Why developers hate Android Studio, memory consumption

If you decide to connect your future with mobile development, you cannot avoid getting acquainted with Android Studio - the most popular integrated application development environment for Android devices. In the video presented here you can learn not only about the advantages but also about the disadvantages of this software. Memory leaks, unexpected crashes, problems with logs, incorrect APK builds - it’s better for a future developer to know about all this in advance. The video is also useful because the author talks about both Android Studio problems and how to fix them.

"I'm not a programmer." Problems with learning a programming language at university

A rather frank and slightly emotional video in which a girl student at one of the St. Petersburg technical universities talks about her disappointment with her studies. In her opinion, studying a programming language at university is not cool at all. A whole year is spent on something that can be learned in courses and webinars in a matter of months. Also in the video, Irina shares her observations about the feasibility of obtaining a diploma from the point of view of a career as a programmer. Perhaps the girl expresses a subjective point of view, but this video is worth watching if only to make sure that there are problems with burnout not only among staff members, but also among students.

Foreign freelance exchanges for programmers and earnings abroad. Not Upwork

If there are problems with employment, for many programmers, working as a freelancer is an excellent option. If you are a student, a young mother, or simply not yet ready to leave your current job, the freelance exchange will be exactly the place where you can get your first money as a developer. The most famous freelance exchange is, of course, Upwork. But you shouldn’t give up other platforms either. Job orders with good pay can be found on other services. If you want to earn $30 or more per hour with your programming skills, we recommend spending a few minutes watching this video.

Benefits for programmers and IT workers when immigrating to Germany 2020

If you are considering relocating to Germany, one of the easiest relocation options is the Blue Card, a preferential quota for highly qualified specialists from non-EU countries. What criteria must a programmer meet to receive a blue card? What to do if you do not meet these requirements, but really want to live and work in Germany? The author of this video will give you the answer to these and other pressing questions. As it turns out, finding a well-paid job in Germany for a developer is much easier than in many other countries.
