inspiring lecturer, he likes to tangent but that's what helps, he brings in related ideas and concepts that people know from other aspects of life! i have similar lecturers to him, but sadly others which are mundane and poorly express a concept. Respect to the uploader as well as Richard, having access to these is amazing! I could learn my degree without the high fees from online resources. The internet is a means to communicate, we need to ensure it stays open and free!
There are layers to mastery. Seeking 10 bullet points is arbitrary and misguided. He isn't teaching tips, nor qualities, but mindset and path. You must follow a progression from understanding the syntax, to high level strategy, to design, to intuition and high level flow--All founded on persistence, experience, and challenging yourself. He talks you past mental blocks and emphasizes managing yourself as central. Bullet points would go in one ear and out the other.
in Chinese and Japanese, though they do now ALSO use arabic digits like we do, especially in math and science, they also have chinese characters which represent these, and these are traditionally read vertically, from top to bottom
whats the use of naming the bullets? i find this the same as showing the formula when calculating the area of some shape. Of course you can do that, but to really understand and derive things, you need to get things visual in your head, and seeing one's perspective and build on it is one of the best things you can do. Its definitely not a waste of time for me.
Based on that logic, you were the same out of University..? If everyone before you thought like you, where would you be? Nowhere. Its people that can be patient and helpful that led you to where you are now, just like every Comp Science grad wants to be, or atleast some.
All-in-all, after watching this video, what did you really take away from it? Sifting through the needless garbage what REAL 'information' are you left with which defines "What makes a good programmer"?
Really? So WHAT did you actually learn from it? Just from watching this video, can you name 10 (or more) things that answer the question "What makes a good programmer"?
How do you know he has no real world experience in programming? Your making a judgement based on what? I know plenty of Uni profs who have a whole load more programming experience than 6 years. To make such an arrogant statement and group everyone who’s been to Uni as bad programmer shows me that you don’t really know what you are talking about and you have issues. “Ignorance (in you’re your case) begets confidence and not knowledge”
He does a lot of 'fancy' talk and gets away with it because his audiance have little or no knowledge of programming and therefore, attempts to 'entertain' them rather than 'teach' them. The question "What makes a good programmer" can be presented as a bulleted list of statements - and save the waffle for explanations. Also, a bulleted list of "What makes a person a bad programmer" can be used for comparison purposes. The whole thing can be defined in 10 minutes instead of wasting peoples' time.
So based on your logic your views on programming are correct oppossed to the Uni prof. So we now have to ignore the Uni prof advice because you think you are better programmer than him? Why because you didnt go to Uni and if you had it would have made you a bad programmer????? If you write code like the way you think and reason then your in more trouble than you know. Please stop offering your opinions ---no one is interested.

Wow.. the points that you made are quite impressive...well put.
Thanks. Someone who actually understood lecture!
Amazing, no words can speak about this prof, really good
Amazing teacher! Thanks for uploading this :) !
Great lecture. I wish my professors were that interesting to listen to.
I know nothing of programming and I loved this lecture.
Back way before covid when almost all lectures weren’t prerecorded haha 😂
It's his style of teaching that interests people in learning more.Watch his lecture on pointers in C.
This guy is amazing!!!!!!!! I wish he was my teacher at Uni. Any more Computer Science videos in the pipeline Richard?
Started coding again after long years. Watching this vid, trying to be a good coder
nooooo!!! I wanted to know what he was going to assemble the potatoes into! lol... great lecture... and it's great to have so many more.
I really like how at 13:23 he starts review the entire class.

Heh, Sauron. Cool lecture. Never knew about big and least importance with bytes in memory.

I really like how he reviews the entire class starting at 13:23
these kinda should have had many likes
Amazing!
i love the way "messy hair" is one of the tags
22:25 The theory of recapitulation expressed as "ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny." 1866. Ernst Haeckel
I am not sure he got the endianess example right ! but a great video
Exactly true.
IIRC, german pronounces numbers backwards; e.g., 95 is feunf und neinzig (sp?), meaning "five and ninety".
Self Education is the truth
co's he's a scientist XD
nice lecture :D interesting professor.
man i wish i were in this uni
Yeah, but that's only when speaking or writing out the words.

getting into UNSW is fucking hard!
what was he going to assemble the potatoes into ???
22:00 Ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny
What's with the labcoat?
Assemble those potatoes into WHAT? Oh man, did you really have to cut the video exactly at THAT most intriguing point? :(
Genes is what makes a good progammer...
i believe didactic is the word that describes this
I am not a good programmer. But I am a cearful programmer.
All-in-all, after watching this video, what did you really take away from it? Sifting through the needless garbage what REAL 'information' are you left with which defines "What makes a good programmer"?
Did you actually watched the lecture? LOL! It amazes me how people can be so stupid!
messy hair ?? :D
an hour long video
