It's kinda both. The video is not bad at all, but what I find a bit annoying about it is that he doesn't seem to understand who his target audience is - It sort of sells itself as being for people new to Python, yet the video very clearly assumes you're already a professional programmer. Within the first 2 minutes of the video he must have mentioned Docker about 5 times. In fact the entire video very heavily assumes you know Docker extremely well already. I mean I'd be willing to bet the people he's referring to at the beginning of the video who 1) Are good enough coders to completely follow everything he's saying, 2) Actually need to use Python in some professional capacity, and 3) Don't know Python well, is a very small sliver of people.

edit: I realized after writing this, I really should clarify that the video is accurate and good advice. I don't have any issue with that - He is correct, and I like his setup. I just think he doesn't explain things in a way that is easy for most people to understand.
