The horizontal lines are due to the fluorescent lighting. Some cameras have an option within the settings for antiflicker, but the lighting is the culprit.
To add a bit more detail to this, the fluorescent lights are flickering really quickly (as opposed to other lights that do not flicker and are constant). We don't preceive the flicker with our naked eye, but cameras do, since video is a series of still images several times a second (typically 30 or 60 for North America). Since the camera and the lights are not flickering at the same frequency, different amonts of light are captured each frame. If your camera has an anti-flicker setting, this can help. Some cameras let you manually adjust the frequency to match the lighting's frequency. This setting can also be helpful when a tv or monitor is in the shot, as similar lines can occur.
I have been deciding on a new carer path and should not have watched this! It makes life look so good, but I know it must have been very, very difficult to get to this level.
You have a great life and job! OMG you eat for free...never heard of that but I'm from the hoods of Atlanta so all of how you living is very new to someone like me. But good video!
This video just popped up in my feed, to answer your question about the black lines in the bathroom, this is caused by the lights (normally LED which flicker at very high speeds) the speed being the same or close to the refresh rate of the camera/lens,, think that video of the humming bird flapping up the cameral but it just looks like the bird is floating in the air or helicopter blades that stay completely still but the helicopter is clearly flying. This can often be fixed/tweaked in the camera settings.. hope this helps!
Not sure if anyone has answered the question about the black lines in the video when you turn the bathroom lights on. Here are some suggestions about that. The lights are flickering at 60Hz, as this is the frequency of the mains electricity supply in the USA. This flickering is too fast for you to see, but in some cases it can show up in videos. Certain kinds of lights flicker and others don't. Fluorescent lights flicker. Some LED lights flicker depending on the controller. There are other technologies some of which also flicker. The camera you used automatically adjusted the camera settings when you turned the lights on inorder that the brightness of the video was OK. The exposure time of each frame was sufficiently small that the flickering showed up. Increasing the frame exposure time, and reducing the sensor sensitivity (i.e. gain, called ISO by photographers) would prevent the black lines from showing up whilst maintaining the brightness. Alternatively, increasing the frame exposure time and reducing the lens apature (if possible, depending on the camera) would also work. It is not really relevant, but the way the black lines move down the screen from frame to frame suggests the camera has a rolling shutter, rather than a global shutter.
This misogynistic, men dominated industry is what scares me the most from getting into it although I’m really good at coding and i genuinely love it. That’s a shame
Doesn't the facility you work at have airport-like security measures to keep people from smuggling weapons in? Such a strategic location ought to be well protected.
Hey man, big fan here! Love your videos. If you want a piece of advice, move the subtitles up a bit, the UA-cam Player interface keeps getting in front of it :)

@@Allie912 oh wow that's awesome! I thought only people from top schools can go there but apparently not, Im glad about that.

Your camera was fine. The WB didn't recognized properly the light temp. change and didn't calibrate; so it was like shooting with "low light" . Sony Camera?
Do you know that software engineering is expected to grow like 22 percent in the next 10 years and there are almost 2 million software engineering jobs in the us alone? It is also considered the number 1 best and most in demand job by us news, so yea software engineering is going NOWHERE it is here to stay and you might as well learn how software works for the future.
Just scroling on my UA-cam and find you .. thanks for sharing ur daily life .. i just wondering , why most of Asian people by origin like to live and work in seattle ? is there is specific reason ?
Thank you so much! The keyboard is a Keydous NJ80-AP with brass plate and Gateron Pro Brown switches. I also did a 3 layer tape mod and filled the back with a bit of foam (it already sounds really good straight out of the box).

HELP I want to work in programming and coding for like web apps, mobile apps, softwares as a freelancer. Now, which degree programme is best for this purpose, BSCS or BSSE? Have no plans for MS and PhD.
I don't know exactly what those acronyms stand for but I have a bachelor's in computer science. It likely won't matter but you should ask faculty at your school's CS department.
Hey, What do you suggest I do to learn and get into Tech? I am studying Politics at Uni - I have no Maths or Comp Sci backround so I have no idea how to navigate into a tech career?
That depends on what you mean by tech. There are a lot of non-engineering roles in the tech industry. If you're serious about becoming a software engineer however, I suggest you change majors immediately (to computer science).
I love how when you book a room it allows you 2 mins extra to pack up
This is a great video; it perfectly shows the day in the life of a software engineer. thanks!
Sincerely, I hope your job is secure during these layoffs. Got to earn that bread for your cat.
Really enjoyed this format, looking forward to watch more office vlogs type of videos from you! I also subscribed to support your new channel 💙
Thank you so much for your support!
I am an software engineering undergraduate.. i like ur videos alot. Hoping to work in those big tech companiea
thank you for this video. it motivates me to study more harder.
Great video. I'm an engineering student myself, Meta is my dream company. This video motivates me to work harder and get into meta
Any tips for getting into meta?😅

Without experience the hardest part is getting a reply (unless you go to a really good school)
