Hey I’ve got some really great news to share with you, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died on a cross and resurrected on the third day so you may all have eternal life. If you believe and repent of your sins and put your faith and trust in Him as you would a parachute jumping off a plane at 25000 feet up in the air, He will give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift and I promise you, He will change your life forever as He did mine. He is the ONLY way to heaven and He loves you all. Please think deeply about this with urgency because this is your eternal life and soul, you don’t know when you could die, meaning you could die at any moment, so please consider this with all your heart. If anyone tells you that Jesus isn’t the only way, they are lying to you and they don’t care about your future.

[@witchedwiz]

Quite accurate.. If you bypass 1) pointless meeting 2) pointless commuting 3) other useless stuff All that is left is sheer productivity and free time.. The sad truth of software engineering is that it's a "work of art" rather than a "mule at work".. You usually can pull out the quality code in a fraction of your real work time, the rest of the time is spent on mulling over the solution while doing something else, laze a bit and then studying always more studying...

[@Jordan-im9jr]

That sounds... like the perfect worst best job for me

[@YoutubeModeratorsSuckMyBalls]

Actually whole programming stuff is useless then. There is no "art" works, every work is hard

[@rdean150]

Agreed. Attempting maximum efficiency has diminishing returns. What may look like wasted time to skip-level managers is actually an important part of the engineering workflow. For top quality solutions, the most valuable minds must be given space to breathe, to properly consider the implications of their implementation approach, and to craft the best product for the customer. This is actually a little-known secret that the most successful team leads know to look for in their most valuable developers, and your competitors will snatch these engineers right up with comp packages TWICE what they're making now if given half the chance. 🤓

[@CptBlaueWolke]

@@rdean150 that might also be the reason, why germany seems so productive yet has more free time then any of the hard working countries. 8 hour day, payed after hours (or mostly taken is the free time, which means, spending the time you had to work after hours someday as payed vacation), by law defined maximum work hour (i think it's 2 hours of overtime), payed vacation, 20-30 day vacation per year, payed sickness, by law you aren't allowed to work when a doctor diagnose a serious sickness, if you do you and your company aren't protected by insurances. Ofc not everything is awesome, leading positions are usually idiots, bosses are often old incompetent boomers, progress is handled like a death sentence for many people etc.

[@MJ-xl5jz]

@@CptBlaueWolke i don't think Germany would fare well without the long-standing industries like the car industry. Hardly any DAX company is younger than the first half of 20th century. Its wealth comes from the distant past, less from the present. You're right that devs need breathing space and time for growth. But where do you see that when boomers occupy the leading positions and keep down the young? If there's no chance to advance your career, you might as well stop making an effort. And then the boomers will look to hire cheaper programmers elsewhere while they do the important job of communicating, delegating tasks, attending external seminars, organizing more meetings, team events, reporting to other boomers how your code didn't improve their old 20-page long spaghetti code full of go-to statements, magic numbers, global variables and poor variable names, code that they would not want to touch again.

Recently got feedbacks from managers and clients that our team talk not enough on meetings... But all our team members think that managers are talking too much and 10min meeting takes 30 minutes and every day/week same useless talking and scrum rituals

Seeing my bad lifestyle in this video, made me realize that I needed to change it. That video is simple yet powerful meaning. Thank you Sir. 🔥💯🙌

[@monkeytrollhunter]

I think it means we're all doing it right 😂😂😂 this is the way it is

[@Etienne85]

excellent, seems like you spied our days. love the details like setting online status, muting/umuting mic during daily up to dinner ending up ordering something. so accurate description on lot of aspects. also didn't know some had fixed their screens on top, a bit scary though.

Brother is actually showing his real life in expectations.

This is the longest Alexa ad that I have seen, now I want one.

[@trollyasociadosllc]

your video is so accurate that now I realize that I don't want to keep that misserable "reality" lifestyle... I know it's only a video for entertainment, but somehow it opened my eyes and let me see a dream that I could be actually achieve with high effort. I must say thank you, you've inspired me. Also I suscribed and left a like :D

CMU represent!! I got my return offer for next year! Let’s gooo! Can’t wait to go to the workforce after this year, seems so much more chill, you live that life bro!

Missing the part where someone knocks on your door, looks you up and down in surprise and apologizes for waking you up to which you think "I've been awake for four hours".

[@maxmccann5323]

This just triggered my post first, second and third lockdown PTSD I never knew I had. Thanks 👍

[@Skwall]

The most accurate "A Day in the Life of a Software Engineer" vid I saw on youtube :D Maybe because I use exactly the same Microsoft technologies as you. But man, it's so realistic haha

[@jenilthummar8255]

The level of comfort on your setups are amazing 😂😂... personally i also want to watch tv/games like you... the best angle 😀

[@ego-lay_atman-bay]

So accurate as to how I image all programmers are like. I'm not a software engineer, but I am a programmer who does what he likes (I'm still a teenager who doesn't have a job). I go to sleep too late, and I get up at 9, overwork myself with my personal projects, while avoiding school (I'm homeschooled), and I then spend all night watching youtube or a cartoon.

[@binaryzero2638]

Sometimes is like this and is a bad feel when you are in there. When you work you lost time for you and start to feel unproductive, you want time for the work but also for you. Well, I guess that it depends of the Company, in my case my company exploit me and I ended borned

[@MoonOvIce]

What's "going to sleep late" for you? When I was a teenager that was anything between 1 and 5 am! So getting up at 9 am seems still pretty responsible 😂

Bro you are the best for doing this, thank you so much. Not Everday is perfect, but we keep moving forward regardless. You gave me motivation to be my best self honestly. :)

[@ViktorHesselbom]

That couch coding setup is LEGENDARY! #goals

[@tim6223]

Software engineers life is so peaceful. Loved it.

[@andre-ur6lf]

I like how honest this video is. And how it makes more sense. I saw many video and they dont seem to be real for me. Its like they pretend to be perfect on camera whilst i know its not the real daily life.

[@jeffpal3840]

The are a lot of liars showing a fake SWE routine. But instead, this is one of the first videos closer to reality. Thank you!

[@shortsbyjim]

its 95% my day

[@amrosalah01]

Opening the fridge to find ugly 2 slices of leftover pizza , you are describing my life to a 100% accuracy .

[@tuanlinhbui7507]

Really like it =)) I knew stackoverflows would appear at some points and I was not disappointed ^^ and I really like how you set up the whole house overall, feel like you are wrapped in multiple devices and that just drives me insane

[@PIRATEKINGDOM]

There’s an Alexa in each room :p

[@trinityneo5566]

Love your technology setup all around your place..❤️❤️❤️✌️👍

[@jalabi99]

If I had that overhead screen in my living room I would be falling asleep during meetings LMAO

[@DellaVas]

The best thing of this video for me is the fact that I'm literally seeing this 4:50AM meanwhile I should be sleeping since at least 2:00am

[@fredianriko5648]

I'm sure you love the words "runtime complexity" to make the conversations seems more "complex" 😆

[@atimaui]

I never realized how much I am missing out on myself until I watched this video. Imagine the things we would accomplish if we only stick to the reality..

[@bluejay8154]

His reality is soo my reality.. felt happy that few other techies also goes through this lazy phase in WFH.. loved the content totally😇 p.s. trying so hard for expectation to become reality😋

[@KK-sk4fr]

No way that's sad but you're living your dream right? So then fuck the world in your dreams are what makes your reality I'm not to worry you guys will be region two or three years right?

[@timothyjames6684]

This video isn't just funny, but it is comforting, even though I am not a software engineer. This was a lot what it was like to be a student from home too.

[@shilohvanderkooi7784]

I love how you have multiple things in your life setup so you can just lay down all the time xD I need this in my life.. actually though I am disabled so this would be fantastic.

[@PIRATEKINGDOM]

I have videos on the couch + gaming setups!
