Fun Good.
Boring Bad.
We create all of our books and videos with you in mind. We want you to laugh, cry, sing and shout with joy every time you engage with one of our productions. Boring Foo/Bar demos don't do this. Meticulously cared for productions do. That's our calling.
Spend your weekends learning something interesting without being bored to tears!
Your job as a programmer is directly tied to how much you know. You could spend your weekends and evenings plowing through boring, poorly-edited videos on YouTube or productions built on PowerPoint decks, or you could have a good time and actually enjoy the process.
I want to help you do the latter - to enjoy learning the exciting concepts and tools that make you a better programmer. You'll learn more, faster, and have a better time which means you get paid more and get to go home sooner!
Don't have a CS degree? Neither do I - so I wrote a book.
I'm a self-taught developer, and for most of my career, I've learned what was required to get the job done. When conversations veered toward core concepts, I disengaged. I decided to change all of this in 2014. I sat down and looked up all of the topics that a typical CS degree covers and then I dove in. The result is The Imposter’s Handbook: a compendium of my year-long quest to fill the holes in my CS knowledge.
Our Online Courses
Imposter's Handbook: Videos
Learn your CS Concepts with these 17 videos based on The Imposter's Handbook. I spent over 5 months putting these 17 videos together (~3.5 hours), fine-tuning the audio, editing the videos down to be as concise as possible. You won’t stare at bullet points on a slide for 5 minutes while I drone on, nor will you watch me fumble about trying to type while I install dependencies. Your time is valuable, and if I’ve done my job right, you’ll turn that time into knowledge.
Expand Your Career Options
Need to get out of a job fast and do something completely different? Cover all of your bases by prepping for the big interview with our Coding Interview Bootcamp production and setting yourself up to go out on your own with our Going Solo production. Contract work can be highly rewarding and incredibly freeing. You just need to set yourself up right from the start. We're here to make this happen for you!
Nail that Interview: Reduced!
Interviewing for a position as a programmer can be intimidating as well as just a little bit infuriating. Unfortunately, that's the way it is - but you don't have to go it alone. We created a 5.5 hour video tutorial that is for people just like you who need some practice and a strategy - and we're bundling that with The Imposter's Handbook for 30% off. You get the book and 9 hours of solid video!
