[1383.30 --> 1384.74] instantly after declaring an
[1384.74 --> 1385.02] incident.
[1385.50 --> 1386.50] Now your processes can be
[1386.50 --> 1388.08] consistent and automatic.
[1388.52 --> 1390.22] The next step is to try it free.
[1390.36 --> 1392.08] Small teams, up to 10 people,
[1392.22 --> 1393.54] can get started for free with all
[1393.54 --> 1394.74] FireHydrant features included.
[1395.08 --> 1396.46] No credit card is required.
[1396.92 --> 1398.98] Get started at FireHydrant.io.
[1399.36 --> 1401.38] Again, FireHydrant.io.
[1401.38 --> 1419.18] Well, I want to segue in to,
[1419.82 --> 1421.82] instead of maybe talking more about
[1421.82 --> 1424.60] how we learn and approaches to
[1424.60 --> 1426.76] learning, let's talk about
[1426.76 --> 1428.02] learning and go.
[1428.02 --> 1430.36] And so we kind of touched on that
[1430.36 --> 1432.08] about the starting point in
[1432.08 --> 1433.80] foundations and computer science
[1433.80 --> 1435.02] fundamentals in your course,
[1435.34 --> 1436.46] your Udemy course, Dave.
[1436.88 --> 1440.72] But how do you teach beginners go?
[1440.98 --> 1442.42] And we can talk about this either
[1442.42 --> 1445.18] from other languages in terms of
[1445.18 --> 1447.84] their experience or from scratch.
[1448.18 --> 1450.40] And what do you think is unique to
[1450.40 --> 1452.08] learning and go versus just
[1452.08 --> 1453.20] programming in general?
[1453.90 --> 1455.70] Well, I specifically at this point
[1455.70 --> 1457.46] specialize in starting from scratch.
[1457.46 --> 1460.48] And so I have my course that is
[1460.48 --> 1462.42] designed really to bring someone up
[1462.42 --> 1463.00] from scratch.
[1463.44 --> 1465.56] And one thing I did find is that
[1465.56 --> 1466.86] originally some people were having
[1466.86 --> 1468.20] some trouble with the technical
[1468.20 --> 1468.98] aspects of it.
[1469.04 --> 1470.00] They were having some trouble with
[1470.00 --> 1471.84] GoPath and GoRoot and some of those
[1471.84 --> 1472.16] things.
[1473.00 --> 1475.48] And originally I had created
[1475.48 --> 1476.98] Windows installation videos and
[1476.98 --> 1479.70] saying, hey, if you want, you can go
[1479.70 --> 1481.88] ahead and, you know, do the same
[1481.88 --> 1482.60] thing on Mac.
[1482.66 --> 1483.84] You can do the same thing on Linux.
[1483.84 --> 1486.26] And when I rebooted the course and
[1486.26 --> 1487.94] specialized more in helping beginners,
[1487.94 --> 1489.82] I said, the heck with that noise.
[1489.82 --> 1493.24] And I literally have approached it to
[1493.24 --> 1495.62] give them videos and follow through
[1495.62 --> 1499.70] instructions on Windows 10, on Mac OS,
[1499.80 --> 1502.18] as well as Ubuntu Linux, so that they
[1502.18 --> 1503.62] at least have something that looks,
[1503.80 --> 1506.12] tastes and smells similar to whatever
[1506.12 --> 1507.08] platform they have.
[1507.10 --> 1508.60] Because there were some people that
[1508.60 --> 1509.66] were experiencing problems.
[1509.66 --> 1512.16] And my intent with it is to reduce
[1512.16 --> 1513.82] the amount of friction at all
[1513.82 --> 1514.28] possible.
[1514.96 --> 1517.32] Once they achieve that, though, what
[1517.32 --> 1519.34] I find is that people are really
[1519.34 --> 1520.42] functional within it.
[1520.50 --> 1521.54] They get an understanding.
[1522.02 --> 1523.62] One of the beautiful things that is,
[1523.70 --> 1526.36] I think, unique about Go as well is
[1526.36 --> 1528.06] that if people want, they can get into
[1528.06 --> 1529.18] the Go code itself.
[1529.34 --> 1529.96] It's there.
[1530.08 --> 1531.08] It's in your workstation.
[1531.28 --> 1533.18] If you're interested in how, you know,
[1533.26 --> 1534.68] print line works and things of that
[1534.68 --> 1536.40] nature, you can sort of dive into it
[1536.40 --> 1538.66] and start to see these other elements
[1538.66 --> 1540.76] and how they come together in the
[1540.76 --> 1543.40] compiler and provide a, you know,
[1543.42 --> 1545.36] the end user experience of the
[1545.36 --> 1547.14] compilation and the code that gets
[1547.14 --> 1547.66] executed.
[1548.08 --> 1549.56] So really, I think, you know, it's
[1549.56 --> 1550.92] similar to other programming languages
[1550.92 --> 1553.58] in the sense that the fundamentals
[1553.58 --> 1554.28] are the same.
[1554.68 --> 1556.92] But it has, you know, great syntax.
[1557.30 --> 1558.24] It's really thoughtful.
[1558.58 --> 1560.52] It's really built for concurrency.
[1561.06 --> 1563.28] And I think it's really an effective
[1563.28 --> 1565.48] language for beginners because some of
[1565.48 --> 1566.90] those obscure elements in earlier
[1566.90 --> 1568.06] languages aren't there.
[1568.56 --> 1570.06] It's very quick to compile.
[1570.66 --> 1572.14] So I'm really an evangelist when it
[1572.14 --> 1572.78] comes to it.
[1573.04 --> 1574.50] But I did find that some of the
[1574.50 --> 1575.84] students that I was experiencing had
[1575.84 --> 1577.50] that little bit of friction at first.
[1577.88 --> 1580.10] And now if I can get them over that,
[1580.22 --> 1581.68] you know, then they're off to the
[1581.68 --> 1581.90] races.
