Waching daily Apr 25 2018

Hey what happen panda??, welcome to Revientor Reborn, this is a tutorial of the basic Autopilot of Falcon BMS

The autopilot have two different mode to my, the basic and the advanced, the last one is more for other type of missions related to AG

night strike, low fly level,

there is no auto-throttle, for that you are in charge to manage the speed

the autopilot modes are, keep altitude, keep pitch (attitude) and keep roll, inside that 3 mode are sub-modes, follow a heading, keep the heading in the ap on moment, or follow a waypoint

this is the main panel of the AP, now in this moment I have the AP keeping altitude and following a waypoint

the left switch, is the Roll switch and the right one is the pitch switch,

in the roll switch you have the up position to select a heading, you set that heading with the HSI HDG knob

loo the two white dots in the top i move them with the knob

in this moment the AP will go to the East heading

when in this mode the AP only use 30º of roll (bank)

in the middle position the AP will only keep the attitude on the moment that you active the ap

if you are with 30º of roll the ap will keep that 30º if you are with 0º the ap will keep the heading

the down option will follow the way-point selected

now with the ap in hdg the plane is going to 090º

as you can see this is 30º in theory and the speed is controlled by the pilot

there are a few limits, I think this roll si about 45º but the manual say 30º I will trust in it

there are a few limites, in the actitud mode If I set the roll in 60º, it will capture the roll, I set up now to follow the waypoint,

and now the AP will turn to the closes way to the waypoint

with 60º you can capture the roll, but more than 60º will not work

0 to 60º to capture the roll attitude

if the plane if following a heading or waypoint it will use only 30º

that switch is already done, follow a heading or keep the roll or follow a waypoint

the next switch is the pitch, the upper position is to keep the altitude, if you are in FLT100 the AP will keep it,

the down position will keep the attitude if you are in a pitch of 10 the ap will keep that pitch

the capture of the altitud or pitch will not perfect if you there is a limits there, again it the number 60, if you are up 60º of pitch the ap will not work

the altitude or attitude caption will not be perfect if you are going hi or low with a speed greater than 2000 feet/min , also the altitude always have a precision of +-100feet

when the ap is engaged the ap will use at maxi -0,5Gs to 2Gs no more

if now I set the ap in attitude and follow a desired heading

look the 2Gs factor in the hud

that is the limit and the ap play with it to keep altitude or what ever

the AOA is important as a limit also, when there is more than 5º I have now around 2,5º the AP will not capture the altitude or pitch perfectly

you can keep the ap on and use the stick

you can move the stick and the AP will follow your command in roll and will keep it is no hdg or wy is selected

in the altitude case, you can go to other altitude but the plane will recover the previous one

if you want to change the altitude with out turn of the ap, you can use two ways, tun off/on the ap, or the best one use the paddle switch in your stick

that will force the deactivation of the ap, and when release will activate it again and will capture the new altitude

here for example I did it 20.8 is the altitude, and you can see the ap recovered the ne altitude 20.8

other think is follow a route, this waypoint, with the icp set the autowaypoint to change to the next one

you can check my icp tutorials, and now the plane will go to that waypoint and when reached will change to the next one

look the plane go now to the next waypoint

there are a few limitation you can read them in screen now, those limitation do not allow activate the autopilot

I hope you liked the tutorial I see you in the next video, be happy and subscribe!!!

Firefighter | How I got my job & where I'm going | Part 2 | Khan Academy - Duration: 6:29.

I'm Ky-ree Toadvine, I'm 25 years old,

and I'm a firefighter.

I graduated high school in 2009,

from Crenshaw High School,

and I was initially going to Cal Poly Pomona

for mechanical engineering.

I was pursuing that for a while,

thinking I wanted to do something mechanical.

It didn't really necessarily work out,

because I could tell by the way

that my performance was

that I wasn't very passionate about it.

So I decided to dial things back a little bit

and go take different classes at a community college.

And at that time when I was looking up classes,

I actually had a personal emergency happen,

not to me, but someone dear to me,

that required the response of firefighters

and transport to a hospital.

That's when I realized that,

what type of job they have.

They have something that was dynamic,

something that was always changing,

and it just required you to be able to

have a working knowledge and skill set

that isn't, that doesn't require you

to just sit at a desk,

but also requires you to be able to

continuously think in many different ways,

and adapt as the times come.

And that's when I knew that

that was something that I wanted to do.

That was along the lines

of what I wanted to do with the rest of my life.

So the steps needed to become a firefighter would be

to first have your high school diploma or an equivalent,

to have your EMT certification

and be at least 18 years old.

Once you meet those requirements,

then you can apply to many different departments;

larger departments mostly.

If you would like to open up that,

if you would like a wider array of departments

to be able to apply to, for example to smaller departments,

then you would need something like a fire academy,

some smaller departments would like for you

to be a paramedic as well.

So I enrolled in community college,

took my Emergency Medical Technician class,

and it teaches you the basics

for basic life-saving skills basically.

You can, it certifies you to do basic things

like take blood pressures, and respond to emergencies,

and gets you ready mentally, especially,

to be able to to respond to these incidents

and know the tools that you have

on board of the ambulance,

so that you can use, you can utilize them effectively

to actually respond to these emergencies.

After I finished my Emergency Medical Technician class,

I wanna find a job that does emergency transports

with another fire department

within the city of Los Angeles.

I continued to work there for two years,

and at that point,

I gained experience

and responded to many different emergencies,

whether it be a gun shot wound victim,

a stabbing victim, or just someone

who needs to be transported from a hospital

to another hospital.

Those are called inter-facility transports

versus an emergency medical transport.

That gave me loads of experience

doing the inter-facility transports

and the emergency transports.

The emergency transports gave me the,

I would say, poise and knowledge

to be able to use the tools and knowledge that I have

that I gained from my Emergency Medical Technician class

to respond to different emergencies,

and an inter-facility transport

gave me loads of experience with just dealing with people,

just being able to make sure

that I'm a people person,

and that really lets you know

if you're cut out for this job.

The Fire Academy was pretty rigorous.

We had, every day that we went in,

we worked 10 hour days for four days, sometimes five,

where we come in for an extra day for a few hours

to get more practice on whatever tools

that we needed to get more practice on.

During those days we will start each day

with physical fitness.

So we would go into the gym that we had,

and we would do whatever training regimen

the cadre had for us.

We would do that for an hour, hour and a half,

two hours tops,

and then we would get that part of the day done,

we'd set up for the rest of the day as well,

and then get into whatever training

that we may have had.

For example, firefighter survival,

which is making sure that we keep our cool

and that we're able to get ourselves

out of entanglements or collapse,

or know what to do when we can't get ourselves out

to put out that Mayday call.

Every fire department has a test,

and an interview that you must pass

in order to become an entry level firefighter

with that department.

So different fire departments have different tests,

and they're geared towards different things as well.

Some tests may have basic math and English on it,

and some may go a little more in depth to other things

that the department may want to

gear their hiring towards,

or to gear the type of people

that they want to hire towards.

So once you graduate the academy,

then you start your probationary year,

and at that point, you start to learn the different tools

and the different tools and tactics

that you need for fire suppression efforts.

You also have to continue to train

on the things that you learned in academy,

for example, throwing ladders,

and what we call phase testing,

which is actually taking some of the things you've learned

while during the academy,

and actually doing them.

The growth opportunities are vast.

You can go into pretty much anything.

If someone wanted to be an emergency dispatcher

and see what that was like,

they can go into the dispatch arena

and become a dispatcher for a while.

If you wanted to be a fire inspector,

you could be an inspector.

If you wanna be a paramedic, you could be a paramedic.

If one day you wanna become a captain,

then of course that takes a larger skill set

than maybe the rest of the professions,

but then you'll have to continue to make sure

that you're as studious as possible

to pass that captain's test,

and also pass that captain's interview to become a captain.

And then there are two ranks of captain as well.

If you wanted to go even higher than that,

to become a chief,

then you can do that as well later on in your career.

So the life of a firefighter

is pretty much a long learning process.

As long as you're career,

you will be learning something new almost every day.

My advice to people just starting out

trying to become firefighters

is to go as hard as you possible can,

get as much under your belt as you possible can.

Myself personally, I did everything I could

to make myself stand out,

and I also did everything I could

to make sure that that interview went well.

For example, when I was a CPR instructor,

I did that so that I can hone

or perfect my speaking skills for the interview.

And I believe that helped me tremendously.

You have to recognize your own weaknesses,

and you have to fix it or capitalize off of it.

Customer Success Manager | My educational choices | Part 4 | Khan Academy - Duration: 6:18.

I was pretty nerdy in high school,

I think it's safe to say.

I was always playing Dungeons and Dragons

and stuff like that

and video games.

But I

knew that

I wanted to do something

involved in tech

but I wasn't sure what.

So I started off as a computer science major.

I was a computer science major for four days.

(laughs)

I went to the Rochester Institute of Technology

which is a great tech school,

great computer science school,

had lots of different options

and programs which are really cool,

but I realized that I did not want to spend

my days staring at a computer screen.

I really like working with people

too much for that.

And my main focus, I want to be with people.

But also I knew that I wanted a little something

with computers and technology

because that had always been something

that really interested me.

I stayed at RIT for one semester.

For the rest of the semester,

I focused more on liberal arts

so that I could kind of try to understand

what I wanted to do.

But then I realized I do not need to pay

this much money for a tech school

where I'm focusing on liberal arts.

What am I doing?

So since I realized that I wasn't really sure

what I wanted to do next,

I took a little bit of time off.

And during this time I realized

that I'd incurred a little bit of debt

already from college.

So I got a job in order to help pay that off.

And from there, I essentially worked

and went to school throughout the rest

of my college years.

Sometimes going to school part time

and focusing a little more on the work,

and sometimes working almost, you know,

just two days a week or something like that.

Whatever I could afford when my coursework

got really heavy.

And I wound up going to Monroe Community College.

Thank goodness for the community colleges.

They're amazing.

And figuring out there I had

some really great mentors

and discovered that I had really strong focuses

that I loved in communication and sociology.

And then after college, I was actually offered

a full time position at the retail store

that I'd been working at

kind of throughout my years in college.

So, I wound up taking that position.

I was working at Abercrombie and Fitch

for a little while.

That was a good experience.

It taught me a lot about how to manage people,

about how to manage expectations with customers,

about answering to yourself and having your own

kind of things that you have to get done

in a day,

and then getting done with them actually.

Being accountable.

So that was really valuable.

But after I was there for about another year,

I decided I would rather pursue

other opportunities and from there

I wound up applying to user testing.

Community college was a great experience

for me.

It was an opportunity for me to explore

different fields of interest without incurring

a huge sum of debt at the same time

because private school options were seriously

just going to be draining my money at that point

and I didn't know what I wanted to do

in such a way that I could really focus

all of my time and energy into it.

So that gave me that kind of flexibility

in order to discover stuff

that I was interested in.

Yeah, there are a few things that I think

I would do differently.

I definitely

at one point I was meeting with a,

like,

some academic counselor

and they had told me that the prerequisites

for the major that I was in had changed

and so I would actually need

an additional semester

and I thought that I was going to be

eligible to graduate at the end

of that semester.

I was very upset.

I actually took the next semester off

because I was so upset and I said,

"I'm just going to focus

on earning money right now."

I probably wouldn't do that going back.

You know, just get it done.

I would get it done a little faster next time.

But it was also good experience to kind of go out

and have real working experience.

That was good.

Other mistakes that I made?

I don't know.

I think overall it was a pretty good experience.

I would think more seriously

about what I want to do longer term earlier on

because that's something that I hadn't given

a ton of thought to.

I just figured I like computers.

I like tech.

I'm going to take computer science.

So that was an expensive mistake, I suppose.

Two people who I really consider mentors out there,

shout out to Todd Sedano.

You rock.

Shout out to Natasha Chen.

You also rock.

These are professors of mine who I've had

at different schools that I've been to

who both taught me a lot about

analyzing what it is

that I want to be doing.

And

about

putting in work

in order to actually get pay off

after the fact.

They taught me a lot about that.

And they taught me about what it means

to kind of

go get what I want.

They both highly encouraged me to apply

to something that was outside

of the city that I lived in.

So mentorship I think is a super important thing

for anyone.

If at all possible,

find someone who you respect,

who you find it's relatively easy to talk to,

who is interesting to you,

and ask them if they'll grab coffee with you.

Ask them if you can come in on their office hours

if they're a professor.

Go spend time with those people

if they're a little older and know a little more.

Ask them about how they came to where they're at

and see if there's anyone in their network

who they would connect you with because

it's a really important thing.

Honestly, who you know is a huge part

of getting any job.

And you know people.

Even if you don't think you know people,

you know someones who knows someone.

So, you know, ask around

and

go looking for stuff.

Even if you don't know someone

who's at a company,

still apply

and see if you can get a recommendation

from one of your mentors.

Because maybe they are well known

within the community or something like that.

Salon Owner | How I got my job & where I'm going | Part 2 | Khan Academy - Duration: 12:30.

My story of becoming a hairstylist is pretty interesting.

In my senior year of high school,

I had applied colleges, went through the whole process

that you're like supposed to do

and got accepted to a lot of colleges

that I was very proud to be accepted to.

I guess I was raised rather traditionally

in the sense that like, go to school,

get good grades, go to a great college,

get a good job and you know, live happily ever after.

And I never really entertained anything

that didn't a require college education.

So I had been cutting hair all throughout high school

on all of my friends and playing and just having a good time

and I never actually thought about it as a career path

because it was never brought up

to me that it could be a career path.

And my perspective was, there's $7 haircut salons

in the town that I grew up in

and then there was this one really nice salon

that I had found my freshman year of high school

and started going to and I loved it,

it was the most amazing thing ever.

But like that was it, you could either work

in this small salon in this small town

or you can work in an ever smaller salon in this small town.

So it just never crossed my mind.

Then I'm reading this article and I

was just like, you gotta be kidding me,

somebody is charging $800 for a haircut?

That's crazy.

And she's doing every celebrity and it was incredible.

So I went home and I did a lot of research

and I found out that she was not the only one

and that, you know, she wasn't like a fluke situation

and I decided right then and there,

I was like that's what I wanna do.

Like that's definitely what I wanna do.

And I told my mom, I was like hey I'm not gonna

go to college anymore, I'm gonna go to hair school

and become a hairstylist and move out to Los Angeles.

And that went over really well.

Which it actually did though,

my parents took it very very well.

So I started looking into the process of what

I would have to do in order to get myself on that path.

So I'm at my salon in this small town in New Jersey

and I'm talking with my stylist, and I was like hey,

this is what I wanna do, I have no idea where to begin,

it's not like this information is

not readily available on the internet at all.

So like what do I do?

You're in the industry, you're the best hairstylist

I've ever met, so what do I do?

And she was like you have to

go to Vidal Sassoon, hands down.

So I went home and I did a bunch of research,

found out that the only Sassoon academy

in the country is in Santa Monica,

and pretty much made up my mind that I was gonna go there.

It's a nine month program in California,

it's a nine to five job, so essentially

you're there from nine to five

and it's difficult to have a job outside of it.

And so I needed, not only to cover the cost of tuition

but I needed to cover my cost of living for nine months

in Santa Monica, California which is not necessarily

the easiest thing to do and I was very fortunate

to have a family that supported me.

Once you graduate from the cosmetology program

at any school, you have to go and get your license. [Text on screen: Licensing requirements vary by state but most require the following: Be 16 years of age or older, have a high school diploma or GED, complete a state licensed cosmetology program, pass a written and/or practical exam]

So it's a board certified license,

so every state is gonna have a state board of cosmetology,

so the California State Board of Cosmetology and Barbering.

And you have to go and take this test,

there's a written test and then there's a practical exam.

So they train you all throughout school

to get through that test.

It's pretty simple, if you pay attention

in school it's pretty simple, you'll get through it.

And then after that you're licensed

immediately on the spot and you're hireable.

To get hired in a salon you essentially,

you're gonna take your resume,

which at that point in your career

is probably very limited and/or next to nothing

other than whatever school you went to.

And you're gonna go around to

different salons that you're interested in,

I would suggest touring salons first,

show them that you're interested in,

you know, seeing if it's even a good fit for you

before you just drop off your resume.

Because every salon's not gonna be a good fit for you.

So I was fortunate enough while I was in Sassoon

to actually go around to a bunch of salons with a big group

and we toured a bunch and we figured out,

you know, everyone went down a different path

but everyone was able to figure out like,

oh this seems like a good fit for me

or this seems like a good fit for me.

And I would definitely suggest anyone who's

at that point in this career to do,

you wanna interview the team you're gonna work for

just as much as they're gonna interview you.

I went in to Sally Hershberger, dropped off my resume,

was told that they're not currently hiring

but that they would contact me back

in the future if they ever were,

and I was walking out to my car and I got a phone call.

And so I picked it up and it was the manager

and she was like hey, did you just drop off your resume?

And I was like I did, she's like can you

come back up for an interview?

So I was like oh my god, this is the best day ever.

And I ran back upstairs, sat down for an interview

and then she had me, the interview went fantastic

and then she had me come back in for a work trial

which is something that's very common in this industry.

Which essentially means that you're going

to be scheduled for anywhere from a day to a week

that you're gonna come back into the salon

and shadow one of the assistants

or apprentices at that salon.

And it's pretty much them seeing how you work with the team,

whether you're a good fit for the team

and essentially what your work ethic is

and how hard you hustle,

especially in a city like Los Angeles.

After I did my work trial, it just kind of never ended,

I just kept coming back and kept coming back

and four years later I was still there.

When you become a hairstylist,

you have a couple of different options.

You can open your own salon, which some people choose to do,

you can go and work, depending on what state you work in

because every state has different laws

but a lot of states allow booth renting,

which means that you will come in to a salon location,

they'll have stations set up and you pay rent essentially,

a monthly rent for a station.

And you're responsible for everything,

you wanna bring clients in, you have to find those clients,

you have to keep those clients,

essentially they're just giving you a box to work out of.

Or you can work in a salon that's commission based,

which means you're part of a team, you're part of a culture,

you're part of the entire business.

And within that there's certain things

that you can expect from the salon

but there's also a lot of responsibility that you have.

So any good salon business is going to

run itself strategically which means

they're gonna have some sort of system in place

to determine how every client that walks through the door

because of the marketing or sales techniques

that the salon has done, they're gonna have a system

in place to make sure that they send those clients

to the stylists that are gonna keep them, right?

So every salon is different but there's different things

that will happen behind the scenes

that's gonna track, you know, client retention rates.

So when you're just starting out in the industry,

in order to even like get into,

or if you start out at a salon that is like

a team environment and commission based salon,

you're gonna have to essentially

like earn your way for a little while,

you're gonna have to prove yourself.

That's gonna mean that you have to go out

and sell yourself and bring clients in.

So you are always a salesperson in this industry

because every client that sits down,

it is an opportunity to keep them

but that doesn't insure that you will,

so what things are you doing to

make sure that you're keeping them?

And that's the sales aspect of it,

you're going to be making sure obviously that

you have a clear understanding of what they want,

they have a clear understanding of what they're gonna get

because those two things don't always line up

in our industry unfortunately.

That they're actually happy when they walk out the door,

that you put the right steps in place

to make sure that they're gonna come back,

that they're gonna come back as frequently

as they need to to take care of it

because at the end of the day while hair

is very much aesthetic and just the way you look,

it needs to be healthy, so there is a little bit

of a doctoring part of it as well and making sure,

you know, you can make somebody's hair look really good

but that doesn't matter if it's falling out, right?

If they don't have any hair left

at the end of that experience.

In my opinion, every step of the way

before you're even actually dealing

with a client, you're selling yourself.

Whether you're out trying to meet new clients

and bring them in, you have to show them why

you're worth even coming to in the first place.

Once they're in your chair, why are you worth staying with.

Once they're out of your chair,

why are you worth coming back to.

Because everyone in the city,

they're all competing for the same group of clients

and obviously like there's different levels of salons

but there's thousands of salons at every level.

So at any given moment you're competing with

an endless amount of competition

and you have to constantly remind your clients

why they need to come back to you and that's sales.

So as a stylist, you're not very limited,

it is so vast what you can do in this industry

and it's really gonna depend on what you like

and what's important to you.

And what I mean by that is certain career paths as a stylist

are going to keep you in a nine to five,

which is amazing if that's important to you.

Another career path could take you around the world

and you could have, you know, no schedule

and you could be off for three months

and then you could work, you know,

a year and a half straight on a series

of different movies or photo shoots.

As a stylist, you can do anything

from working behind the chair

to becoming a salon manager and a stylist

to becoming a session stylist,

which means that you're gonna be working

on photo shoots sporadically.

You can work on movie sets,

you can become a spokesperson for a product line,

you could become an educator,

you could do a mixture of all of those things.

It's pretty endless what the possibilities are,

just going to matter what makes you happy.

Ideally what I'd love to see for myself is I wanna see

this company grow to a multi-location salon.

Because the whole process has been so new to me

and it's ever evolving, I'm not sure

if I see myself owning it in 10 years,

if I see it being sold and I'm so open

to what that path is going to hold,

that defining it is not necessarily

something that I wanna do because

learning everything I've learned along

the way has just taught me

like an endless amount of knowledge,

like that I never thought that I would obtain.

I could see myself still owning, you know,

all of these salons and continuously growing them.

I could see it being sold to a bigger corporation

and you know, whether staying on like the team

and you know, still working within the salon locations,

I could see myself starting another company

because if there's one thing that

I've learned through this whole process

it's how much I really like building something.

I love that beginning process, I love working with people,

I love figuring out what gets people going

and you know, really building a strong team

and I think that the most incredible time

to do that is in the beginning,

so I do have a love for like starting a company.

So it's hard to define, I tend to find myself

focused more on what I can get done

in the next year or two years.

I know that in 10 years I wanna be happy,

I wanna be financially secure and I wanna be able

to have the freedom to decide what I wanna do

and I'm okay if that changes.

So my advice to anyone who wants

to become a hairstylist would be

to figure out which path you wanna go down

and then you're gonna have to go to hair school.

I would suggest going to Sassoon or Toni and Guy

if it's even within the realm of possibility for you

because the education that you're gonna get there

is unsurpassed by none, or surpassed by none.

It's phenomenal, it's gonna set you up for success,

it's value, it's deeply valued within the industry,

so any salon you walk into anywhere in the country

is going to know that you have something

of value to bring to the team,

without even having to hear you speak

or getting to know you at all,

they know that you have some thing valuable.

So if that's at all a possibility for you,

I would say do anything and everything

you could to make that happen.

And then after that, I would say you really just have

to figure out what's important to you

because as soon as you do that and you have your license,

you can do anything you like.

District Representative | How I got my job & where I'm going | Part 2 | Khan Academy - Duration: 6:46.

My history really begins when I moved

to the United States from Venezuela in fifth grade.

During that time, Hugo Chavez had come into power

in Venezuela, and my mother and father didn't feel

comfortable about what my safety situation was going

to look like in the following years,

so I moved in with my mother in Virginia.

At that time, I didn't know any English.

I didn't really know how things worked socially,

so something as silly as asking a girl that I liked

to hang out ended up with me asking her

to grab coffee in fifth grade.

So as I went through middle school and high school,

I started getting more of an idea of what I needed

to do in class, for the language,

and socially I started making some friends.

I personally didn't know what the plan was

or what people were supposed to do.

My father in Venezuela was a doctor

and my mother had studied education,

however she didn't know how the system worked here

specifically, so it wasn't something

that we talked about at home.

However, my friends at the time,

they were all planning for college.

It was a very affluent area, and I think I was very

privileged and lucky to be able to be around them.

I didn't come from particular wealth,

but being around them gave me that drive

to say I want to be with my friends.

Where are they going?

They're going to college.

Where are they going to college?

And I ended up attending James Madison University

in Virginia, and I studied philosophy, I studied sociology,

and psychology as my major finally.

And I personally think that the sociology and philosophy

that I studied in college was really helpful

just in taking a step back and seeing the different

perspectives and trying to really step

into other people's shoes and see how,

whether or not you agree with them,

they arrived at that perspective

through their own looking glass,

and that means their experiences throughout their life.

So no matter what, you can't be angry at somebody.

You can only help to understand it

and see how you can be of assistance.

When I graduated college, I really hadn't made a plan

for what would happen after.

I wasn't going to grad school.

I wanted to take some time.

However, with psychology if you don't start

in your internships to plan for grad school

and start applying, there aren't really a lot of options

after graduating if you're an undergrad.

So I went back home to live with my mother.

So I ended up staying on her couch.

And it was great to see my mom and my sisters again more,

but it gave me a little bit more drive to say

I think it's time for me to go somewhere else

and not really have a safety net,

maybe not look for a job that a family member

or a friend was gonna give me,

but really look for something that gave me more meaning.

So I moved to Los Angeles at the time.

My girl friend from college was living here,

so that made the transition a lot easier.

I originally moved with $400.

After I bought the ticket that's what I had left.

So it was a little tough at first, but I found a job

working at Camino Nuevo Charter Academy

doing not behavior interventions at first.

It was a teacher assistant position.

But I worked with my boss and kinda sold them

on some of the things that I thought that we could do

for the kids to improve the time that the kids

spent in the classrooms and maybe to decrease

some of the time that the kids were spending outside

of the classroom.

So I was able to transition that role to a teacher assistant

and behavior intervention assistant.

After Camino Nuevo, my boss, who was very helpful

in letting me define what my role was there,

he told me after the first year and a half,

he said look, if you don't leave this year,

I'm gonna have to fire you.

You need to find a path, and you need to start looking

for something and I don't think that it will be education

at this level, I think that you can work more on the policy

aspect than kinda planning at that larger level.

So he introduced me to his previous

public relations job, the company called Sorrell Associates,

and I started a temporary position internship with them,

getting to work on all different types

of issues including education,

but whether it's land use and access campaigns

and communications, crisis management.

So I really got to sample a lot of different issues

on the private sector.

After about seven months, one of my bosses there

got a call from a previous vice president

who were at their company who was now the district director

so the manager for a legislative office.

And she said, hey, do you have any people,

any interns there, anyone in the office that you think

would be a good fit to do outreach, that is bilingual?

And I was recommended and I went on my first interview.

Obviously it was assisted and I think they were cheering

for me, so I was offered the job after

talking a little bit about what I did at the school.

District representatives on average

did not need to study or particularly study

political science or sociology.

For that matter, there's no test to get in.

There's no application other than the job application.

There's not certification.

But the general track that most people take there

is once they begin to get involved with politics,

they volunteer on campaigns, then engages

as unpaid volunteers first and really get

to grow with candidates.

And then when candidates transition into elected office,

they're bringing some of the people

that were essential to their team.

For district representatives, there are three or four

paths that I see are common.

A lot of district representatives will go to law school

or pursue a higher education degree,

usually tend to veer towards law,

to then go into public service or public policy.

A lot of other reps will stay in their jobs.

A lot of reps will transition to community organizations

or companies that they had worked with and they got

to know really well, and what they did

and it sparked something for them.

And a lot of them will just kinda burn out

and take a little bit of time to figure out

what they want to do next.

District Representative | My budget & planning for the future | Part 3 | Khan Academy - Duration: 8:46.

My name is Fernando Morales.

I'm a District Representative

at State Senator Ben Allen's office,

and I make $43,000.

Do I feel financially secure?

I don't

I don't know that I could say

that I am financially secure right now.

However,

I still don't know if I'm ready to trade

some of the experiences that I have

that I choose to spend that money

that if I saved

would actually make me financially secure at this time.

Just because I hadn't had those options before.

As I've started making a little bit more money,

I realized I started to love my city a lot more.

As I got to explore.

And I think that at this point, being 27,

the smart thing is to start planning for that future.

But I also want to get some perspective,

because what am I saving for

and what do I want my retirement to look like,

and where do I want to go?

And what do I want my life after

my career at some point to look like?

I think I want to start finding that out too.

So I hope to start saving soon

and I'm not financially secure now.

But I'm doing some exploratory work.

And I think it's important as well.

My finances have changed

in a positive way,

but that margin that I had for myself

kind of spendable cash in a certain way

has just been taken up by other things.

When I first arrived in Los Angeles,

I didn't have a car.

As I mentioned, I moved with just $400.

But I also had no reoccurring expenses.

So now that

I have a job that requires

that I have a car,

it's really hard to do my job with just public

transportation,

even though I'm a big fan of it.

I had to pay for my car,

I have to pay for insurance,

there are other bills

maybe need my internet to be a little bit faster.

Things like that,

things just start piling on.

So I'd say I have about the same amount of money

at the end of the month

as I did when I first started working.

My student loans are a

whole other deal,

so currently I have about $33,000 in student loans.

I haven't always been the best with my student loans.

After you graduate, you usually have a period of about

six months to a year

in which you don't, you're not required to make payments.

And,

at first when I was unemployed, you can also

waive off paying during that time.

When I first graduated from college

and I started working,

I really didn't have a lot of a margin

of money leftover to pay my loans at that time

so I chose to forbear which is

pushing forward that responsibility.

Interest doesn't stop.

A lot of times just because you're pushing

that forward.

And it will

it will grow, and the more that

the amount that you owe grows,

the more that that interest will affect that.

Just like with your savings on the positive side,

it can also snow ball on the negative side, so

I think I'm just right back to where I was

when I graduated.

Debt wise from school.

It does help though

that

before I started paying

all the different loans for $5,000 here

$6,000 here,

and I couldn't see it all as one solid figure.

It was a lot easier for me to say,

I can't find them all, I'll take care of it later.

I'll deal with it tomorrow, or the next day

or the next month.

So I decided about a year ago to consolidate them all

into one amount [Text on screen: Debt consolidation is a great way to simplify debt and possibly negotiate a lower interest rate]

in one place, I can pay it all and

FedLoans,

.org or .gov

so that's definitely been helpful

as well as starting an income base program,

income base repayment,

and public service loan forgiveness.

So once I pay for 10 years in public service,

the entirety of my loans will be forgiven.

I have about $6,000 that I still owe for my car.

I bought it for

13,000 I think total with the fees

that come on top of just buying a car and license

and all of that.

So I'm, basically to the point in which

I can sell it,

and pay it completely off if i wanted to.

I have about

$3,000 total in credit card.

With my credit card expenditures,

they mostly come from travel.

I want to make sure that

once a year if not more,

I take some time to see a different part of the world

now that I can.

It's a lot of what I was mentioning earlier

about figuring out where I want to go

or what I want my retirement

down the line to look like.

So what I do is

if I have a 0% credit card,

I'll pay for my trip on that

and then throughout the year,

before I

leave said 0%,

which is an introductory rate,

I try to pay it all.

And then hopefully keep it at zero.

Sometimes life happens,

like when your car breaks down.

But I try to keep it at zero after that.

So the housing market in Los Angeles,

to me is so bad that

my ex-girlfriend and I

have been living together with for a year

after we broke up. [laughs]

Because

I mean, it's just such a great deal.

This is such a great deal.

We have good communication.

Things are good but,

that's usually not the situation

that a lot of people think whenever

you think about your ex-girlfriend.

You don't think roommate as well.

So I think that sheds a little light as to

how tough the housing situation is out there.

Annually, my income is roughly $43,000.

If you divide that by 12 you get my monthly

theoretical income, and that's

$3,330.

From there, my taxes are taken out.

And that is

$800 roughly.

But I'm happy to pay them because I understand

that's where my salary comes from as well.

Every month,

I get in my bank about

$2,700

and then I start taking out for rent which is $675,

my utilities of gas and water $75,

my TV and internet,

just internet

$40,

my cell phone is actually still under my mom's family plan,

so I'm very happy to not have to pay that,

my car is $200 to pay the loan that I took out

plus 120 to insure it,

150 for gas just from driving around,

and then I have reoccurring payments from applications

such as Spotify or Apple storage on my phone

that's $25,

and then I get into the funner spending.

So the discretionary spending.

And that's clothes,

which I allocate $200,

travel which I allocate $200 for

and then,

the biggest chunk of money that I end up spending per month

is actually on food,

restaurants and drinks with friends.

And that's about $850.

Which leaves me at the end of the month with

just about zero.

I spend everything that I make,

which is not

exactly

the smartest planning for now,

but it's something that I've come to enjoy.

And I think that I will make a plan to

transition some of that money that I'm spending on

drinks with friends and eating out,

maybe to put into savings in the near future.

Since I started working,

I realized that you make what you spend

to a certain degree unless you set,

hard

boundaries.

If you're not great at saving, like I am,

and you're committed to it,

and you don't want to spend that currently,

like if you're really set on doing that.

It could be the right thing for you,

or it could not be the right thing for you.

Right now, I'd rather travel than save some of that.

But,

you have to make sure that you set yourself for success

by enrolling in one of those programs

that takes out the money from your account

automatically whenever it's deposited,

and it goes directly to savings.

And then that way, when you get to then end of the month,

you're gonna think you're at zero,

and you're not even gonna think about it at one point.

Or you might be able to do that yourself.

But, I found out that I'm not very good at doing that.

So at some point, when I'm really set on doing that,

and really saving and

making that plan to whether

to invest or just keep it in savings,

I will start doing that as well.

Architectural Designer | How I got my job & where I'm going | Part 2 | Khan Academy - Duration: 4:13.

I did this class in high school called EAST,

where you kind of invent your own project

and then I started working in SketchUp,

which is a 3-D modeling program

and that's a little bit of how I kind of got interested.

We were making a rain garden so designing where

the planters go, really simple stuff,

but still kind of the beginning of that.

So, in college, I was learning a lot about general design,

which I think can be applied in multiple scales

and one of them is architecture.

So, I was mainly focused in architecture,

learning about how to make a space inhabitable,

how to make it feel good, how to make it interesting,

and just kind of have

the right proportions and seem correct.

Also, I think a lot of it was learning how to

defend your work and critique and things like that

because in the real world, obviously, it's like that

and you're always having to do that.

So, just learning how to concisely present your work

and then kind of defend it, as well,

'cause you're being creative and that's not always

the easiest thing to share and then get feedback about

that's not perfect.

My school offers a co-op program, so instead of it taking

four years to graduate from your undergrad, it takes five.

You spend a total of one year working at jobs

that are in line with your major

to get professional experience before you graduate.

So, it was very cool for me a, because I got to stop

paying tuition and make some money and also

it was important to realize what I would end up doing

and it kind of helped me to realize what I did want

and what I didn't want in terms of a job after I graduated.

The two jobs I worked at were good jobs but they were

a bit too corporate for me, personally, I think

and I was often just doing one repetitive task

over and over again and I didn't feel like

I was part of the whole process.

But it was a really good experience,

just as valuable to learn kind of what you might

not want to do than what you do what to do

and I was very excited to be working in the model shop

and with wood and things like that.

I stayed for an extra year and I got

my Masters in architecture.

So, in total it was six years of architecture school.

I'm not licensed, so I can't call myself an architect yet

and that takes time.

You have to go through tests and log hours

at your job in different categories.

To get licensed as an architect, you need to pass six tests

in California and they're on a rolling basis,

so once you start, you have to be committed to

finishing them all or else your tests will

start to diminish or go away

and then also on top of that, you need to log

what are called IDP hours.

So, there are different categories, like pre-design,

design development, construction administration

that you have to have a certain amount of hours logged

at your job that you're working at.

So, it's kind of showing that you have proper experience

to be able to stamp a drawing

and be held accountable for it.

Everyone says that you have to be good at math

to be an architect and I found that,

basic math, but it's not as math based as you would think.

It's more design based and feeling you know what fits where

and what's right than actually calculating out

crazy equations, especially now because we're working

on computers so much, a lot of the math aspects

and the hand drawing have kind of become less important.

Ten years from now, I'm not sure what it will be yet

but I wanna design something and have it come

totally from me and be signed off by me

and just kind of see it in reality.

That would be the coolest thing.

District Representative | What I do & how much I make | Part 1 | Khan Academy - Duration: 4:29.

My name is Fernando Morales,

I'm 27, and I'm a representative

for State Senator Ben Allen's office.

My main responsibilities, I would say

that the first one would be outreach,

and that's about 60% of my responsibilities in the office.

And that's going to community meetings,

whether it's a chamber meeting

or a neighborhood council or a homeowner's association,

hearing what the issues are there,

whether it's homelessness in Hollywood

or transportation in the mid-city area,

and really getting to have my hand

to the pulse of the community

so that I can communicate that to the senator.

A lot of the times, that involves speaking on his behalf

when he is in Sacramento for the legislative session.

So I get to be his proxy in many ways,

which is exciting and a little,

it drives a little anxiety when I have to public speak,

but I do enjoy doing that part of my job.

Another 30% of my responsibilities in the office,

I would say, are mostly administrative or clerical.

Whether it's planning or setting up logistics

for events, producing letters or certificates

for community members, whether it's a graduation,

Eagle Scouts, or whatever it may be,

making sure that I can complete that for those constituents.

The last 10% is staffing the senator,

which means attending with him

to different community events, letting him know

which community members have the questions

and the concerns, and making sure that he can address them

and go to them to get to, you know,

have some one-on-one time and hear them out.

No one day is the same at my job, and I tend to enjoy that.

Back when I was younger, I had this fantasy

of having this job in which I went to sleep

in a different place than where I woke up,

it was just constantly moving.

Little did I realize I could do that in the same place,

it's just every minute of the day,

and every different day is different regarding

which event I could attend.

The communities that I represent are so diverse

that there's just such a wide array

of issues and conversations, so I could be, at night,

at a gala for a non-profit, or, you know,

I could be at a neighborhood council meeting

talking up planning and some of the issues

that the constituents have been encountering there.

So there's a very wide range, and a lot of the times,

it leaks into nights and very early mornings, sometimes,

weekends, but I mean, it's all different,

so at least it never gets boring.

District representatives, on average,

make about anywhere from 35,000 dollars

to 50,000, 55,000 dollars.

In my particular case, I had some experience beforehand

in public relations, and I've been in this similar position

for about three years, one year of that

in the State Assembly, so my current salary

is about 43,000 dollars or so.

Whenever I was told I had the job,

I was asked what salary I was expecting

or what I would need,

and I actually significantly undershot them,

just from being paid hourly before.

I said look, I'll take 30,000,

and then, you know, they laughed for a second

and said, oh no, we were gonna give you 35,

we just thought you were gonna go higher.

So if I had been a little savvier,

I'm sure I coulda started up a little higher [laughs].

My job comes with great benefits

when it comes to healthcare, dental, and vision,

and, you know, it's not the most competitive pay,

so I think that is something that needs

to be taken into consideration as well.

Other than the benefits, there are some perks

to the job, and the perks would include having access

to certain people that know, and they're the specialists

of whatever field they're in.

You know, I could talk to a professor at UCLA

who's been doing groundbreaking research on neurobiology.

I could talk to a CEO of a tech company

in the Silicon Beach community that's growing.

At some point, I could talk to the Secretary of California,

Secretary of the State Alex Padilla, and I have.

And it's really exciting to be able

to hear directly from people that are affecting

that change in whatever it may be.

Customer Success Manager | What I do & how much I make | Part 1 | Khan Academy - Duration: 8:05.

My name is Nick Donovan.

I'm 28 years old and I'm a customer success manager

at User Testing.

I make $80K a year.

User testing is a company that specializes

in providing qualitative user feedback

for companies with apps and websites.

So that's a little bit complicated,

but essentially what we do is we allow big companies

to understand what users experiences are like

when they try using their apps and websites.

So for example, when you go to Amazon to buy something,

maybe there's a step in the process

that's really confusing,

and so you decide not to buy it.

Amazon wants that not to be the case,

so they purchase a subscription with User Testing

which allows them to see what their users are experiencing

and improve those processes.

So User Testing has a panel of testers

that exists all over the globe,

and in order to get feedback what we do is

we have each of those testers take what we call sessions.

And those are done using a screen recorder

on either their desktop computer or their mobile device

which will record what they're doing on their device,

as well as their thoughts that they're speaking aloud

during the session.

So that way we're getting feedback on not only

what it looks like when they're trying to click on things,

but also if they're running into an issue

they didn't know they were going to have,

they can speak their thoughts aloud

and say, "Oh this isn't what I expected,"

to make those pain points really clear.

Essentially User Testing is here in order to provide

companies with those insights into those users.

So as a customer success manager,

I'm here for a couple different reasons,

that our main focus here is to make sure

that our customers are always really happy

with the platform and the product and subscriptions

that they've purchased with us.

If they're really happy with us,

then it means that they're really sticky

and we're doing great work for them

in providing them valuable research.

And that means that they're going to come back

again next year and purchase again.

So really when it all boils down,

I'm here to help ensure that customers are renewing with us

and spending money that way.

My major responsibilities, as I'd said previously,

is essentially to ensure

that my customers are always healthy

which means that they're utilizing the product.

They are finding value in it.

That's really kind of what matters.

So in order to do that, I'll do partnership reviews

which is times when I'll go in and try to meet

with the executive stakeholders at my customers' companies,

and ensure that they're seeing the great value

that they're getting.

Beyond that we'll also be having

regular email correspondence,

monthly check-ins in order to make sure

that they're doing well,

phone calls.

I'll go visit them in person sometimes,

that's some of my favorite stuff to do on my job

is actually going and visiting really cool companies.

And then beyond that, I'm also responsible

for all renewal discussions.

So once a customer is done with their first year with us,

I'm responsible for talking with them

about their upcoming year subscription

and making sure they still want to stay on.

So projects for my role are a little varied.

Sometimes a project could be onboarding a new customer

and that would mean that I am working

with our professional services team or researchers

and project managers who want to make sure

that all our customers understand fully

how to utilize the platform.

So sometimes I'm focusing really on that

with newer customers.

Other times I'm putting out fires,

if there's a customer who had a really poor experience

for one reason or another,

I want to make sure that they understand that

that's not how we do business,

the usual typical experience

and helping them kind of reconnect and regroup,

so that we can do great stuff going forward.

Other times it's renewal discussions,

so figuring out what number is really going to work

for that customer and what actual package

is going to get them what they really need

in order to get those insights that they're looking for.

I make $80,000 a year,

Now that number is a little bit variable,

it tends shift based on a few different factors.

The main thing that I'm kind of graded on

and that can impact that

is whether or not my customers renew,

which is a great sign of a good customer success manager.

If I'm doing my job, they want to continue with us.

So customer success managers tend

to make around $80,000-ish.

It varies quite a bit just because custom success managers

and customer success as a field,

tends to be a newer field that's just kind of starting.

So a lot of different companies are figuring out

what the responsibilities of a customer success manager

should be and with that what the pay should be,

so that it really balances out.

There's a really broad window, I would say,

tends to make anywhere from $60k to $100k a year,

and still have a job.

So I'm making pretty much right in the middle there,

which is really great.

Started out making around $60k,

that improved because User Testing wanted to make sure

that everyone at the company was making industry standard

and so we've improved to this point.

And then from here for me to continue improving,

I need to make sure that my renewal numbers are good,

my customers are utilizing the product,

things that are normally expected of me

in my day-to-day so that,

it's pretty fitting I would say.

I had my first annual review last year and I

thought ahead and I planned and I came prepared

with all of the great renewable numbers that I had,

all the usage data,

so that I could show the positive impact

that I had had on the customers who I'd worked with,

and that was really good

and it was one of the factors that resulted

in me making a little more money.

So to be successful as a customer success manager

there are a few things that have to happen.

You have to be able to think strategically

long-term about customers.

A lot of times, there's some confusion over well

is customer success a sales role?

And it's not because in sales,

you're trying to sell as much as you can.

To be a great customer success manager,

you really need to think strategically,

long-term about your customers

and what will make the most positive impact for them.

So you really have to have their well-being in mind

if you're wondering about what mindset you have to have.

What that means kind of for the skill set

is to be able to look at, okay,

this is what a customer's hoping to accomplish,

this is how we can get them there.

Maybe it's a small package,

maybe it's something that they just need

to get off the ground.

And from there, maybe we are going to try out

some new different things.

And maybe they'll find a feature

that is bringing them a lot of value.

Great, we can bring them that.

We don't need to always be upselling,

we don't need to be charging as much as possible,

we don't need to be doing any of that.

We need to work with their budgets

that they're healthy and happy

and coming back again next year

and continuing to work with us,

'cause that's really what matters.

So one of the things that's really important

is being organized.

So like I'd said,

I'm managing a bunch of different customers.

Right now, I am managing about 60 customers,

which is a lot.

So that means multiple monthly touch points every day

and I need to be knowing

what these customers are doing.

So I need to know what their values are,

what they want to be achieving.

And with 60 different people

who I need to be keeping track of,

everything each of them are doing,

and some of them are teams of more than one people

so they have lots of different things

they're doing within each of their teams.

Organization is really key,

you need to be able to keep track of everything.

Beyond that,

being a personable person and being friendly

and not being nervous to go in

and have conversations with important key stakeholders

is a necessity.

You have to be able to be comfortable doing that.

Yeah, it's been great.

I've actually kind of become close with some of my customers

which is really nice to be able to say,

"Oh well, you know after work we should meet up for drinks."

Or, "You know, next time I'm in town,

"I'll give you a call and we can go out."

And that's been a really cool experience.

Firefighter | What I do & how much I make | Part 1 | Khan Academy - Duration: 5:42.

My name is Ky-ree Toadvine.

I'm a firefighter, and currently I make anywhere

from 65 to 70 grand a year.

As a firefighter every day is different,

there is not really a routine to it.

We could be going to a medical emergency at one moment

which we're in someone's home and helping them,

or we could be going to an actual structure fire

in which we will have to utilize fire suppression

efforts to put out the fire effectively,

or even we could respond to a traffic accident

in which there is a trapped,

pinned victim and we need to unpin them.

There's a lot of different things going on

and its always different.

Well right now I'm just a probationary member,

and its not necessarily a bad thing to be

a probationary member it just means that

I'm still learning at the moment.

I'm actually in the field,

I've passed the academy,

and I'm learning the ropes of what to actually do

while in the field.

And my main role I will say is to learn as

much as possible so that I could be as effective

at my job as I possibly can after this probationary year.

So as a firefighter I currently make 65 to 70,000

dollars a year just for my probationary year.

There are pay increases that come in through

over time, about six months in I'll get another pay increase

and then a year in I'll get another pay increase.

And then there are other certifications that we could get,

like our paramedic certification which will give us a bonus.

If you like to be USAR, Urban Search and Rescue Certified

then you can also go and take the classes to get

that certification which will also

give you sort of a bonus.

Same thing for hazardous materials

if you're at that specialized station then

you can get those classes taken care of

and receive those certifications for that bonus.

I study as often as I possibly can.

There's loads of information

that I don't know anything about.

One such example is building construction.

I didn't have a building construction background

coming into this career field so I have to take the

initiative to make sure I study it as often as

possible just to make sure that I don't let

the knowledge, or skill set, slip away from me.

I'm studying building construction because,

say if we're on top of a roof during a fire,

we have to ventilate the building.

We have to know what typical rafter direction is

so that we can effectively cut the roofing

off of the roof and allow the fire to ventilate

outside of the roof, or to ventilate vertically.

That will allow us to also tell if there

may be signs of collapse going on.

Also, I have to mention being physically and mentally fit,

we have to make sure that we take on a set of fitness

that's not just aesthetic.

You have to make sure that its actual, functional,

actually functional, excuse me,

and take that and make sure that

we're actually adaptable in the field as well

with our fitness and what we can do in the field.

And it keeps us mentally fit as well

because it allows us to keep the edge off

and takes off the stress a little bit as well

so we can continue to think effectively,

and be effective in our field as well.

Within our work week,

we work three 24-hour days

out of a five day work week, typically.

From that we start our week with working one day, 24 hours,

having one full day off, working the next day 24 hours,

having the next day off, and then working one last day,

and then having four days off,

but that's also not counting any overtime

in which you may want to pick up

and which we also work 24 hours.

And within that 24 hours like I said

we would be responding to a number of amount

of incidents, non-emergency, emergency,

maybe doing community service as well.

So during our 24 hours we are at the station

a majority of the time.

That's if we're not running calls.

If it's not a busy day,

that we may be out running calls or if there

is an errand to be done,

then we may need to go out and do an errand,

or if there's training to be done

we will be out doing our training with another company.

When I'm working for 24 hours at a time on platoon duty

we're not awake for exactly 24 hours throughout the day.

We do have times where we can rest,

and cook or do whatever we need to take

care of what we may need.

The station is basically like a house,

and we're all there together.

The challenges of a firefighter within the city

versus say the country,

say LA versus like you said, Boise, Idaho,

would be the first thing I think of is

Downtown Los Angeles, high rises,

they're tough to climb. (laughs)

It's a lot of different construction aspects to go into,

it's a lot of different elevator problems

you will go into as well.

There's a totally different,

well not totally different,

but there is a different approach you take to

structural firefighting within a high rise as well.

That's the first thing,

and also a denser population of people.

You have a lot of different type of people,

you have a lot of tourists coming through

so at any moment you could be responding

to a medical call which we run 80 to 90 percent

of within the department,

but you may be running on someone who's from Italy

and doesn't even speak English.

Okay, so different skills and mindset that

you need to have is just more likely just being adaptable.

You have to know that there's never going to be

a been there, done that situation.

You have to be committed to taking in loads of

information that you may know nothing about at the time,

and also make sure that you're able to comprehend

what may be going on at the time,

and not freeze up or anything of that nature

when it's time to perform.

Instructional Designer | What I do & how much I make | Part 1 | Khan Academy - Duration: 7:53.

My name is Onna Nelson.

I am 28 years old.

I'm an instructional designer

and I make 90,000 dollars a year.

MapR Technologies makes software to help people

manage and analyze big data.

So an example of that would be

if you're a bank, and you want to process

all the credit card transactions that are happening

right now, that's thousands or millions of credit card

transactions that are happening right now,

so that would be an example

of a big data application.

An instructional designer makes material

so that people can learn how to do something.

In my case, I make materials

so that people can learn how to use the product

that my company makes.

So I make lab materials

so that people can practice using the technology.

I make PowerPoint slides, and documentation to

explain how the technology works.

I write glossaries, different study guides.

I also monitor the forums,

and the social media so I have direct communication

with our students online.

So, anytime a student has a question,

or they find a bug in our classes,

they let me know, I address the issue.

So, I'm writing emails, so whenever you sign up

for an online class, like Kahn Academy,

you get that email that says, oh hey,

great job learning, keep going with this next thing.

So, I write a lot of those emails.

Instructional design is at a lot of tech companies,

especially because technology is constantly changing,

so you have the how to use this version of the software,

and then a new version of the software gets released,

and so now you have to create another new tutorial

that says, well how do you use the new version,

and how is it different from the old version.

And so every time a new version gets released,

we have to update our courses.

So, a lot of tech companies do have instructional designers

for that reason, but a lot of other companies

have instructional designers too,

so a lot of instructional designers

will teach people how to

do their jobs, so you have to learn a new email tool

when you start at a new company,

or you have to learn whatever process that

other company uses.

Instructional designers help

with the onboarding of new employees as well.

It all happened at once.

In kind of ...

Bizarre mesh of oh, my God, I need to change my career,

I'm not happy in the career I'm in,

and then I fell into this role.

So, before I became an instructional designer

at MapR Technologies, I was a graduate student

in a PhD program

at The University of California, Santa Barbara,

studying linguistics and cognitive science,

and I realized that ...

About four years into the program I realized

that academia wasn't for me, that I was on a path

that wasn't right for me.

I was headed towards becoming

this professor and researcher

and that's not what I wanted.

I wanted to be more involved in teaching

and fostering relationships with students

and so ...

I also wanted to do something that was more

fast-paced, and I know that the tech industry

is very fast-paced, whereas the academic world

is very slow-paced,

and that just was not right for me so,

I took classes online in data science,

and I knew that I wanted to be involved with

education and data science in some way,

and so now, I'm an educator at a data science company.

I studied data science on Coursera,

so I have a certificate in data science from Coursera

through Johns Hopkins University.

I think I was very lucky in this position,

because my manager took a chance on me.

I don't have a degree in instructional design,

but I had designed courses before.

I don't have a degree um ...

I don't have a degree in computer science but

I had built projects and put them on the web.

So, I had ...

I didn't have the certifications that are typical,

like a degree in instructional design,

or a degree in computer science,

but I had a lot of the skills,

and a lot of the proof that I have been able to use

those skills, which I think, a lot of times,

is more important.

You don't necessarily need a degree in

whatever in order to get a job in that thing.

So, when I was hired, I was hired at 90,000 dollars a year.

I'm currently making that, but I'm scheduled

to get a raise, very soon, of around 4 to five percent.

So every quarter we have a quarterly review,

so every three months we talk about

what we accomplished, and what our goals are,

and we do get a bonus based on that.

My last bonus was around three or four hundred dollars,

and so you get that four times a year.

If you're going to be an instructional designer,

especially in the tech field, you have to like

learning new things, because you constantly

have to learn something new in order to teach it

to other people.

So when you're a junior instructional designer,

you have a manager, or senior instructional designer

helping you with you work all the time,

and then, when you're an instructional designer,

you have a lot of independence,

but maybe not a lot of authority.

When you're a senior instructional designer,

you have a lot of independence,

and you're just expected to be able to do the job

without anyone helping you,

and then you might even be expected to help others as well.

Beyond senior instructional designer, would be,

a management position, or possibly a move into

a different role, so, maybe I don't want to be instructional

design, I want to work more in curriculum development,

or maybe I want to work more in interactive design,

so there's a lot of lateral movement as well.

I think everyone I work with has at least a college degree.

Some have master's degrees, but all of us

came from different backgrounds,

so for example, I have a degree in linguistics,

another one has a degree in physics,

another has a degree in math,

another has a degree in fine arts.

So, it's not like you need a degree in computer science

to work in the tech industry.

I'm very lucky to have a very flexible job.

As long as I log in during working hours,

whether or not that log in is at the office,

or at home, or at a coffee shop,

the important thing is that we have core working hours

where everybody has to log in, check in,

have meetings.

So you can't just do all your work

in the middle of the night, and then not log in

during the time everyone else is awake and

doing meetings, but, I do have a very flexible

working hours, and very good work-life balance.

I think the most important career advice

is to always want to keep learning.

No matter what your career is.

I think if you wanted to become an instructional designer

especially, being in the education field means constantly

learning so you can constantly teach.

But, any field, you're education doesn't stop

after high school, or after college.

There's always going to be new technologies,

or new, you know, whatever it is, to learn,

so being open-minded,

and being willing to accept new chances

and try new things is really important.

Architectural Designer | What I do & how much I make | Part 1 | Khan Academy - Duration: 3:24.

I'm Sophia Hastings.

I'm 24, and I am a designer at an architecture firm.

We design mostly homes, but also some office space,

hotels, things like that.

At the firm, Robert is the boss and owner.

He's the only licensed architect here,

and then you have the architectural designers

who are four people including myself.

Then, we have one intern.

An architectural designer is someone who carries out

a project from beginning ideas, initial sketches

all the way through a built, inhabitable project.

Robert as the only licensed architect is the only one

who can stamp these as an architect, approve of them,

be held legally accountable for them,

but our role as architectural designers is to help him

through the process, manage the project,

and do a lot of the work required to finish

and complete them.

My key responsibilities in the design realm are

attending client meetings, taking notes,

making 3D models on the computer of our projects,

taking a lot of sketches that Robert makes

and translating them into construction drawings

on the computer, and also a lot

of site visits and measuring.

In the permitting process, my responsibilities are

meeting with officials, getting all the paperwork together

to make sure that a building can be permitted,

and finally obtaining the permit.

Then, in the construction administration side of it,

I focus on coordinating with construction teams

making sure that if there's a change I issue a drawing

to communicate that to all the proper people,

and also overseeing construction sites.

My annual salary is about $40,000.00 right now.

I make $20.00 an hour.

I work eight hour days.

That come to about $3200.00 that I'm taking home per month.

I am an independent contractor right now

because initially I was only going to be here temporarily

which made sense.

What that means is that I don't get taxes

taken out of my paycheck, so I get the full amount,

and I'm responsible for my own taxes at the end of the year.

Right now, I'm in transition

of becoming a full time employee

where I will get taxes taken out and get full benefits.

My worst day on this job was

I had just started working here,

and I had made some drawings to send to the contractor

on site for something we were doing,

and we got a call in the office.

There were walls where there weren't supposed to be walls

like built in the physical world.

That had never happened to me before.

It was because of my drawings, so I freaked out.

That was a big day for me.

I redrew it.

Robert got the contractor to take out the drywall

that they had already put in and stuff.

He said, you know, that's part of the job.

It happens all the time,

but because it was my first time ever experiencing that,

it was really scary.

Instructional Designer | My budget & planning for the future | Part 2 | Khan Academy - Duration: 5:33.

My name is Onna Nelson.

I'm 28 years old.

I'm an instructional designer, and I make $90,000 a year.

My financial situation is a lot better now

than it was five years ago.

Five years ago I was taking out a lot of student loans

I was in a lot of debt.

I was living month to month on every paycheck.

I was not paying any money towards my loans.

I was not able to save any money,

and I was earning less than a quarter

of the salary that I am now.

When I finally left graduate school,

I had something like $72,000 of debt.

Some percentage of that was accumulating interest

while I was in graduate school,

so even though I wasn't required to pay those loans back,

they were still earning interest,

so they were growing every year that I wasn't paying them.

Then on top of that I took out a car loan

to buy a new car.

Once you quit or graduate school you have six months

before you have to start paying your loans,

so I waited for those six months to expire,

and then I refinanced my student loans.

I was able to bring them down from a 7.8% interest rate

to a 4% interest rate.

I also renegotiated the terms

so rather than taking 10 years to pay it off

I have to do it in seven.

That increased the amount that I have to pay,

but it's also less time that I'm gonna have this burden.

My loans now are down to $55,000.

$90,000 a year comes out to

I think $7,500 a month.

Of that, about 20% goes to taxes,

and another maybe 5% goes to things like 401(k),

healthcare benefits, Social Security, Medicare,

all those other little expenses,

so my take home pay ends up being around $4,600,

so almost three grand goes to just taxes

and other benefits like that.

Of that $4,600, almost $2,000 goes to rent

because the housing prices in California

are extremely high.

I used to have roommates, but this is the first time

that I've lived without roommates,

so it's a lot more expensive to live on your own

not sharing the rent expense,

but I'm making it work.

Another $900 a month goes to my student loans,

about $100 a month goes to pay for my cell phone,

another $40 to $50 a month goes to pay for electric.

I don't have TV, or Netflix, or cable,

or any of those other expenses like that.

I probably spend about $200 on groceries,

maybe $50 a month on cat food, cat litter,

things for my cats.

There's a few hundred dollars of free money

that I can spend going out to bars,

or buying things for hobbies, taking day trips,

saving for vacation, saving for emergency fund.

Currently I have about two or three months

of an emergency fund.

At my highest point I had around six months,

but then I had to move, and my living situation

became a little complicated, so I lost some of that money.

I'm currently trying to build it back up to six months.

I think it's very important to have six months

of living expenses in case I lose a job,

in case you know there's some kind of medical bill,

or you know if I got into a car accident

and needed to buy a new car tomorrow,

you know I don't have that money.

I think saving for an emergency

is more important that paying down debt.

Right now I feel pretty comfortable

about my financial situation.

I make enough to pay my rent, pay all my bills,

pay my student loans, put a little into savings.

I wish that I could put more into savings,

and more into paying my loans,

but for now I'm comfortable.

It's all about balance.

You can get really caught up in

oh I have to pay off all my debt,

and I have to save as much as I can.

I have to live with 12 roommates to make my rent cheaper.

I have to you know just eat Ramen noodles all day

so that I don't spend money.

At some point you're not living your life.

It's okay to spend some money on your hobbies.

It's okay to have some expenses

that maybe it's not the cheapest,

but it's the right one for you.

It's really easy to get stressed out about debt,

and I know I have been stressed out about debt

and about savings, but that doesn't mean you should be.

BT Daily: How to Have a Successful Bible Study - Part 1 - Duration: 2:35.

[Darris McNeely] A Beyond Today reader ask us, "How can I have successful or effective

Bible study?" You know, we get a lot of questions like that and frankly, you probably asked

that about yourself and maybe wondered around in your own Bible study, wondering how you

can do it better. I wondered the same thing as I study the Bible. I've been studying it

a long time, teaching it, and I recognize that I need to come down to some really good

steps and keys to do that. So I'd like to start a series here on BT Daily of how to

have a successful Bible study or an effective Bible study just to help us all be reminded

of certain points that we need in that.

Let's look at the first one. The first point to having a successful Bible study is to recognize

the Bible is the inspired Word of God. That's got to be at the start, that's got to be right

upfront and if we don't look at both the New Testament and the Old Testament as being the

breathed words of God, as one scripture puts it, given by the inspiration of God, meaning

that they have come out of His mouth, His breath, His mind, His character, His entire

essence then why start? Why and how will we ever learn from that? There's a scripture

in John 6, spoken by Jesus Christ, Son of God, verse 63. Jesus Christ made a statement

that I think if you keep it in mind, and I try to come back to this one as well and recognize

that it is a core truth, he said, "The words that I speak to you they're spirit, they're

life. They're spirit and they are life." (John 6:63)

They're not just human philosophy, they're not just words that some group of people wandering

around in a desert put down at one time and have been kept alive generation after generation.

They're words that come from God, they're spirit, they're eternal, they reach into our

lives and they actually create life. They enhance life, they are our life just like

food and water that we take in to keep ourselves alive. You approach your Bible study that

way, you understand that first upfront and then you are guaranteed to be having, open

to you, tremendous avenues of understanding, and truly successful and effective study of

the Word of God. We'll talk about this more.

That's BT Daily, join us next time.

15 Signs You Might Be Born With Naturally Higher Frequency - Duration: 4:38.

15 Signs You Might Be Born With Naturally Higher Frequency

Everything in the universe vibrates at a certain frequency that gives it its unique existence,

visibility and tangibility.

The breakage of this frequency causes complicated object relationships with the universe to

crumble or change and to make it exist at a higher or lower level of existence than

before.

Humans have sought to pursue higher frequencies than their counterparts since the first yogis

sit under a tree to reflect on the meaning of a deeper life.

This higher plane, call it moksha or nirvana, is the same.

Now, there are tell-tale signs that give away if someone is cut out for this transition

process.

These signs, if they exist in a person, say that the said person is not cut out for the

earth-bound and mundane.

Instead, they might just meditate their way out of this murk to a higher plane of existence.

If you deal with two of them, there is a high chance you can increase your frequency if

you try very hard in meditation and yoga.

So, here are the 15 traits indicating that you might be born with naturally higher frequency.

#1 - You feel like a wanderer, searching for a tree to cling to in a storm.

You are constantly thirsting for a partner or a spouse or a strong family.

#2 - Despite your intelligence, you are never satisfied with the results you get.

You tend to think that you can always do better.

#3 - You, like Joan d'Arc, often find yourself hearing voices of other-worldly beings around

you.

#4 - You are emotionally fickle.

You find yourself oscillating between feelings and emotions.

#5 - Your moments of lucidity and absolute clarity don't last long, but they are decisive.

#6 - Your dreams are very clear.

They are like a vision that gives you both demons to fight and inspiration to keep fighting.

Sometimes they can be tiring and scary, and sometimes you even enjoy it.

#7 - You are very bound when you do things.

Like meeting the twin flames.

Whether it's family or romance, you tie up like there's no tomorrow.

However, when chopping your chord is just as cruel.

But when you love someone, you love it as a whole.

#8 - The time for you is a piece of cloth that you fold.

This is much more real and much more material.

Your perception of it is completely transparent and fast compared to the others.

#9 - You believe in your free will and predestination.

Larger things are planned for you, but at the same time, you need to make the right

choice with your work to achieve there.

#10 - Your gut has never failed you so far.

You are perceptive and your intuition is tuned on point.

You can read people's intentions from their body language.

Because your intuition has turned out to be right almost all the time, if not always,

you never fail to trust it and you always follow it and act on it.

#11 - People are naturally attracted to your personality like ants are to sugar.

People come to you for advice and help.

You have a deep influence on them and can manipulate them easily.

But you don't use that influence for achieving your ends selfishly, or at least most of the

time.

#12 - The wisdom and innate awareness people try to achieve through lifetimes of practice

and meditation has been yours since you were a child.

As a result, you often felt alienated and alone, detached from your friends and peers.

#13 - You are a naturally motivated person; someone who is positive and illuminated and

in general hopeful about existence.

The will to make a better world for yourself and your loved ones is deeply embedded in

you.

You are a happy and a very loving person.

#14 - You rarely fall sick.

Unlike others who have a tendency to catch colds and coughs, you are a naturally healthier

person.

You have a very strong immune system and you make sure it stays that way.

You take good care of yourself.

#15 - You suffer from a guilt complex (for instance, you constantly feel guilty about

something, or seek things out to feel guilty about).

Well, those are the 15 traits indicating that you might be born with naturally higher frequency.

So, really cool information isn't it?

11 Year Old Genius I can prove Stephen Hawking was wrong - Duration: 3:42.

11-Year-Old Genius I can prove Stephen Hawking was wrong

BY Dibbert2175

Adults are meant to teach children the ways of the Lord and how to take a moral course

in life.

But what are parents to do when these young children may already be smarter than them!

Children are a wonderful blessing from God, and it is a testament to His glory that some

are born with such exceptional wisdom.

Genius child on a mission to prove Steven Hawking Wrong

William Maillis is certainly not the average 11-year-old.

He is far beyond his years in regards to education, understanding, and wisdom, and he is dedicating

his life to the idea of being an astrophysicist and proving the existence of God.

William is not simply dreaming of becoming an astrophysicist one day in the distant future

- he is already well on the path toward becoming one!

William, a Pennsylvania native, graduated from high school when he was merely nine years

old in May 2016~ After attending community college classes he enrolled in Carnegie Mellon

University last fall.

His father, Peter, explains that the boy was speaking full sentences when he was merely

seven months old.

At 21 months he had master addition, and by two years he was doing multiplication.

At four he was learning algebra, sign language, and how to read Greek.

He read an entire 209-page geometry textbook in one night when he was five, and when he

woke up, he was able to solve circumference problems with no difficulty.

Truly a gifted child.

A strong belief in God inspired William's goal to become an astrophysicist.

The boy disagrees with some elements of Einstein and Hawking's theories regarding black holes

and has begun developing his own ideas about how and why the universe exists.

His father, Peter, is a Greek Orthodox Priest, and he has been raised to have a strong understanding

of faith and God.

Now, he wants to share that insight with others and prove that an outside force (God) is the

only thing that could have possibly created the universe.

Stephen Hawking, who passed away this week at the age of 76, held extremely contrasting

and inaccurate beliefs.

Hawking once said

�Before we understood science, it was natural to believe that God created the universe,

but now science offers a more convincing explanation.

What I meant by �we would know the mind of God� is we would know everything that

God would know if there was a God, but there isn�t.

I�m an atheist.�

William is determined to defend his faith and prove Hawkings wrong.

Here is what he has to say in response:

�Well because there are these atheists that try to say that there is no God, when in reality

it takes more faith to believe that there�s no God than it does to believe that there

is a God� Because it makes more sense that something created the universe than that the

universe created itself.

It takes more faith to say the universe created itself than to say something other created

the universe because that is more logical.�

This young man is going places, and his understanding of apologetics is impressive for his age!

He will surely play an important role in getting science back to its religious roots in the

future and launching a new wave of Christian leadership.

How To Tell If A Girl Likes You (Here's the REAL truth) - Duration: 8:09.

Matt: Have you ever been in a situation where you met a girl, you're talking to her but

you're not sure if she's really that into you. Or maybe you've known a girl

for a while and you have a common group of friends, but you're not sure if she

wants to be more than friends. I'm Matt Artisan and in this video I'll break

down how to know if she's interested in you.

Dan Harris: He has mastered the art of seduction.

Narrator: Many boot camps encourage men to be assertive.

Matt: We've done all the testing we know what works.

www.TheAttractiveMan.com

Matt: Okay look, I know women can be hard

to read sometimes they don't always give us guys clear signals. It's just not in

their nature to tell a guy when to make the move. She's probably not gonna tell

you... Laura: "Okay I want you to kiss me now!" Matt: or Laura: "Yes, you can take me back to your place now."

Matt: Women don't usually do that. They just expect the guy to know when to make

the move and it's all about reading her sub communication. You see, women do

certain things to let a guy know that she's interested, so let's break that

down. But before we begin I want to mention two things, number one, subscribe

to this channel right now because we're always coming out with fresh new videos.

And number two, I want to make a disclaimer. Because I see a lot of new

students falling into a deadly trap when it comes to this. A lot of guys when

they're talking to a girl will constantly look for signals to see if

she's interested. They're trying to look for any clue to see if she likes them, a

lot of guys won't even approach a girl unless they know that the girl likes

them. It's because they don't want to get rejected. And I get it man,

rejection sucks. Hey baby... how's it going? But here's the deal, if you're with a girl

and you keep thinking.. Does she like me? Oh she just flipped her hair does that

mean she likes me? Oh she just stepped back! Does that mean she doesn't like me?

She touched my arm! I think she likes me! Oh she's going back to her friends, maybe

she's not interested? What you're doing here is putting her on a pedestal, and

making her the prize, and unconsciously you're trying to prove yourself to her,

and win her over. And I can tell you right now that if you do that, you're not

gonna get the girl. So when you first see a girl that you want to talk to, don't

care about signs of interest, don't wonder whether this girl likes you or

not, instead wonder whether you are gonna like her or not. Have the attitude of "hmm

let's go see if this girl is special" or "I wonder what's special about this girl?"

Let's go find out. You have to assume that she wants you

man! And that she needs to prove herself to you. You want her reacting to you, you

need to have the mindset that you are the prize, and that she'd love to be with

you. She just doesn't know it yet. That's the mindset of a guy that actually gets

girls. So now that I've given you the disclaimer,

let's go over the signs that tell you if she's interested. According to

anthropologist Helen Fisher, the human body decides if they find someone

attractive within one second of looking at them. Literally the instant she sees

you, she knows whether she's DTF or not. Doesn't mean she'll go home with you

right then and there, you still got to do some work but you'll put you in the

potential lover category or not very very quickly. Again, women

don't tell you straight up if they're into you or not, you just have to look at

their body language. When human beings are attracted to someone blood flows to

their cheeks and they can't help but blush. If her cheeks are red and she's

blushing, there's a good chance she's into you, or she just put on a lot of

blush. Prolonged eye contact is another huge indicator of attraction, but don't

think that just because a girl looks away, it means she's not interested. Often

women look away because they're just nervous, or they don't want to seem too

interested in you. You know it's kind of creepy or weird if you just keep staring,

if a girl does keep staring at you and never looks away.... then run like hell!

She's probably crazy and we'll be waiting for you in your bushes when you

get home. Let's face it, those guys are just not that perceptive especially when

it comes to women, so I gotta clarify again if you're waiting around looking

for these signals for her to, you know, tell you to come approach her, just go

approach her. If you wait around trying to make sure that you see all the right

signs, then you're gonna miss out on a lot of opportunities, and probably work

yourself into a frenzy from all the waiting around and chicken out. Now

once you've made your approach, and you're talking to a woman, there's a few

more signs that you can look for to tell if she likes you. When you're attracted

to someone, your heart starts pumping faster. So you can either break out your

stethoscope, or listen to hear if she's breathing heavy. You can also check out

her pupils. Our pupils tend to dilate when were attracted to someone. Look down

towards her feet, if her feet are facing you, then she's subconsciously trying to

align herself up with you. If her feet are pointing away, there's a good chance

she wants to leave. Check out her arms, specifically her sleeves. Women that are

attracted to someone tend to roll up their sleeves as a subconscious way to

show off more skin. Another thing that women tend to do when

they're attracted to a guy is close the distance between her and the guy but

this goes beyond just her moving closer to you, if she moves a glass or a menu

closer to you that could be a subconscious sign that she wants to be

closer to you. Or she just wants you to buy her something off the menu! If a

girl's into you, she'll likely touch her hair or back of her neck. This isn't a

conscious decision, rather, a primal instinct to expose her armpits which

release sex hormones designed to turn you on. That's right, it's a not B.O.

it's sex hormones... Well, that being said, I can't stress enough that you really

don't need to worry about all these signs. The problem is that most guys

don't notice any of these signs, and so they don't make a move and they end up

losing the girl, because she gets tired of waiting around for the guy to man up.

So I say if you like a girl then go for it! Make a move. If she's not into you

then she'll make it perfectly clear. The only sign you really need is whether

she's staying with you or not. If she's not interested then she'll probably excuse herself.

So quick story, one time I met a girl on the streets of London and we went on an

instant date together. I went like this like to go arm in arm like the

chivalrous man that I am, and she kind of like did this, and like, you know, showed a

lack of interest. And I grabbed her hand later to cross the street and she pulled

it away quickly, she wasn't touching at all and was not

receptive to my touch at all, she wasn't really asking me a lot of questions on

the date, which by the way is another sign of interest, if she's asking you

questions. And basically not showing any signs including the ones that I talked

about here, and at one point at the second venue, which was the W Hotel, I was

thinking about bailing because I wasn't getting any of these signs. But I

remembered she's coming with me to every venue that I suggest, you know, she's here

with me so she probably likes me maybe she's just not a touch sure and she's

just not social, whatever. So eventually I said, "Hey let's go back to my place" and

she complied and I would have missed out on a pretty fun experience if I would

have just given up because I didn't see any of the standard signs. So if one way

of making the move or escalating doesn't work, for example in that case, it was

touching her was not working, she was not a touchy girl, try a different form of

escalation. In that case, it was moving from venue to venue and see if that

works. Of course if she's not receptive to any form of, you know, moving the

interaction forward, then she's probably not interested. So to help you escalate

things all the way to the bedroom, I created a free escalation cheat sheet,

It's filled with advanced escalation techniques that will turn a platonic

friendly vibe into a more sexual, "I want to rip your clothes off!" vibe. This is

very useful when you're talking to girls and it's going nowhere. Click the image

in the bottom right of the screen right now, to download your free escalation

cheat sheet. There's also a link down in the description, get it because you'll

want to keep it handy before you go out. And if you're not already subscribed, hit

Arduino Nano Headers Soldering Story - How Its Done - Duration: 15:03.

everything you do on an Arduino Uno you could do on a nano but a lot cheaper I'm

Tom Kvichak and this is Toms Trains and Things this channel was created to

help other modelers who are in need of guidance in pursuing their dream of

building a model railroad and like I said in the beginning whatever you do on

it Arduino Uno you could do on a nano and then it was just like this but you

may have to solder the the headers onto it now what I did right here was I

soldered some headers on to it and I uploaded the program on there where I

showed you before where I did five LEDs and I also did the LCD and will see that

right over here that you could see that happening so I just wanted to let you

know that everything that you do can be done on the Nano but with less money and

why is it less money well I got three of these actually there's one that I

soldered the headers onto and I got it on a breadboard here's another one right

here without the headers and I'm going to show you on this video how to solder

those headers on there real easy there it is I have it on the breadboard I have

all the LEDs on there I got an LCD on there and all I have to

do is plug it in and you can see right over here what it's doing and if you

would like to see more videos like this how about model railroading about

Arduino and about what you can do with Arduino go ahead and hit that subscribe

button and while you're at it ding that bell and that'll notify you whenever I

have a new video coming out and speaking of videos go ahead and check my

playlists I have over 40 playlists that are categorized for you to find easily

so go check them out so let's see how we solder this stuff on here

and it's a piece of cake as nothing to it the Nano

is a miniature arduino uno in fact it's got a couple of extra analog imports on

there if this one goes up to let me see what it says this one goes all the way

up to a seven the you know only goes up to a five so there's a couple of extra

analog inputs in there but I think the last two the six and seven analog inputs

you can't address as a digital input or output on there six and seven is

specifically an analog pin okay what else is the difference it's got a reset

button on there and it's got the mini USB port on there and it fits nicely on

a breadboard like this that's why I have it set up there because I'm going to be

using that to solder it but I'm going to start on this side here and just have to

figure out a way to hold this side up to get the first one done because I tried

it the other way and this sets it up too high or

maybe sitting on the reset button is proper height pretty close

okay so I'll use that as the guide right there for the these headers right here

I'll have to hold the download to solder then I'll just have to get a glob of

solder I don't know let's see if I will do this

I'll just get a glob of solder on there but anyway let's get that out of sleep

get some solder ready get some flux ready really all you got to do is just

get from one one of these pads done and that'll hold it in place

but what I'll do is

I'll need to hold this around the other way get some solder on him get some

extra solder on there so what I'll do is just lay it in there so it'll hold it

all right did the trick so let me get some flux on

these other pins see that put it in there real nice all right Debbie's other

pins here

I'm getting in a way but

they have to do that Center one over again

I do the center one again right here stick a little bit more flex on that

yeah where's my other magnifying glass I got my this thing on and then take a

look at it with this one yeah that's perfect

that's lined up perfect okay so there we go that's a header for those set of pins

right there

you know we got to do is put these on and we'll just go down the line with

these and I may not show you the whole thing

his damn some flux on I can did the first eight of them

make sure you get this nice and steady

this get some flux to that first one

okay here goes the first eight pins

okay now the next seven pins

this one again it looks good let's pull this one up here take a look at that

okay I'm gonna do the rest of them off camera so you don't have to be bored

through this whole thing okay just finished up the last of the

pins pull this out see what that looks like there at that side and the bottom

side just clean that up a little bit and we'll test it out on the computer well

that was about three and a half weeks ago that I soldered those headers on

there and when I went to try it out on my Windows 10 computer I wasn't able to

upload any sketches on there it appears they had the wrong firmware on here

although I was able to upload sketches on my Windows 7 laptop it still didn't

work on Windows 10 and after a couple of emails back and forth with the

manufacturer they decided that had the firmware needed updated on it to work on

Windows 10 so they decided to send me four anymore

nanos the only problem is they have to send them from China now that was about

three and a half weeks ago did I talk to them so they said three to four weeks so

we'll see in about the next week to see if I get any more in but anyway that

would be six of them now they know that they didn't they didn't ask me to send

these back or anything so I've got these three that'll work on my Windows 7 and

I'll have three more that will work on both Windows 7 and Windows 10 so made

out I can bandit on that one there so I'll

have six nanos I don't know and that's all we have for right now we'll have

some more Arduino made easier on Saturday and we're gonna start doing

some lighting in our buildings over here well I have some buildings over here and

some buildings back in the corner and I have some new ones that I'm going to

assemble that I am going to make flats out of them but we'll put some lighting

into those now that'll be Oh about a month down the road before you'll be

able to see them but anyway that's what's coming up in the future with the

Arduino projects that I'm doing now Arduino Made Easy is going to be the

easy stuff but I'm also gonna show you some of the stuff that I do that I've

been experiment with over here I have some stuff that I've been experimenting

with with a servo board where we could run our servers on there also been doing

where's my other one oh yeah on I got some boards stepper board boards for

stepper motors I wanted to do the DCC plus DC C++ but I have an old older

motor shield that doesn't have the little things on the bottom so what I've

got so what I did was I got some extra headers and I'm going to put this up on

top of my other you know like this and eliminate it from hitting the 5 volts so

it doesn't draw the 5 volts from the board and burn it out I think that's

what the that little thing is that you have to cut on the newer ones I'm gonna

try it out like this to see if it it works like that and if it does then I'll

be able to take these extra headers off and

cut these pins on here but I want to make sure before I start cutting

anything off of here if it's gonna work so that's why I'm putting the headers on

there you can see like that I put the headers on there and this is the the the

voltage section right here now there's two grounds on that side but

there's also a ground on this side so I'm not I don't have to worry about that

it still has a ground going from one board to the other so we'll see how that

works out and I'll let you know how that works this this one's for about four

maybe even five years old so that's why it doesn't have all the new and stuff on

there like this the ones you can get right now so that's it for right now and

we'll see Ya
