About This Video

Hey guys—welcome back to another chaotic day in my life where I’m trying to code something new and also answer the question that’s been haunting me lately: with layoffs, companies acting like they’ve never heard of employee happiness, and everyone panicking about AI… do I still love being a software engineer? I’ve been coding for 9 years, working full-time for 6, and I’m a senior now—so I wanted to do a proper, honest check-in. I start the day by getting out of the house, heading to a cafe in Berlin, and doing what I actually enjoy most: ideating. My goal is to find a project I genuinely want to ship to real users (and yes, monetize—ideally something more sustainable B2B), then do competitor analysis once I land on an idea. In this vlog, I talk about the real reasons I still love this job: building stuff (even if I have 47 half-finished projects and an app that “barely” makes coffee), the puzzle/detective vibe of debugging, and the freedom to work from basically anywhere with just a laptop and internet. I also shout out how much good teammates matter, why clean code and good folder structures genuinely make me happy, and how software is literally everywhere—from smart lights to washing machines. Plus, I finally stop ignoring my posture and set up an ergonomic chair, because if we’re at a desk 8–10 hours a day, it’s not just comfort—it’s health.
