[@brandonliralizarraga9809]

If you can't control it, so be it. If its justified, not your fault. Keep pushing in other things.

[@nemonymous89]

I love how you support Asian brands (cake and beverage)!

[@calvinxli]

[@eirdonne_]

ps i love coding i can live on beans but i wanna make games lol. i realise im seeming like i only want money which just isnt true haha learning python as an absolute beginner in 8th grade. anything, advice, warnings, umm, what advice would you give to your younger self?

[@nat0106951]

@@eirdonne_ 1.) Don't be "Jack of all trades master of none" master one language / technology first. 2.) Do not code to impress. Code readability is more important and Output. 3.) Don't reinvent the wheel. You will encounter a lot of legacy codes. if its working for 10 years. Don't fuk with it. 🤣 There some advice to younglings/padawans.

[@lel7531]

Great video as always

[@subhajitdey6806]

Calvin this is best ! , will you make next video on meta swags(welcome gift) or some guidance video on how to get into meta as a Data/software engineer ??

[@panduAP]

Hello how to recover hacked Facebook account. I've emailed support, but it's been 3 weeks with no response

[@pushkals.5037]

What’s a code freeze? I am still in school.

[@calvinxli]

It's a period where you can't push any code to production! I probably should've mentioned that in the video 😅

[@pushkals.5037]

Ok. Thanks.

[@goshua13]

Nice video dude. Just moved to Bellevue. Does meta have any sort of gym?

[@calvinxli]

Thanks! Bellevue campus should have a gym.

[@itsjustme684]

Finally, he got the massage chair. Yeah move steph!

[@guidopastorino374]

Nice video bro! Is it required to work every day in-office? Or you can work remotely whenever you want?

[@calvinxli]

We have full time remote roles and non-remote roles. How often you can work remotely as a non-remote employee pretty much depends on your team/manager.

[@guidopastorino374]

Thanks

[@akash8758]

[@calvinxli]

I dont know is that just making things simple to create vidoe or really you r focousing on software engineerin...It would be nice if research teams do youtube too...

[@christiandreier8871]

Now I’m not wondering anymore why young people are disappointed about there bad work life balance anywhere else when they see this - i‘ve seen a similar video from twitter, now it’s clear why so many people could get fired 😂

[@calvinxli]

While I think it's natural for anyone to want good work life balance it's important to keep in mind that most work vlogs are probably not capturing the busiest days at one's job even if it is a real day on the job.

[@christiandreier8871]

@@calvinxli thanks for your answer. You are not doing yourself a favor if you and all the other vloggers show a wrong picture of your typical workday. Lots of people see this and believe it.

[@RomanKareem-f6l]
