I don't know...if you can't figure out how to install python on a local machine...maybe you don't have any business being a coder to begin with. I mean, come on...
edit: the downvotes from the delicate snowflakes crack me up...
Yeah this happened a couple times last week too...I just assume it happens every time there's a huge jump in volume...
Thank you, that helps a lot.
It would be impossible for me to re-record every single video using AWS as the dev environment...I have thousands.
We wouldn't want to hurt Amazon's feelings.
Codemy.com is my website. I don't host my videos on youtube.
I can add team members if they already have an account...if not, there seems to be no way for them to sign up.
Yeah, I went with the one backed by Amazon...stupid me.
It works if you already have an account. I think anyone who watches one of my videos from today forward is out of luck.
I teach courses online too...now all of my videos using C9.io as the dev environment (thousands of videos) are obsolete. This sucks.
So disappointed with this!
I teach coding courses online...I've published dozens of courses teaching many different programming languages to thousands of students. In every single course, I recommend and use c9.io as the dev environment.
In one stupid swoop, Amazon has made all my courses obsolete.
Now people watching my videos can't create an account on C9, they have to sign up for aws and use the completely different interface. People can no longer follow along with the thousands of videos I've created.
I get that you bought C9 and want to integrate it. But why close down c9.io to new accounts? Why can't they both exist?
So very disappointed...
Aren't Fox News and the Wall Street Journal owned by the same company? :-P
Nope, this is more likely all kinds of illegal!
Come on, we've known this for years. Do we really need a study to tell us that? Hell, the only interview question I've asked new hirees since around 2003 is: "do you indent with spaces or tabs". Really cuts through the BS. It's foolproof!
:-p
College students are in fact real humans....
Looks quite written to me...I just read it.
yes again; good for you...but totally irrelevant.
There are python books, they are sold, keeping them off this list is lame.
Ah, yep...that explains it then.
I don't grant the premise that fewer Ruby and Python books are sold... Regardless, the number sold is greater than 1 so they should really be listed in the app.
No Ruby on Rails books? Or Python?
Even a cursory glance at the blog shows that this is his attempt to journal his journey...nothing more. You are splitting hairs.
That's incorrect. He wrote a blog about what he was personally doing to get hired at Google... he wasn't claiming to teach people how to get hired.
The guy has an awesome CV and 15+ years experience as a self-employed developer/entrepreneur...
Yeah but who do you sue if the old flaky paint in the house you own causes your kid to get lead poisoning?
You miss the point...
C9 still offers their service for free...they're just asking for a credit card to verify identity or some such nonsensical thing...
And no, I don't just expect them to offer it for free...if they want to charge, that's perfectly fine. But don't say that it's free and then require a credit card...

from the self-post dept.
I teach Ruby on Rails video courses online, and I use c9 as the cloud development environment in all my courses. It's great because it's free, it's online, everyone has access, and everyone's screen looks the same (great for teaching purposes). Plus C9 works really well...I don't think they used to, but now it appears that C9 requires a credit card to sign up for their free accounts. I'm...
Wow this looks pretty cool!
