[@peepo4619]

awesome video! i’m a freshman in college studying computer science so this video is very inspiring to me. if you could do a video on your prior experience to your job (education , internships, work experience, etc) that would be great!

[@brianruizy]

Thanks for the idea! 👍 I'll definitely go more in-depth on my background and provide some advice for those looking to get into the field 🙂

@@brianruizy bro random question , but why do u commute to work by bike rather than taking Ur lexus ??? Just curious 😜 . Beautiful colour btw !

[@yunusm4208]

@@brianruizy bro u also replied to all 529 comments and left the 3 haters! Bruh how 😂😂.

[@xXFUEGIxX]

Man, the effort you put into the bike ride is incredible. You tagged us along the ride. And Houston is beautiful. I would love to work in Houston as a SWE

[@brianruizy]

Yup, it was a great effort to get it right, but seems like it worked out 😅. Thank you for watching!

[@avong003]

I've spent the last year and a half trying to become a software developer. I've spent god knows how many hours watching tutorials after tutorials, trying to learn HTML, CSS, and JS, github and git flow, trying to complete a portfolio and some projects to feature, etc. I spent even more hours battling thru imposter syndrome, fear of failure, and wondering if I am even good enough. I am not quite sure why or what it is, but watching your video just now made me feel a little better and gave me some motivation to keep going. Maybe its because I see you living your life in a career you love and it motivates me to accomplish and strive to do the same for myself. You seem genuinely happy with your career and life and it makes me want that for me. I just wanted to say thank you for posting this video. As some other commentors mentioned already it was one of the best DITL SWE videos out there that shows the real DITL and not just a video bragging about work perks. Sorry for the rant, but thank you again, Brian. You've got a new subscriber in me and I look forward to seeing more of your videos as well as using you as inspiration for my own journey.

[@brianruizy]

Can’t believe I missed this comment! But thanks for watching and for sharing your thoughts 😊 Don’t miss my recent video I talk about how I dealt with my own imposter syndrome. It’s very real! Best of luck, mate 🙏

[@TYZmatos]

What a crisp and clean vibe! I loved everything about your lifestyle and the vlog itself is so great and chill! The effort in every clip doesn't get unnoticed! ;) Keep Up! Much Love from 🇧🇷❤

[@brianruizy]

Than you for the feedback 😊. Glad you enjoyed watching!

[@Shidaar]

"Sometimes I'm just professional google searcher". I think every software engineer can relate to this :D

[@brianruizy]

100% 🤣

[@JordonM78]

Man was running late and still made time to put the camera in different locations to get different angles.. wow that’s dedication👏🏾 much respect it says a lot about you and I admire that

[@htmoh8115]

I started coding not long ago. A lot is way above my head. But won't quit so easily. I hear programming interview is no joke.

[@brianruizy]

yup tech interviews take lots of practice! But can vary depending on the company. Good luck, mate👍

[@clos9431]

I really like this video man. Good job…the background music and everything was just chilled out and mellow, I’m about to graduate as a full stack web developer and it’s been rough while trying to work a full time job but I still have to keep getting better but this video is very motivating and I am going to work remotely also but thanks for real from Mississippi

[@francocarreras9555]

[@rickynolan1890]

Cool video man. I'm a UX designer, currently taking CS50. Hoping to make the break into a software engineering role in a years time where I can utilise my UX skills too. Just came across your account and reassuring me that it's possible. Subbed👍

[@joelguay7100]

Yo cool bike, whats the brand?

[@ForkNRoad101]

Hey. Thanks for sharing your day. Just curious, is it normal for Software Engineers to do UI/UX Design or if that is a skill you built up to stand out. I am a UX Analyst myself and never knew Software Engineers did that.

[@brianruizy]

That's a very good question!! Design was something I've always enjoyed and started learning about it on the side, but it has proven very valuable in my career! Are you looking to get into SWE?

[@lliselsolis4456]

Love how organized you are!! Careful on that e-bike!!!!! 😮

[@bkr1064]

If you wake up at 7:30 I honestly have no idea how it takes a grown man that long to get ready and take a short bike ride and get there you got there by 10:00 that is absolutely insane you need to evaluate some things clearly if it takes you that long to get such a short distance waking up two and a half hours early

[@brianruizy]

It was implied that I didn't get up from bed right away (hence the tossing around). But I'll take it as feedback and be sure to illustrate things like that so it's better understood. So I was up closer to 8:30, also have to consider the time I take recording the scenes. Had to go buy breakfast, and got to the office around 9:35. I really don't find that 1-hour & 5 minutes span of time "absolutely insane".
