This seems so relaxed and controlled. Normally I'm in meetings from 9-5, then my actual development goes from 6-midnight. I'm happy you touched on the importance of work-life balance. I'm ready to find an employer that prioritizes that.
I am a doctor and I think , we have similar realities, adding to that the physical strain doctors encounter too. But your outstanding videos makes me want to switch to a SWE career everyday hahahaha. Anyways Good luck :)
Would you recommend that career path to anyone? Im currently deciding on my major and I am leaning toward CS. But I have considered medical school many times without ever coming to a final decision. Are you a family doctor? How much debt did u rack up by the end of medical school and have you paid it off yet?
I like the relaxing vibes. Love programming. Well, most of the time lol. Also, there’s a good bit of typos in the subtitles, just wanna point that out!
Hey Brian!!! Always good seeing and getting a glimpse into your life. Always great info!! 👍🏾 I still get mad when I see your bike, lol I'm still trying to order and their customer service is slow. 😅 Stay fresh man!
@@nexusmeister it's by Cowboy and I want the Classic like Brian has. The US website doesn't let you order anything, it just shows all the models and that's it. So frustrating. 🤦🏾♂️
Yet again another amazing and insightful video. Please do a a video on what you do apart from the office that involves a career focused perspective. Like u said u had to learn next.js. It wud be amazing to see u and ur routine on how u learn that. Do u kill of some gym time or a few days w the boys to sit and learn, or are u just a genius?
@@brianruizy Awesome. I’m learning Java back end development rn and it’s so annoying. Idk whether it’s the right path for me. So rn I’m trying to at least get a job and work for a year and see if my interest grows. Do u think thats a good decision?
@@brianruizy Yeah! It’s helpful and very interactive, in my opinion. Cause you are sharing your vision and in comments we can read another points of view, too.
Hey Brian, amazing vid as always..., but I had to watch it in 1080p, for some reason when I make it 4k it becomes so noisy, is that on purpose? it's very distracting...
@@brianruizy yep, I thought it was your camera, but the FX is a great camera, So it's Def the noise effect, it was on your face more that's why I said it's distracting...
hello, I was very surprised when I saw that you have a villa, after watching the beginning of the video about the morning routine, I thought that you live in Korea, not far from the center. It amazes me that you have 2 houses and ... Damn it, I really don't understand where people work, what they earn more than what do they earn more 450 USD, it's amazing. I'm used to the fact thpeople work from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., at a regular job, and earn no more than $320 per month.
Hi Brian, I bought the HP G2 dock after watching one of your old videos, I had an M1 MBP and needed to use it with dual monitors. Now I have an M2 Pro MBP, I want to change docks, I hate having to run DisplayLink every time I want it to work. What’s the new dock you’re using in this video? And do you recommend it?
unfortunately I still have to run display link with this new dock, which you’re right it’s a little annoying. Check out these notes by Apple support.apple.com/en-us/101571. There should be a way to do it natively
@@brianruizy I have worked as a software dev for 5years at this point and UI is something, have always wanted to learn. So you have any beginner friendly materials i can use to start?
Great video! Always relaxing and educational to watch. I'll start my path to code, but I don't know yet if I want to be a software engeneer, web developer, ... I started a course on udemy to code with Python. Are this like valid courses? Or just a waste of money?. I'm in the military, so going back to full time school isn't an option
I went the self-taught route and even worked in FAANG. I want to add more context, but get the degree. Don't make the same mistake I did. I've been rejected countless times for not having one, even for for jobs that require experience like a Senior Software Engineer. If I could go back and start over, I'd get a degree and focus on the cost and quality of education, and that's it. Don't fall for the prestige BS; only pay what you're comfortable with. You can get an accredited degree for a very reasonable price, along with scholarships, grants, and federal loans to ease the financial burden. After 8 years of professional experience, I"am going to get my Master's in Computer Science with a specialization in Computing Systems. Please don't get fooled by people who claim that they don't have a degree when, in fact, what they mean is they don't have a CS degree (or other relevant degree). Having ANY degree is MUCH better and different compared to having NO degree. I have NO degree whatsoever and fought my way into the industry. I have always been a top performer, but you'll find that employers do NOT practice what they preach.
Thanks! There are various ways to learn online, either following a roadmap or a paid course like those you mentioned. Really depends how learn best. But I think it’s totally doable with free resources to pick up the fundamentals
I'm a chemical engineer with some background in coding have an associate in computer science, do you think I can make the transition to programmer? awsome vid by the way
Fantastic Video! Thank you for inspiring us. Your video made me to reskill my software engineering knowledge. I have a diploma in software engineering with basic knowledge of programming. Is there a non technical part of software engineering. I have this fear that I'm not capable to be a programmer due to the poor teaching I had during my diploma. Your advice and support will be highly appreciated. Thank You!
No hate bro but with the time that comes, the people that learn Software engeneering are Not needed because KI exist. But love you Conntent keep going 💪❤
Honest question: Why do you dress like you work on Wall Street? Is it mandatory for your job, or do you prefer it? I'm genuinely curious because I've been watching your videos for a couple of years and have always wondered... "Why does he dresses like that? He's a DEV/SWE and so do I but I can use t-shirt to go to work :)"

Anyways Good luck :)
Would you recommend that career path to anyone? Im currently deciding on my major and I am leaning toward CS. But I have considered medical school many times without ever coming to a final decision.

Hey Brian!!! Always good seeing and getting a glimpse into your life. Always great info!! 👍🏾 I still get mad when I see your bike, lol I'm still trying to order and their customer service is slow. 😅 Stay fresh man!
Hey, what's the brand of the e-bike? I have been searching for ages :D

Good videos as always.. When you bike to your office, don't you get there sweaty?
I get quite hot but not sweaty thankfully lol. The e-bike requires less power from your body
Bike safety starts with a helmet komrade.

Thanks @brian❤
Hey Brian, amazing vid as always..., but I had to watch it in 1080p, for some reason when I make it 4k it becomes so noisy, is that on purpose? it's very distracting...
Oh is it maybe the grainy effect? I like to add this look, but I can adjust it if too distracting.
Do you notice it in other videos?
@@brianruizy yes but they were subtle, this one's different...
Yeah I did add more than usual. Thanks for letting me know!!
@@brianruizy yep, I thought it was your camera, but the FX is a great camera, So it's Def the noise effect, it was on your face more that's why I said it's distracting...
Nice video Brian, just a question, which bike do you use? looks very cool!
Gosh i miss slack!
Dang bro got the aesthetic vibe.
he finally uploaded!
You make me want to live in Houston just to commute to work on an e-bike haha
haha, it's a little tougher than it looks! Not as bike friendly as I would like

@@brianruizy how would you compare it against something like the MX Keys?
Yup! Such a clean look.
MX for sure an upgrade (more hefty), but of course comes at a price. This should do if you want to save :)
@@brianruizy thank you! that helps a lot :)
Step 1: study hard 😭”i hate school”
Do you also work on the UI design for your team ? Do you feel it's an added advantage to a software engineer ?
