I can definitely relate to this. Here's how you do it. You just do it. Period. If you have two videos ready, make them public. It's the intention that counts. If you want to help people learn, or contribute, don't get bogged down by how people will judge you. It is an extremely exhilarating feeling when someone reaches out to you and lets you know that they found your content useful. The moment you make the switch from being a passive consumer to an active producer, something switches within you. I started putting out videos on tensorflow a few months ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-EvyKpZjmQ This was the first time I had done anything like this- my goal is not to get subscribers, or views or anything, it is just to put out content in a form that I would have liked to consume. I have a three and half year old and there have been times where he is literally sitting on my head while I am trying to make the videos. It's all worth it. Just take the next step.

Thanks for reminding about Andrew's course. Had to contribute after that :)

What the writer of this article is forgetting is that the self driving cars has all kinds of 360 degree sensors to let it know whether it is safe to take that turn or not. It's not going to turn right if it has been tracking a cyclist on a collision course due to that turn.

Luckily the BT interface works kinda okay for me - I have the app running on my macbook pro at all times while working (am walking as I am typing this right now) :)

I have a lifespan fitness TR1200DT machine. Got it off Amazon. I had it in my office for the first couple months, but then moved it home.

I am 42 and the single best advice I can give you is to invest in a treadmill desk. This WILL change your life as a software developer. You'll start blessing the day you made this as a career choice because this is one of the only jobs that'll allow you to workout while working and end up being more productive than if were not doing so. Here are the readouts for the steps that I walked just on the treadmill (not counting whatever I do while not working on the treadmill desk) Current week (so far): 22 miles 58061 steps last week : 42.24 miles 105840 steps week before : 35.26 miles 93239 steps week before : 36.7 miles 94145 steps

etc..

I can easily hit an average of 5 miles per day of walking if I am not traveling. You'll sleep much better, have tons of energy and will be much more productive at work. And the best thing is, you use absolutely no extra time. I paid $1500 for the setup I have. I'd pay $5000 without blinking a bat after spending around 6 months with the machine.

You start with feeling bad for Sony and its employees. You see a letter like this and my response goes from feeling bad to "Screw you Sony. You first show immense stupidity in how you handle your security and then flex your muscle around."

My standard advice to folks with corporate jobs who want to venture out on their own is this- hire a couple of guys to vet out your idea. Get the product market fit right, get the MVP done and have someone start talking to potential customers while you are still making a salary. If it is difficult to set aside $5K-$8K per month for this while you are working, it'll be significantly harder once you are not bringing in anything. One of the biggest lessons for me when I did my own start up was that no one else is on the same timeline as you are. They go on their long holidays while you are refreshing gmail every minute to see whether they replied to your email. All the while, you are trying to survive on whatever you have in your diminishing bank account. Age also is a definite factor. If you are in your early twenties and used to surviving on $1500 of research assistantship from university, it is much easier to take random bets. You'll only learn from them. Once you are beyond a certain stage in your life, the equation totally changes.
