Channel Update: The Holidays and Beyond

Its been about 3 weeks since I started really pushing my material on Steemit and the associated platforms of the Steem blockchain. Prior to this, I was mainly using the Steem blockchain as I would any other social media platform: for promotion. I realized in these past few weeks that Steemit really is less about promotion and more about creating something of value for the community. It was in this realization that I found myself making more videos then I normally would. I first started my blog/channel for personal reasons but what drives me to create content more then anything these days are the kind comments and thirst for knowledge of the subscribers on YouTube and the readers on Steem.

With the Holiday approaching, I wanted to make a quick little post expressing my gratitude to the readers and curators here on steem. Without any of you, I would not be making as much content nor would I be striving for top shelf quality in both my content and presentation. For your words of encouragement and countless up-votes I am eternally grateful and I hope that you continue to find my content to be enlightening and entertaining.

I will be taking a short break for the holiday. When I get back I will be aiming to make multivideo projects for Rust; I have a few ideas already (a text editor, an operating system, a terminal emulator, a symbolic mathematics system etc). These projects may be too ambitious for a small educational channel but i'd like to think that I will be able to pull them off in a way that is interesting. After the Rust videos conclude, I will be turning backwards to do a few projects in Go, Elixir and Elm before moving onto the next programming language ( I am looking forward to doing a Phoenix tutorial for Elixir because of the changes from 1.2 to 1.3). The current contenders for the next language that I want to cover include, Scala, Kotlin, Dart, Clojure, ReasonML, and F#. I will probably be holding a bunch of different polls to decide which language to look at next so look forward to them.

Anyways, stay safe this holiday and as always keep coding.
