    ..... ok but whats your day like as a soundcloud developer?
    - Hows your day structured?
    - What's an example of a recent project you've worked on?
    - Who do you interact with to make a project successful?
    This is a nice video and all but it isn't a "day in the life of an x" video. Its a developer story.

      Yes! People always ask for my help and swear they’ll never understand how I know the stuff I know. Honestly the only difference between me and them is that i didn’t give up. When an error comes up or code doesn’t work just don’t give up!
      If you just keep on not giving up, you’ll eventually see every bug and problem and you’ll be able to spot errors in other peoples code and not make those mistakes. Google is your friend. Frustration is your friend, swim in it, live in it. Eventually it loses its sting.

    I expected more 'developer' side of the story, while it is more focused on Berlin itself, but it's ok.
    What I didn't like, however, was that shadows were not cast at all.
    You skimmed a thin layer off of a cute girl's hip-as-hell life in a fluffy, dreamy pair of lenses. Making a living, day by day is something much bigger than that.
    If you want real viewership, my suggestion is that you touch beneath the surface, where the real substance lies in.

    I love the fact that she is so beautiful, open and positive all the time. Everything she says just flows so beautifully. And that part from 6:10 to 7:02 is the life of every struggling developers.
    Also she doesn't hide her broken smartphone and enjoy programming memes. My type of girl.
    Time to pack my bags and apply at SoundCloud in Berlina. Oh Wait.....this Coronavirus.

    The first ~3 minutes felt quite stretched/boring, but it really picked up afterwards.
