Description: The Stack Overflow culture needs to be fixed. The overall gatekeeping & elitism in computer science & programming - as a whole - needs to be fixed. I just see it more on Stack Overflow than anywhere else. There's a lot more to be said on the matter. I could be more clear in some areas - like not all people on Stack Overflow are like this. So if you're one of the good ones on Stack Overflow and you're watching this, don't come after me. Go after the folks in your community that ARE like this. But to be honest, at the end of the day I don't care what you say. I don't care if you try to justify it. There's a problem with gatekeeping in CS that turns off a lot of people and make us all look bad. It's annoying and downright unacceptable. And anyone who does it, I will call every single one of y'all out for it. And this isn't some cancel culture crap - this is calling out BS that needs to be FIXED, not cancelled. Let me finish off by saying this - there are a lot more good, encouraging folks in computer science than bad. Don't let those negative individuals discourage you from getting into coding. We will get back to coding in the next video. #FixStackOverflow ------------------------ 🐱‍🚀 GitHub: github.com/forrestknight 🎥 Twitch: twitch.tv/forrestknight 🐦 Twitter: twitter.com/forrestpknight 📸 Instagram: instagram.com/forrestpknight 👨‍💻 My Coding Gear: My NAS Server: amzn.to/3brqO7b My Hard Drives: amzn.to/3aKetMi My Main Monitor: amzn.to/3siQfPa My Second Monitor: amzn.to/3keHT84 My Standing Desk: amzn.to/3boAcbC My PC Build: bit.ly/my-coding-gear My AI GPU: amzn.to/3uvmUmz 🦌 Tranquil: bit.ly/tranquilcompany 📓 Learning Resources: My Favorite Machine Learning Course: bit.ly/coursera-forrest Open Source Computer Science Degree: bit.ly/open-source-forrest Python Open Source Computer Science Degree: bit.ly/python-open-source Solid for Algorithms & Coding Interviews (use code "forrest"): bit.ly/algoexpert-forrest Udacity to Learn Any Coding Skill: bit.ly/udacity-forrest 🔧Coding Tools: The Best Linux Server Hosting: bit.ly/linode-forrest
