In your link for gear, you have a mention of the 27" 4K Dell monitor but the link then goes to Amazon showing a 1440p monitor - what is it that you use at work? very interested to know as I am sorting out my development environment/gear. Great videos and very well put together nice a clear with some good advice - Thank you!
Love your content Brian! What Backpack is that?
It’s the Brevite runner. You can find all my gear here too b-r.io/gear
I like your backpack!! What brand is this?
Brian man always good waking up to one of your posts. Good info and in-site as always. Btw what's the info on your bike? 👍🏾
awe you missed it haha. Shared the name here 11:43 it’s the Cowboy version 4. They changed the name recently to “classic”
@@brianruizy lol, I definitely didn't hear you on that. Thank you. I have to have one. 😂
@@rbsd952 it’s all good! It’s on the pricier side of bikes, but if you can find a good excuse for it do it. It’s pretty awesome 🤣
@@brianruizy I see it's around what I paid for my peloton so worth the purchase to put these trails to use by my house here in Nashville.😂Also, it's out of stock, but signed up to be notified. 👍🏾
@@rbsd952 Got ya. Yeah lmk if you end up going for it 😅
I use notion a lot great vid bro 🤩
Thanks! Yeah Notion is nice 👌
Raycast on macOS is like Next.js on Vercel.
Haha yeah, fits like a glove
Amazing video, Brian! Thanks for sharing with us!
Cheers from Brazil!
Obrigado Eduardo😁. Thanks for tuning! I get lots of Brazil comments, seems like development is growing over there!?
@@brianruizy anytime! Indeed! It’s having an increase here!
@@EduardoHenrique-nd1ro that’s cool. What cities?
@@brianruizy that information I won’t be able to give you correctly, cause it’s not my area. But I guess that it’d be stronger in São Paulo.
What's the keyboard you're using during the Notion Calendar part? (3:00)
You inspire me Mr ruiz🥰
aesthetic king
brian please tell about you office leds and keyboard i really like then and want to buy them plz .
Hey Brian what is your e-bike brand ?

谢谢分享 真的太喜欢了！！！期待更多的更新！！
感谢您过来并留下好评:]
Hi love the video! Could you let me know the backpack you're using ? It looks sick!
Thanks!! 🤝 the backpack is the Brevite runner amzn.to/3U5PTJo you can find all of my other gear here b-r.io/gear
First step: have a mac then follow this video
really nice video :)
Thank you very much!
I see you using both the airpods pro and max. When do you use which airpods and why. Which helps you best cancel out the noice of a (full) office?
Exactly! The AirPods Max cancel much more. But I like the AirPods Pro if I’m moving around
@@brianruizy thx for the reply. This will help with my next purchase. Keep up the good work mate!
Good one! Currently I’m thinking of getting wired ones as the mic are bad
Raycast is awesome !!
Not sure whether this is an overlay but what mechanical keyboard are you using? I love the sound of those switches - what are they?
Haha good catch! It’s from my Mechanical keyboard by Mode Design. The alexotos linear modedesigns.com/collections/switches/products/alexotos-edition-switches
me watching this instead of working on my app 👀
That is me too sometimes with other videos 🙃🤣. What kinda app are you working on?
Hi Brian, could you please tell me the brand of the white keyboard you're using in the office? It looks very sleek.
It’s a Logitech one 👍
Hey Man. As you are Software Engineer, I'm sure you sit alot. Man I need some advice from you. How do you manage to stay in this amazing shape? How do you manage your calories? And what do you do throughout the day to counteract sitting? Thanks for your time :)
Hi, Brian. Could you please share your zed settings in JSON. Thank you, really love it!
Have yet to customize it actually! Just the theme
@@brianruizyHi Brian what theme are you using ?
Hey 👋 The theme is Ayu Dark
Can you share the wallpaper you using please ? it's amazing
It’s default MacOS wallpaper. You can find out it at Google or Settings if you have MacOS
Ey Brian! I'm looking for a dual monitor arm and the one you have at work looks very sturdy... Would you mind telling me the brand of it? Appreciate it!
PS: I've discovered your YT channel this past weekend and I'm addicted to your content. I'm not into programming or anything like that, I just like the vibes of your videos. Keep them up
I've ben asked before, but it doesn't have any branding on it :(
This one looks super similar amzn.to/40U0jzC
thanks btw :) welcome aboard!
I like this video! i want to about your bag. name or other information please :)
Hi Brian! Do you have a template for your Notion setup?
I second this.
Sorry dude, but I think you have a perfect life: no stress, no financial problems, etc. What's your secret?
Hi, what Zed theme did you use in the video?
Ayu Dark 👍
is that coffee or beer coming out of the new expresso machine
What's the brand of the bag you are using in this video? Looking to getting a new one and yours looks good.
It’s the Brevite Runne, and yup I like it because it doesn’t really scream “camera bag” amzn.to/3U5PTJo
@@brianruizy Thank you for the response!
My man goes to the office at 3pm. One can only dream. What time you clocking off?
Haha just this day only bro. On a regular day out by like 5:30
You dress so sleek, i think you should definitely make a video on that too. Great video as always BTW!!
Can you share your work Notion templates? I’m looking to do something similar with writing notes on my work events and tasks.
Yes I can! brianr4.gumroad.com
Here is a video where I go into them th-cam.com/video/53KFVt2GRkE/w-d-xo.html
@@brianruizy amazing, thank you! I checked out the video as well.
Hey Man! I love your wallpapers too much can you please put the link for me?
This wallpaper is solar gradients found on MacOS
Hi Brian Can you tell me which brand and where you bought your e-bike？
It’s from Cowboy
Hey Brian. Been watching your vids since you started and it seems like your contents are getting repetitive though there are some new little things added here and there.
I suggest that you do some changes on the following:
1. Thumbnail. We always see your desktop thumbnail.
2. Content. Share the books you are currently reading. Finance monitoring. Your normal day during rest day/day off. Unboxing vids. Q&A (to be more connected with your subscribers). These are just some of the ideas I have in mind.
Thanks for sticking around!
I like your ideas 🙌 Right, could show more day off things and Q&A to connect a little more with you all.
@@brianruizy Didn't know you replied to this one. Love the new notion vid. Will keep supporting your channel all the way!
@@haru_1997 Thanks! And yeah, as you can see I decided to change up the thumbnail a bit haha
I am currently doing Bca in Data Science tell me which language should I focus on and what will be the suitable job positions for me
Python is huge for data science! With regard to suitable job positions: how do you feel about the Data Analyst / Scientist role?
@@brianruizy but I am in bca I don't think I can be able to become a Data analyst or data scientist as I am a fresher
I am studying systems engineering, I hope one day I can have the life you have
You got it 🤞
Waiting.....😁
can i ask you please
as a junior front end developer .... (Next.js)
should i learn Datastructure & Algorthims and Something Like ...
* Solid Principle
* Design Patterns
or i just study Technology and go deep on it ...
can you answer me please
DSA is what you will most likely be asked in interviews. But the others I mentioned in the video are good to know for working in a team and staying organized.
Depends on your goal what you study first
@@brianruizy i understand you now
thanks alot for you
could you share your setup configuration (office and home) ? thank you!!
You can find it here b-r.io/gear 👍 thanks for watching!
Hey Brian 👋 I'm always watching your videos everytime cause i want to become an software Engineer i choose this field for my future but some of the people is scared me like when they ask me about my plans and i tell them about my career plans btech cse so those people start scared me like that aahh why you choose this field there is no job in this field in future I'm so much worried brother just tell me what i do I'm so disturbed and confused, Please Brian bro tell me what i do I'm so depressed 😔
Hey Brian. You mind sharing your Apple Music playlist?
I’m thinking of making one :) for coding. What do you typically listen to?
6:25 is that animation raycast feature?
Yeah 🤣 search for “Toggle Bounce Animation”. My favorite one is “Confetti”
i don't have a mac :) Just watching these vids cause i love it's design actually i don't even know why am i watching xD@@brianruizy
Cool mouse pad, where can I get one?
The big one or the small one?
@@brianruizy the large white one
Any shedule for video uploads?
No but I probably should. Do you mean like a specific day?
Why is the office completely empty?
where is this it has so many bike facilities , amsterdam?
Nope, Houston, TX which has a super bad rep for it’s urban sprawl
You should make videos on what you wear as well! You dress nicely man
Thanks! Surprising to hear, I just try to keep it simple 😅
Hi Brian, These are great apps. I would like to know if your employer allows you to use them. I liked Linear, but my employer does not allow me to install it on my laptop.
It’s a mix of personal and professional use. You’re right for project management your company may have to do more due diligence or settle for something less cutting edge, I see that often.
How can bro film so cinematic?
Can you share your wallpaper?
Yeeeh
It’s called Solar Gradients on Mac, sorry don’t have link for it
Well bro❤
Currently wich stack do you work?
Mostly Django + Next JS. What about you?
I love your videos.
Great!! Thank you. What do you like most 😊
🙏🙏
your day in the life of software engineer and the experience you share between the video are really valuable .....i am also little bit jealous of your work place.... you really have great view from there😂 @@brianruizy 😂
@@brianruizy Your lifestyle in general it's amazing.
What are those monitors?
They’re Dell Ultrasharp amzn.to/3KLucN1 👍
can you help me
how to use visual studio code
What are you trying to use it for?
whats the font name?
I use SF Pro Display
Skip the way to Office 😅
Google Workspace or Microsoft 365?
Good question haha. I use workspace for managing my content, but 365 at my job. I think I prefer Workspace everything is simpler. What about you?
NYC?
Sir, this is Houston
Is it me or does it start to get repetitive? 🤔
It is
Notion for work? Aren’t you leaking company data? Unless you work for notion 😅
Metal watch band will scratch MacBook Pro. Are you a Chelsea supporter too?
Oh good catch. I’ll watch out for that! Real Madrid 👑
Hi
Hey 👋
we use azure at work and its fucking terrible, everything is nested and labeled this or that
👍🏻 ❤❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
👌
Is the office that quite always? lol. What type of apps are made there?
Also video apps seems all sponsored
Not always, I wish lol. This was recorded late in the day. We make real estate tech apps.
But nah, videos will have just one sponsor
😊😊😊😊😊
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
🤝
Salary?
Idk why, but this feels like a massive ad. Working on IT for a while now, and I don't see no one other than free lancers use this kind of app stack. Moreso now that CI/CD is a thing, and corporations are limiting apps for cyber security.
It’s not. My videos just have a single sponsor, if any. But you’re 100% right about companies limiting their employees to a set of apps (that’s us too). These are really all based on personal preference.
Всем привет 🖖
Helllllo
you deleted my comment ....
why?
I don’t think so?
@@brianruizy miss understanding from me .... i'm sorry
mac apps :(
Yeah, I know that feeling 😔 Sucks many of these well designed apps start off on Mac first.
