A follow up video to episode 8 of my day in the life as a software engineer vlog. In this video I talk about why I changed teams, the pros and cons of switching teams at Meta and also the future of this channel.
Should "After Hours with Calvin" be a series? 🤔

[about me]
I'm Calvin and I'm a Seattle-based software engineer working at Meta/Facebook (at the time of posting this video) . I share content content related to my life in tech (as a software engineer) and my hobbies/lifestyle.

Kindly add "parental mode" in facebook posts.
Its ruining people lifes. In Holy books says. Who will show nake body so she and he did sin.
And their money will be block and not will be given to them.
So kindly add "parental mode" as youtube do. So we can not see naked bodies.
Other wise people will not use facebook. It serious thing. Save facebook.
Thanks..
I'd love to hear more about the life in Seattle👍
ok wait binge watching your videos.......crazy!
Please keep on making such great and amazing videos sir. You are very very inspiring for Computer Science students like me. Thank you so much for being an inspiration for us. 😊🙏
Maybe health, fitness, eatting ,skin care routine , managing speding while working in Meta... also maybe review tech accessories btw want you to uoload vdo more often really enjoy watching 😄
Thanks for the suggestions, Jean. I really appreciate the support! I'll try my best to carve out more time for content making 😅
Learning about your health/fitness would be great. I want to know how you stay in such good shape even with all the free food at Meta 😆. Also would you be considering working from the Bellevue office instead as your new team is primarily working from there?
I'll see what I can do about that video haha. As for Bellevue, I do plan to go in maybe a couple of times a month because they brought that shuttle back but I'm going to stick with Seattle as my primary office. The Bellevue commute limits my freedom too much.

Please, I have a question. I am Front End and I worked on real projects in Next JS with Back End people, and I want to enter the field of Back End. Do you advise me to learn C# or javascript, it's a busy frame, I'm very confused, and people distract me
Thank you
If you're starting from scratch, JavaScript/Typescript is a good option especially since you already do frontend. If you're working on some existing project then just learn whatever language is already being used.
@@calvinxli Thank you, but I have another question and I am sorry to bother you. Since I am a front-end developer, I start with javascript in the backend, but there are people who tell me that C# is better in terms of everything, that it is a stronger, faster, and better language, and there are more job opportunities than javascript. As a backend developer
Awesome video 🎉
Random question, how do I reach a recruiter to get into META
Thanks! That's a tough one. You can try contacting recruiters directly on LinkedIn but I've personally had low success with that. I just try to make my LinkedIn profile as up to date and as "attractive" as possible and let them come to me. Check out my resume video if you haven't :)
@@calvinxli I have seen the resume video
I have a screenshot of abstract one you displayed in it 😅
What camera do you use for your vlogs? Any recommendations?
I switch between my phone and video camera. I was using the sony zv-1 as my video camera (and in this video) but I just upgraded/switched my video cam. I have all my current stuff listed on www.calvinxli.com :)
@@calvinxli Appreciate the info Calvin. Keep up the great videos :)
Hihi how about health/fitness vids and even personal grooming? Thanks!!
Can you elaborate more on what you'd like to know in terms of grooming? Also, thank you for your suggestion 😁
Sir, how many languages can you code in and how many languages is it sufficient for us to know in order to become an app, software or web developer?
I'm not really keeping track and the number doesn't matter. It's just a tool for the job. Figure out what it is you're trying to build and what tools you need to build it.
@@calvinxli Okay. I got it. Thank you so much for replying. 😊👍
Yep, I think Health or fitness is a good topic for your next video or something like What do you do to relax. Or simple is you unbox your new laptop and share some experience with it and why you choose it. How it can help you in your job. Unfortunately, you opened, right? 😆
Lol it's just a work laptop anyways. There's not a whole lot to talk about there 😌
Sir, what is your typing speed? I feel inspired every single time you type. Now that I am feeling motivated by your video, I am also going to do lots of coding today. 😂
Hm maybe as high as 130 ish if I'm actually trying to type fast
@@calvinxli Oh My God!!!...🙀🙀🙀🙀🙀🙀🙀🙀. By the way, mine is just 40-50 words per minute. 😂 I hope I get better at typing with more practice. 🥹
@@calvinxli Thank you so much for replying. 😊
health video suggestion: skin care
Hm we'll see about that
Do a 10k food eating challenge - I know you can do it
Nah I can't do that lol
I would love to connect ...and shoot my shot🙊
My IG is linked 🫣
I dont even know what to comment, and I wish that this isnt inappropriate. But we all know you are good looking. You fine. So with that tone of voice, maybe, a light or focus on the face would be da bomb. Love the ambiance of the room but just brighter on the face. Make sense? Ya whatever
Add: Good luck in making it during the ramp-up (did i get this right?) and no more team loss/losses . But if it does happen, you dont lose us.
Content: I dont know. I usually personally thought that making contents is a way to express yourself, that you felt seen, heard and acknowledged. So whatever reason you may have, I always think that silent content is useful so you dont have to explain or justify. Record whatever whenever u in the gym, what you cook, where you travelled, as a diary. But stop when it becomes too personal. Unless thats your thing.
Thanks so much for the feedback and good wishes!
I agree with the lighting. I'm planning on restructuring the office setup a bit. Hopefully I can get the lighting to work a bit better functionally and aesthetically.

What does this mean 👀
