I really try to learn something from them, but each and every tutorial on YouTube is absurdly terrible and incorrect, just like they themselves don't know what they are doing.
For instance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mM6vMMLYJHY

Here are some examples:
-Defining parent as a one-to-one relationship with a student;
-Constantly opening multiple windows and instances to reach a goal (like to create a simple project in VS Code).
-Not using shortcuts for simple operations (opening files or folders, opening terminal, arrow keys to navigate terminal history, etc)
-Trial and Error approach to solving problems (error -> fix 1 line -> error again -> fix another line -> repeat).
-Excessive copy & pasting.
-Improper English pronunciation (just as bad as they are coding, they never learned English properly).

And so on. Why are they like this? I'm genuinely starting to think that Indians don't belong in tech.


The first 4 Minutes of the video look presentable and promising, and you can forgive his accent with the hope you'll learn some valuable skills...
Until he uses the File explorer address bar to open Command Prompt (not even PowerShell) and you realize he's one of those.

You don't need YouTube tutorials, learn the very basics, then just pick a project and learn how to do things as you go

Most online programming tutorials are bad then add to it that the avg indian is not the brightest person you'll get this
>>81701084
also this, one can learn way more by doing projects, look at other github projects or just reading the docs of the library if it's big enough to have one

You're right. I should honestly feel pity for him being set up like this. At least he knows what an IDE and cli is unlike most zoomers over here. It is still funny, though.

>-Defining parent as a one-to-one relationship with a student
This is probably fine even in production, you only need this to have a contact address and phone number for the legal guardian. A many to many relationship is more accurate to real life but is complete overkill for this purpose.

Did you know you don't need to submit any legal registration paperwork to name your windows user? You can just make up a business name and create a tiktok channel for it.

In this scenario the correct would be a Foreign Key (one-to-many), considering a parent can have many children studying at the same school (registered in the same database)

It can be, I don't know for sure. But he can just look younger than he actually is

It's not bad, they just give you the raw unedited version.
You will always make plenty of mistakes all the time even as an expert, they just don't hide them from you

You might argue it confuses you and wastes your time, but on the other hand you get those cooking or drawing tutorials where you simply can't understand how the process went on

This is fine, many-to-many would be a bad domain fit if one parent may in fact only enroll one child, and one child may only be entered into enrollment by one parent.
If you don't like the examples, make your own damn tutorials.

Let's be honest, it's not fine. What if the student has a sibling?

>>81701766
I know. but in his example, the Parent model defines two fields: mother and father. so that part is technically correct (check my screenshot)

It can be seem as that, but it's not efficient. The point of teaching is to give your students the most efficient way to solve a problem. The example I mentioned is not very efficient, even tho he reaches the goal promised.

Then they obviously get enrolled by the other parent.

A child can also have more than one parent. More than two if you factor in adoption and fostering and other complex legal guardianship situations. Data duplication is not necessarily a bad thing.

Then there will be multiple separate parent entries for the same human parent and that's fine. Try to understand that 'parent' in this modeling represents a relationship between a student and a legal guardian, it doesn't uniquely represent a specific human being. Model things based on how they fit into your business domain, not based on how they are in the real world (which can never be perfectly represented for anything even remotely complex)

true, everything is possible. one can also say that the concept of parents is not real and that reality is an illusion. But let's keep the scope simple and solid.

>Not using shortcuts
It's to be considerate of the viewer who's likely to be a newbie of course. The same thing could be said about opening multiple windows to separate the content into easily digestible chunks.

What's wrong with using the file explorer bar to open command prompt? Otherwise you have to cd to the right folder.

It's cheaper for companies to hire these shit skins and use AI than it is for them to hire an actual programmer. This goes for pretty much anything IT, too.

when i was trying to learn more about object inheritance during college, I watched several videos on the subject, and unfortunately its not easy to avoid dumbass jeet tutorials.
but one thing i noticed is how when explaining objects, they always used exotic name brand cars as exmples. Bugatti, Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc. they never used animals or dog breeds. they never used normal cars like toyota, bmw, honda, etc. it was always the most gaudy super car brands.

something about this really stuck with me. i feel like i learned something about the subconscious jeet mind from this
