Day in the Life of a Software Engineer | *NO BS* Startup Vlog

[@dave_eke]

Jacob finally remembered he has a KZbin audience

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

haha

[@thatolebethe8069]

right!!!!!🤣

[@columbo1977]

I literally found your channel 2 days ago and I have watched so many videos. It's great to see your startup progressing. very inspiring :)

[@RokuFromScrimba]

This is the most hype my days get nowadays... But I love it!

[@sharonxhazan]

everytime i watch your videos, it give me motivation to work own my new bussiness and i really love your content, one of the most "down to earth" and real "day in a life" tech ive seen

[@Lars-ju9pw]

On paper vs digital notebooks, I'd tend to agree while capturing your notes/thoughts/ideas. I just hate how hard it is two months later to find the notes you took about $topic. I've taken to hand writing notes during the day, and then during my end of day review transposing them into obsidian.

[@HondaVlogs]

Jacob panned to his face on the walk to work prior to the coffee. You can truly see the "I'm barely alive" face on the walk. That's the most real thing prior to just getting coffee and opening that laptop.

[@marcus0477]

Always on point! Love the vids Jacob!

[@TomWalshHud]

Another great vlog! keep it up! i wonder how much you can tell us about the investor portion of building a saas? Understanding equity, how much of the business you own, how much control the investors have would be very interesting!

[@cool-dev]

love you stuff! inspiring. Keep up the good work man!

[@jeffnhorner]

Who even waits for ci/cd checks before merging anyways 😅 great video as always my bro! Love the slow, intentional, mornings. Especially with you and Maddie. Huge relational benefits 🫶🏼 lastly, loved this style of vlog 🫡

[@kshitijk14]

haha love it, actually watched the video at normal speed after a good while

[@ThrowBackZone]

Love the transparency, Jacob! But I have to ask, how do you deal with the pressure from VCs? Isn't that stressful? 🤔

[@tomr1486]

"slower morning". Still at the WeWork for 8:45 😂

[@fahmyboy1]

FINALLY SOME VOICEOVER

[@kristoffersolgren95]

Love your videos!

[@ymvtech]

Well put together🔥

[@Danolboy]

You forgot to film the bit where you go home and do another days worth of work ;)

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

😂

[@MarlonRibunal]

That's my thought too on the exaggerations. I'm not swe or dev (I'm a DBA in IT Ops) and when watching these I am like, really?

[@tjsshetty6458]

Make more of these types...

[@j_s241]

So a genuine question - how do you and your wife separate work and just social and non work time? Do you both find it hard to switch off? Any conflict as you're always working and seeing each other side by side? Keep up the amazing work Jacob. Loving the vlogs.

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

It's an intentional balance!

[@mattconco]

Just guessing but I imagine thats one of the reasons they like to use the WeWorks and stuff - it separates work and personal life in the brain better if they take place in different locations. Even working solo tbh - I work from home almost entirely and I would probably find myself using something like a WeWork if I lived somewhere big enough to have one nearby.

[@robotrabbit5817]

Great video. This actually looks realistic! I have personal question. Are you usually more motivated to work when you switch desks/places to work from? I guess you probably could work from your apartment, but you choose to go to we work.

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Yeah I like to switch it up

[@yassinevuran9381]

Hi Jacob! What's your tech stack?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

TS

[@emmanuelsoetan1620]

Love your videos man. Haven't seen you heat up coffee in the microwave 😂

[@yousefyousef-kf1ze]

Big fan❤❤❤ From Egypt❤

[@rupertbphoto]

Great vibes in that video! What happened to tuna and rice btw?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

😂

[@kingofgaming6246]

Do you need 'business knowledge' prior to beginning a startup or can you learn as you go?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Learn as you go

[@richardthomas19]

When does the new dev start?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Late september

[@yousefsobhy692]

Looks like Cole Palmer 😂❤

[@fadl2009gh]

Hey man, quick question, why did you move to London, do you think there's more potential investor?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Mainly visa reasons!

[@fadl2009gh]

@@JacobSucksAtCode Nice, probably pretty easy for new zealanders

[@JamesJansson]

The big problem with "day in the life of" is that there's only so much viewers will take of blurred code screens and bleeped out conversations about massive stuffups at your work which you are contractually bound to not reveal. Your channel is good in that you can disclose almost anything you want as the owners.

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

❤️

[@StackIess]

What camera do you use ?, great content keep it up 👍

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

[@magnus6729]

[@yurabilous807]

Hey, how's London compared to NY?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Great!

[@malikasim3959]

I am 200% more clear on my thoughts when I use paper notebook.

[@yegorgulido]

how did you meet Maddie?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

High school

[@souravsarkar9740]

Tell me duration of learning web development of you

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Still learning every day

[@ethanj5143]

even tho i am new at coding, after watching this I know I am bad at it....please help me with an issue I have

[@raedbouguerra-k5x]

Try to make it more fun its ❤

[@kurtbusche5401]

Could you give me some info about what your wife does at the startup?

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

Everything non-engineering!

[@kurtbusche5401]

Ok, cool! You two make a great team!

[@Eriiiiiiiick]

I came for the BS but there was none 😥

[@JacobSucksAtCode]

😂

[@shalev3800]

I love your videos man! BTW I would love to know what your fiance does in life, if you don't mind me asking. I thought she was a developer too but I guess I was wrong :)

[@dilipchandima]
