
best video ive seen all year!
Sounds to me like you should make a course, that actually tells people what they need to know. I got stuck on the hello world thing on python and was stuck at that level until I started to do projects.
You'd crush it monetarily
The hello world thing is an interesting concept. Maybe we give beginners way too much time and structure, when we should probably try to encourage them to wing it and solve a problem they have for themselves after a quick primer, rather than a semester long course on the basics of Python/Java. Also, we should probably tell people about objects sooner, because that's what most languages are made of
Fuck Hello Worlds. Learn the fundamentals of Computing if you really wanna build stuff. Learning C programming was one of the best things i ever did. Forced me to learn how code actually works and what it does, i don't use C anymore, but those concepts i learned are transversal to any programming language i have learned since.
@@slamislife74 Totally incorrect approach.
Hello world is a great beginner approach because it introduces you to the idea that code is not scary at all.
What you propose is a good way to learn-sort of a fast track-but it’d scare too many people off.
It’s kind of like boxing.
It’s more efficient to throw someone into sparring right away. It’s where they truly learn how to string combos together and it all really starts to make sense.
Problem is, it’d scare many people away
@@YEDxYED there's a sweet spot if you do too much hello world type stuff you'll be left thinking "well this is pointless when can I do something cool?" That was my first thought when I watched my first tutorial. Though once I got into it found I really enjoyed it.
When I was coding from 9-5:30, with 1 hour for lunch, and two 15 minute breaks. The breaks and lunch is what I looked forward to. The coding was mind numbingly boring, excruciatingly painful.
Great video!
This was great! Thanks!
25 years, and I have been burnt out on Java enough times.
Thanks for saying it, I feel I'm guilty of this sometimes...getting excited and fixated about tools when I should be excited about what I can use them for
It's not something to feel guilty about, if it is satisfying for you go for it.
I love your channel, because it encourages to view things in different perspective. If it were not for you I would not have my first intership now, so thanks for somewhat of a head start :D
appreciate your truth and no bullshit honesty. industry gets too wrapped in the technicalities / craft, and you will never be free from system unless you pursue big picture mindset.
But React 18 is going to blow your mind Josh! it will support React 16 and ES2021! You're going to love it!
😴😴😴😴😴😴
Life is more than that bro.
Work to live not live to work. Finally. Someone who says what I’ve been saying for 4+ years.
I have been saying that for 5 years now and still, nobody listens to me, even though it is the fact.
I can't even understand people nowadays. The decision of people....make no sense
@Reese Sane graduate
Amen!!!! Again, took the words out of my mouth. Coding is ultimately boring, I learned it out of duty while at uni, I understand it but it is mighty boring to be sat looking at lines. The building is the actual ultimate goal. Keep the good work man.
This is my new favorite video about the tech. A lot if things I’ve been thinking about lately kinda reaffirmed
I could not agree more! When I wanted to learn programming, I met a developer who was at that time in charge of projects ( He wasn't coding anymore. Just leading projects). I asked him what should I learn to code. To which he answered " Anything as long as you have project. If you learn to code just for the sake of coding, you're gonna get bored and give up quickly." But then having projects made me realised that without Marketing it was useless ( As Joshua said).
That's why I'm glad I stumbled across Joshua's channel as it helped me to keep that mindset.
I work in Software Development (Not a dev but an Automation QA) and these videos are why I've been subbed to your channel for a couple years now. You always speak facts Josh and say what most of us are feeling. Everything you say about these jobs and this corporate environment is completely accurate.
It's refreshing to hear this from someone else, I started to think I had some deficiency when I couldn't conjure up the same enthusiasm as my colleagues about work life. My colleagues always know about organization changes, who is the new VP, they read all the yammer updates and watch every webcast on how our "digital transformation" is going. I just don't care about this stuff but all this time I thought I was too dumb to keep up with all the 'new and exciting changes' to this organization. I do however seem to have the attention span for stuff I'm interested in and passionate about, and about 100% of those projects are stuff I do outside of wage slavery.
Good explanation video 👍
