Courses
These are the videos I sell here on my site. Small, focused, well-made and to the point. I hope you love them as much as I loved making them.
I've built my reputation over the years for creating solid, informative content that you enjoy watching, and I'll never give up on that vision.
Some of these course were ported over from my publishing site, bigmachine.io, but I decided start hosting them here because I'm changing format a bit.
The New Format
I find many online courses to be far, far too long. Just get to the point, please, and let me download the video without a ton of ceremony.
To that end, new courses (2025 and beyond) will be 90 minutes or less. If you subscribe, you can stream/download them here. If you by them outright, you can download the video file along with the code.
PostgreSQL Fundamentals
You'll learn the basics of SQL and databases using PostgreSQL and you'll have the time of your life doing it. We use a real set of data: the analysis data from Cassini's flybys of Enceladus. There might actually be life up there and you're going to query the data to find out!
Take Off With Elixir
Learn the high-powered, scalable, functional language that is taking the programming world by storm. Elixir is will change the way you write code! This video has been deprecated - I need to do some fixes to get it back up to speed.
The Missing CS Degree
Don't have a Computer Science degree and wish that you did? I got you friend! In this production, which is ongoing, I'll show you all the good things you need to know to bolster your CS knowledge.
