10th episode, hitting 10k subs, we've come a long way 😭 Big thanks to all of my subs who've been supporting me so far 🙏 I'm probably going to take a break from the work vlogs and try some other stuff. Let me know in the comments what you thought of the video and what you're interested in! As always you can find my socials, gear and more on my website: www.calvinxli.com/
Great job capturing Bellevue + Seattle, and describing what a day in the life looks like! I’m about to start my day in the life vlog series as well, def taking some pointers from you! Keep going!
I find myself more often than not driving my spring district while headed to downtown bellevue, nice to see what the meta office looks like from the inside. Always wondered how it'd look.
At 3:40 you mentioned taking your roommate to Meta for lunch? What is the policy on bringing visitors into the office? I looked online at I found a bunch of different answers.
Hey future Food Review host. Happy to see your latest video. Guessed myself that you will have your dinner at Sisi Kay. You mentioned about pad thai or something in your previous video. And Takenaka sets are crazy reasonable. And im always about broth. Your noodles and the miso (if im not wrong) mustve been the best. And thanks for trying out Malaysia's place. I think the pandan "kueh" ou were trying was, (if its glutinuos rice, the white color one with pandan/green layer), its Seri Muka. If its jelly like, then it could be Tepung Pelita. Not that you need to know that haha. But Malaysia is proud to serve these as our delicacies. The rendang set however, wow, I thought you dont do spicy. And love the "approval stamp" at the end there. Cant wait for another one Calvin!
I am currently 15, and I've masted 5 coding languages, I wish to be a software engineer when I'm older do you have any heads up or what else I should be learning
You could try competitive programming. Make sure to have fun and get some exercise you're pretty young. Also I wouldn't learn languages for the sake of learning languages.
Hey Calvin! This video was another fun one to enjoy, I mostly enjoy when you take us (the viewers) with you to eat since I'm a big foodie myself heh. I wanted to ask if meta hires internationally or like from overseas as I'm a frontend engineer and I would love to work at meta someday. Also congratulations on 10k subs 🎉
I'm sure we do hire internationally but I'm not sure about the state of things right now and the market is always changing. It's probably best to just check the job postings and speak with a recruiter. And thank you!
Great Video Calvin. I would like to ask what keyboard that is that you use in your office space. It’s quite low profile and has a subtle sound which I like. I would like to have a keyboard like that in the office. Would you mind sharing the name of it? Thank you.
Thank you! The keyboard is the lofree flow. I have a discount code for it on my website if you're interested in checking it out: www.calvinxli.com/gear
I like it a lot! It's probably the smoothest feeling keyboard I've typed on yet. I think it's especially good for work because it's much quieter than my other keyboards. Be sure to check out my website for a discount 😄: www.calvinxli.com/gear
This is powerful content really gets the exposure of a day in a life. I would like to connect as for someone going back to school for Computer Science for either software engineering or cybersecurity.
Thanks! I use three different cameras in this video. I had my selfie stick / tripod for just a few scenes. I don't usually bring it out. My gear is listed on my website at www.calvinxli.com/
Great video! underrated content. i j graduated from a T20 applied to 500 jobs so far and not stopping until I get something. i love programming but, do you ever feel like this lifestyle lacks excitement?
Hey I’m curious about the Meta shuttle routes in Seattle/Bellevue. Do the routes have any pick up locations north of Seattle? Also, is parking free on campus or paid? I’m in team matching stages now and binging some of your videos to get an idea of Meta life.
We do have some routes north of Seattle. You can probably ask your recruiter about the locations you're interested in specifically. Parking is free right now but it'll be paid soon 🥲
bro that's my dream, live in Canada and work as a developer, I'm working as a Frontend dev jr, I don't have a degree (I studying college online, still 4terms left). some day I'll be there living the dream:D
Excuse me if it’s rude, but how old are you? Your lifestyle is something I’m striving for (albeit on camera it might be romanticized). I’m just curious on how far you are on your journey from post-grad
calvin please explain about your studies what is the trick for find and quickly get in a job at meta please give us a explanation video about you. come on boys and girls hit like button
1st View, i know its kind of cringe but always wanted to comment this. Love from India❤ aspiring to be a WEB3 developer would love to know your thoughts on WEB3 since most of the attention now a days is in AI.

The current policy is up to 20 visitors per year!
Another amazing vlog, Calvin! Thanks for sharing with us!
Cheers from Brazil, mate!

Focus on Ai coding now. The job market is switching right now in a fast pace
You can start building projects. Whatever the field you chooses.
Brother, next time if you come to visit vancouver, give a shout out , would like to meet and hear more from you in person.

Hey Calvin, I love the videos, however which keycaps are you using in the keyboard from your homedesk they were really cool!

What keyboard is that
I don't remember for this specific video but you can find my keyboards here: www.calvinxli.com/gear
Olá, Calvin Li, tudo bem ? Você trabalha de Back-End ou Front-End ? Qual linguagem você utiliza ?
That’s pretty much life in Seattle too :)
Now people type at speeds exceeding 200, and I still look at the keyboard
Any opinions to choose between Oregon State like you or Seattle U for CS for a high school senior? Much appreciated!
I don't really have a comparison for the schools themselves but Seattle is a better location imo
Nice Content! What Brown Jacket your using? Keep it up!
Thanks! The jacket is from Uniqlo
Nice content. What camera do you use to capture? Do you always bring tripod with you?
Thanks! I use three different cameras in this video. I had my selfie stick / tripod for just a few scenes. I don't usually bring it out. My gear is listed on my website at www.calvinxli.com/
Great video! underrated content. i j graduated from a T20 applied to 500 jobs so far and not stopping until I get something. i love programming but, do you ever feel like this lifestyle lacks excitement?
I don't think of my job as "exciting" but it's just one component of my lifestyle. Good luck on your job hunt!
@@calvinxli Thank you so much!
Have you got one?
Whats your average per week hrs you put in? I know some weeks it may be high and some low but what is typical average at Meta?
The hours are usually reasonable but I've found that individual experiences don't really say much about the company overall, Meta or otherwise.

I'm a software engineer working in Bellevue/Seattle too. It's nice to see what there is to do around the area (* ^ ω ^)

Show anything other than only eating in upcoming vlog
The comment I was looking for, honestly it feels like majority of the content is eating.
Wow you had Malaysian food! I’m from Malaysia! :)
I love Malaysian food!
@@calvinxli think for USD16, you can get a bunch of food here at the hawker #foodcomma.
