Bro two breaks that sum up to 45 min. At my last job I had 30 minutes. I don't see where the issue is. 15 min more or less depends on whether the company cares about their employees to black out or not
I've decided to not do practice problems for now, and instead build some client side and full stack web apps to beef up my resume. Ended up learning an incredible amount by doing this 😂. Once I'm done I'll start back practicing for interviews. lol

This video (like many others "Day in life of software engineer......") make's everybody feel like this job is God's blessing... I mean it is really good but it is tricky as well.... Just look at this guy, eating 10 meals a day, wake up at 6.30 a going straight to gym (without brushing teeth), hanging out after working day till 12 am....Cmon too good to be truth.

Peace.
It totally depends on your role (client-facing or not), your project and the company. I’ve worked at big tech in the bay and big healthcare tech in Kansas and both companies treat their developers very differently. Big tech tend to be relaxed and they provide virtually everything you need to get your job done, which could be free meals all day. Other companies don’t have the big tech mindset but still need software developers. They won’t provide free food or swag or help with issues you might have but they expect that you perform as well, if not better than, big tech developers. This guy works practically 9 - 5. At a non big tech company, they would expect 8:30 - 6, which can be exhausting and leave you no time to do other things after work cos you have to wake up early the next day. My point is that not all software developer roles are made the same and it depends on the company and what you actually do a the day-to-day. Some roles are dreamy, like this guy’s, others are exhausting.
Yep I remember a guys channel who wouldn't stop talking how shitty his job in software development is and how how shitty the big corporations treat thier employees to extract as much profit then can extract and the expense of thier mental and physical health. Obviously a software development job is not that bad but not as good as portrayed in some of these a day in life videos. Edit: his UA-cam channel's name is Joshua Fluke
@@takumifujiwara9072 That's exactly my point. Job is good (bit it is definitely not ideal) and profitable, but it has a lot of disadvantages as well. I can start from health problems and go on and on.

A degree gives you an insight to what and how a job works, but getting hardcore and practical knowledge you can only accquire yourself.

And here I am working from 8-6 as a HVAC-R technician, Monday through Saturday, without even taking a lunch break, cause there aren’t enough people doing the job, but a crazy amount of people who don’t want to freeze to death.
Your job is different. Repetitive. Writing software requires a lot of intense concentration, like trying to memorise all the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle and all the pieces have to fit together.
@@hyperspace32 one of my best friends is a software engineer who programs factory machines. After reading your comment, I called him, sent him this video including your response and he told me that this is the dumbest thing he read all day (his words, not mine) He takes a 5-10 minute break from the computer every hour and other than that, works 8-9 hours a day. All without taking 16 lunch & smoothie breaks.

@@georgej973 apart from the fact that I don’t have social media, let em try to cancel me. My boss can’t afford to fire me and even if, there are hundreds of other companies desperately looking for HVAC technicians. And besides, I doubt that these people will say “HEY! You’re that republican, that believes there are only 2 genders! I don’t want you to fix my heating system!

@@hyperspace32 dude he's typing so slowly, if he is actually even working at all, he is doing it at a mega slow rate. When typing code it should at least look as fast as typing your own language. Besides, look at the times on his watch. Then remember, this is most likely even more work than the actual typical day at his job, this is what he thinks that looks good.
The main reason for these massive firings is Elon musk bought twitter for way more than what it's worth and has lost billions of dollars and twitters been a disaster ever since
Twitter employees day: workout, relax, make videos, go to work, eat breakfast, pretend to work, eat lunch, pretend to work, play ping pong, pretend to work more, leave "work", meet friends and eat expensive restraunt food then go home and repeat.

@@damir8198 It's true that every day's different and it can vary a lot across different companies & work cultures. Just curious, what parts did you feel like weren't realistic?
@@JoshandKatie I think this is a realistic video and I love it, because it showcases a lot of balance, however we want to see Software Engineering when there is a busy project going on, perhaps on a Tuesday or Wednesday haha where you are in the office until 6 or 7 PM. I think that's what he meant, great video!
Ruby Pendragon the reason why most of people do it is because they got a pretty high oxygen and other brain substancies who helps the mind working clear and stable in every creation and adaption process. Its like an art, because it is.

Wow. Perfect life. In Japan, you wake up at 5:30 am and go to work by crowded train. You have to do overwork almost every day and go home at 9 or 10 pm. Most of the time you have to repeat this 5 days a week, sometimes 6 days. I’m living in Japan. I’m a senior of university and struggling finding a job. But I really don’t want to work here.
Im so sorry my dear, there are many jobs that offer work-life balance. Some are worth it money wise, some are not. I left mine coz it didn’t add much to my need to learn more altho was very balanced, try to find something outside of Japan
Leave it. If you take your Last Breath and think about your Life 60 Percent will be about working in Japan. Do something you like. My parents died Young. They had Plans to be old together and eat cheescake with their grandchildren. They Both Died in 2008 and my daughter was Born in 2018. so Maybe they Meet each other in Heaven or both will be reborn and have a Good Time who Knows. Best regards from Germany
@@JoshandKatie I agree with you. Staring at screen for 8 hours, everyday for no reason, will demotivate the workers as it will tire them out and eventually, burned out
@@dawizze1 is better to think of it as sprints or assignment due date. Every sprint (generally 2-3 weeks), you get a set of work items. If you get through them, life is easy. If you run into issues, you can easily exceed 40hr work week. This video really doesn't show you the struggles a developer goes through, especially with such calming music. You're constantly trying to figure out and learn new things, it's easy to burn out quick. It's like being back at college where the professor will teach a new difficult concept in a 1hr class that already overwhelms your brain. Then you have to do homework and have meetings. If you don't pace it right, it's easy to burn out
Such an inspiring routine, a mixture between work, workout, hung out with friends, many people are looking for a life like this, hope that you are happy, couz it's not given for every one. Good Luck !
Beautiful girlfriend, beautiful job, beautiful life. I wish i can have a little apartment in downtown, a good job , family, and hopefully more years of life. Thanks for the vid , you really inspired me.
It's so much easier to stay healthy and fit when you can afford to live in the city within walking distance of gyms and have a work place wealthy enough to provide meals. This gives him time during his day where he doesn't have to prep food to take to work, doesnt have to spend money on lunch. This is a cushy life and almost no ones work place is like this. Guys dont feel bad this is a super small sliver of life
So many excuses in one paragraph, up your value in the marketplace and you could live your version, he adds value and got an opportunity you should do the same instead of acting like he inherited the job
Yeah.... as someone who has actually " worked " in the logistics industry at middle-high management I can say I totally approve of some changes made by Mr Musk. I can only imagine how much productivity was achieved in this video lol.
This may seem unproductive, but I really wonder whether someone actually does more work in a 10 hour shift. Some say the brain can only fully be productive for around 4 hours of the day.
Finally, a video where the guy doesn't get up at 4:30AM, work out and code, go to work until the sun is down, go home, code some more, repeat. You give the young guys like me who are about to hit the workforce hope for great work-life balance! Great video.
@@endinself6874 work your way up. If you don't get a high level job at a big 4 company, come back later after working at a smaller company. Smaller companies often have more fulfilling work I would say, and it is a great way to start your career should you choose to move up later on.
One of the honest day in the life of a software engineer! Many have exaggerated to convey they come to office only to play and head back. But this is more close to the reality. Perfect balance b/w work and leisure time in office. awesome!
Yeah but now the only Twitter employees left are expats on H1B visas, who can't leave Twitter, otherwise they get deported. It's gone from one extreme (employees underworking) to another (employees being overworked and exploited, sleeping the office because they are working so much overtime)
For you college students, developers working at big companies definitely have more time and work life balance. If you're the sad soul that works for an actual startup, expect to WORK a full 8 hours. You'll be thrown to the fire with no protection. Those who work at FAANG definitely got it much easier but obviously getting in is the hardest part.
@@chrisp2168 never too late, I’m currently in a coding bootcamp and one of the main instructors was in the medical field, something to do with specializing in respitory? But he ended up making a career change and got into a coding bootcamp and 4 years later he ended up becoming an instructor in the bootcamp. Coding bootcamps usually take about a year to complete and then your sent out through their connections to land you a job

Well, this is kind of accurate and well structured. You keep it as close as possible to the actual reality of software engineering jobs, without making the video boring for the outside world. Good job and keep up the good work!
People in the comment section are just roasting him for having so many breaks, but then again, he earned these breaks by working hard in his life to get a job at Twitter.
do you think Twitter would be as big as it is if it pays a guy like 100k to work for 5 hours a day? the reality is more of an 8 hours a day work plus learning things at home, the tech industry is evolving so fast and everyone needs to keep up with it especially if you work at big companies
Ah man, the pre-covid world...I miss driving to work. never thought I would say it but it was a nice routine: short drive, work 7-4 (sometimes 5), short drive back and a small stop at the store for a few things every few days.
This is the kind of video I always watch whenever I feel like giving up on my dreams of becoming a software engineer because it's hard to keep me inspired but yeah! nothing worth having comes easy.
This is the life of an avg or below avg engineer, to get anywhere in life means you Go Above and Beyond what is EXPECTED by others. In Software Engineering that means 60 to 80 hours a week of doing and revising your own work constantly.
As a senior software engineer at the company I work for during covid. 8am: wake up 830:Eat breakfast on couch and turn on computer 8:31 get pinged by my team that is on east coast that have been working for an hour waiting for me to answer a question. 8:45 - answer question after finishing breakfast 9:00 - get credentials, run a few automated things to get myself set up for the day (VPN, log into aws, etc) 9:15 daily standup/scrum meeting 9:30 get with smaller team and set the actual plan of the day. Delegate who will do what. 9:45 code 10am-11am: meeting 11am-1130: code 1130-12: answer some question a coworker is having a problem with 12-1245ish: eat lunch 1pm-130 or 2: usually a meeting 2-3: code 3: usually some meeting or hopping on a call to help coworker with a problem 330-3:45 - code 3:45 - meet with team to go over what we did. 4: submit changes to code Build job and run all tests. Head to gym. 6pm: if code build job successful. Submit PR, if not. Log in 30 min earlier and fix in the morning. 630: do schoolwork for masters degree 730: watch Netflix with gf/eat dinner and/or play league of legends. 10pm: go watch UA-cam in bed 11-1230 ish. Finally pass out.
Me: I cannot exercise because of my daily 2-3 hour commute - one way. Pandemic happens, work from home happens... Me: Yeah, the commute was totally not the reason.
20% of the total staff is left. Company was 80% overstaffed. This dude was probably their hardest worker on this day at about 5 hrs of actual work. and probably put in half this effort on a day he wasn't taping himself.
dude if you are motivated just because of his appearance, money and working schedule then fuck it. You gotta love what you doing not all that good stuff that is coming from it : )
@@codelucky That would wildly depend where you live, and where you wanna work. Whether you take a degree or not should be your own call, without a degree more will be expected in your portfolio. I highly recommend you read allot about software-engineering, there's so many different types and aspects that you would have to learn and decide for yourself.
TWD yeah I agree, let’s say if you want to get into web development you can learn html, css and JavaScript on your own and build a couple of projects to show to employers. I think it’s the best for entry level web developers
Honestly I won’t want to work at twitter with this environment, too woke and shitty. Nothing productive will come from this environment. Elon was right changing things.
Learning algorithms, programming verbiage, and meetings . . . this is ridiculous. Coming from poverty and having a high paying white collar job in tech, I can attest that it’s more cultural and assimilation than doing the actual job.
yeah 'effort' you make it seem like coal miners are puttting in enough effort to have this lifestyle. seriously this kind of work enviroment is over the top.
The company was losing money through a sieve. Dude worked a total of maybe 4 1/2 hours. Add in the taxes and rents in San Francisco. That company will be moving to one of the dreaded red states soon like the rest who haven’t done so already.

@@renancristyan0099 Thanks man, was just trying be real with him. Maybe he can learn where i failed
And here I am working from 8-6 as a HVAC-R technician, Monday through Saturday, without even taking a lunch break, cause there aren’t enough people doing the job, but a crazy amount of people who don’t want to freeze to death.
Your job is different. Repetitive. Writing software requires a lot of intense concentration, like trying to memorise all the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle and all the pieces have to fit together.
@@hyperspace32 one of my best friends is a software engineer who programs factory machines.
After reading your comment, I called him, sent him this video including your response and he told me that this is the dumbest thing he read all day (his words, not mine)
He takes a 5-10 minute break from the computer every hour and other than that, works 8-9 hours a day. All without taking 16 lunch & smoothie breaks.
@@hyperspace32 🤡🤡🤡
Exactly. Ur one of the people who helps this world and country go round. Not these clowns. But best believe. These clowns will be quick to cancel u and/or call u privileged if ur skin is white. And they wonder why no one likes them.
@@georgej973 apart from the fact that I don’t have social media, let em try to cancel me. My boss can’t afford to fire me and even if, there are hundreds of other companies desperately looking for HVAC technicians.
And besides, I doubt that these people will say “HEY! You’re that republican, that believes there are only 2 genders! I don’t want you to fix my heating system! HA, THAT’LL SHOW YOU!” When they have outside temperatures in their home on Christmas eve lol
All the people in the kitchens cooking, preparing, and providing you with all that luscious food work 10 times harder than you did!
Thought about the same thing. Its modern day plebs / slaves working for the nobility.
Answer is learn to code...
Yes, those kitchen staff work harder, but when coding, if can give you a brain ache, as it requires a lot of concentration.
@@hyperspace32 dude he's typing so slowly, if he is actually even working at all, he is doing it at a mega slow rate. When typing code it should at least look as fast as typing your own language. Besides, look at the times on his watch.
Then remember, this is most likely even more work than the actual typical day at his job, this is what he thinks that looks good.
@@el_androi1203 Yeah I don't think you have ever coded a day in your life lol
The 50% firing sort of make sense to me now....
All those people at the Musk reviews at 1am, looked like a shabby lot. No time to do their laundry or enjoy life.
He got too many lunch breaks that cost the company 13 million per year.
The main reason for these massive firings is Elon musk bought twitter for way more than what it's worth and has lost billions of dollars and twitters been a disaster ever since
Yea I can see why Musk is dumping 75% of staff.

@@teanau11 You do realize not everything has to have constant updates rolling out. Also you have no idea what projects are going on in the back.

Wow. Perfect life.
In Japan, you wake up at 5:30 am and go to work by crowded train. You have to do overwork almost every day and go home at 9 or 10 pm.
Most of the time you have to repeat this 5 days a week, sometimes 6 days.
I’m living in Japan. I’m a senior of university and struggling finding a job. But I really don’t want to work here.

Yeah but Japanese work slow, so Americans can do in 9 hours what it takes Japanese 16 hours because they are pretending to work most of the time.
Leave then.
Im so sorry my dear, there are many jobs that offer work-life balance. Some are worth it money wise, some are not. I left mine coz it didn’t add much to my need to learn more altho was very balanced, try to find something outside of Japan
Leave it. If you take your Last Breath and think about your Life 60 Percent will be about working in Japan. Do something you like. My parents died Young.

@@JoshandKatie I agree with you. Staring at screen for 8 hours, everyday for no reason, will demotivate the workers as it will tire them out and eventually, burned out
Hold up you don't have a 40hr work week?
@@dawizze1 is better to think of it as sprints or assignment due date. Every sprint (generally 2-3 weeks), you get a set of work items. If you get through them, life is easy. If you run into issues, you can easily exceed 40hr work week.
This video really doesn't show you the struggles a developer goes through, especially with such calming music. You're constantly trying to figure out and learn new things, it's easy to burn out quick. It's like being back at college where the professor will teach a new difficult concept in a 1hr class that already overwhelms your brain. Then you have to do homework and have meetings. If you don't pace it right, it's easy to burn out
Such an inspiring routine, a mixture between work, workout, hung out with friends, many people are looking for a life like this, hope that you are happy, couz it's not given for every one. Good Luck !

One of the honest day in the life of a software engineer! Many have exaggerated to convey they come to office only to play and head back. But this is more close to the reality. Perfect balance b/w work and leisure time in office. awesome!
Thanks for the kind words! It means a lot.
yeah sure honest
This is why Twitter never made money and why Elon sacked so many people.
Yeah but now the only Twitter employees left are expats on H1B visas, who can't leave Twitter, otherwise they get deported.
It's gone from one extreme (employees underworking) to another (employees being overworked and exploited, sleeping the office because they are working so much overtime)
For you college students, developers working at big companies definitely have more time and work life balance. If you're the sad soul that works for an actual startup, expect to WORK a full 8 hours. You'll be thrown to the fire with no protection. Those who work at FAANG definitely got it much easier but obviously getting in is the hardest part.
Just work for a bigger company. Problem solved:)

don't talk if you don't know how the tech industry works lol
do you think Twitter would be as big as it is if it pays a guy like 100k to work for 5 hours a day? the reality is more of an 8 hours a day work plus learning things at home, the tech industry is evolving so fast and everyone needs to keep up with it especially if you work at big companies
He looked wornout after work though..
