What channels do you guys like to follow on YouTube for coding?

I honestly believe alot of those 'career advice' youtubers are failed programmers. They can't get a job as a programmer so they've made a youtube channel about......how to get a job as a programmer.

Some maybe but you can make more on youtube and more importantly, you are independent.
Programming is being commoditised and that is reducing personal freedom, job satisfaction and salaries.

Colt Steele, one of the few people that seems to genuinely enjoy teaching.


He has a few inexpensive courses on Udemy, but his following is so big there, I think he just uses YouTube to give away material that he doesn't plan on including in his courses. Few traces of upselling or pitching his paid products unlike a lot of others I've seen. Granted he doesn't go into as much detail as he would if he were covering the topic in one of his courses
