Amazing Developers On YouTube (GitHub Repo)

This repository contains a curated list of YouTube channels of interest to developers. The list is split into English and non-English sections. Resources in the English section include tutorial, informational, live coding, software entertainment, competitive programming, interview preparation, up and coming, and retired channels. The Tutorials section alone has links to over 60 tutorial channels. You may have to have a little hunt around in the lists to find channels specifically geared to your topic of interest (say, Python, or Web Development) but it’s a great place to start.

The non-English sections include Russian, Hindi, Turkish, and Italian channels.

What the f*ck Python!

Some features of Python might not be obvious at first. This Github repository contains examples of these features, explanations for how they work, and other interesting tidbits about the language.

A good example of the sort of thing this repository deals with can be found in “Strings can be tricky sometimes”:

>>> a = "wtf" >>> b = "wtf" >>> a is b True >>> a = "wtf!" >>> b = "wtf!" >>> a is b False
