Ever wondered what's under the guise of yet another developer tutorial or essay? Learn how "YouTube coders" have figured out monetization and what tactics they use to sell most of their products.

Highlights

Alright, here is purely my takeaway from what I gleaned. It's not comprehensive by any means, so better watch the video first!

• 🤏 Meritocracy
  • Misconceptions to make you marketable: "10x dev", "1% top software developers", etc.
  • These YouTubers don't want you to know that the world is unfair.
  • Students and AI fear as a market.
• 💸 Money
  • Mere numbers to bait clicks: "75+ LPA", "HIGHEST SALARIES", etc.
  • Skill gap is the silent part.
• 📈 Trend chasing
  • Fearmongering is popular as ever.
  • Videobloggers plant the seed in unsuspecting minds and then retract when it bites them.
• 💩 Bashing specific technologies
  • Saying "PHP bad" just because they use framework for unintended designs.
  • Switching involves burning previous technology, somehow.
• 😓 Regret videos
  • Bad message: software engineering is a race with finish line.
  • Trying to be relatable to the viewer by demonstratively showing resignation.
    • Regret about not knowing something.
    • Regret about using technology.
• 👻 Scare marketing
  • Fake pretence of machine replacing certain or all kinds of developers.

People who still look for or look up to a strong leader still have this feudalistic mindset, a by-product of colonialism.

They are unaware that the true rulers in a democracy are the people themselves.

The public is the King in a democracy.

The government is our servant.

We pay their salaries via taxes. We decide whether to keep them or fire them every five years.

So if you want to improve your nation. You need a strong, responsible, educated and progressive voter. The true leaders of the country. The country will only go as far as the voters demand.

So, know your right. Know your power. And if the servant tries to walk all over you and steal your power, it's time to kick them out. 

Don't settle for less. Don't waste your vote on communal or racial comeraderie because that's how conmen have conned the commonwealth for thousands of years. 

Don't give up your power unconditionally because the guy has the same religion or caste as you because then they can keep looting you unconditionally. 

Remember it's your job. You have to end corruption, you have to fix inflation, you have to make sure your women are safe, you have to make sure your everyone in your family and neighbourhood is employed, you have to make sure public schools and hospitals provides the highest quality of service. And the government is the servant you delegated these jobs to. 

If that servant fails to make any progress. If they have made it worse. If they have hired corrupt subordinates instead of putting them in jail. If that servant ignores sexual violence based on caste or ethnicity. If that servant fails to provide the jobs they promised. How dare that servant stole all the power from the majority and lied to them that the minorities are stealing their power. It's time to fire that servant before he comes for your freedom.
