Microsoft CVP: Here’s How to Beat 99% of Software Engineers

Mon, 26 Oct 2026 00:17:00 -0000

Microsoft CVP and Kubernetes co-creator Brendan Burns explains Kubernetes' importance!
Sponsored by Zapier
Try the exact Agent template I used here → https://bit.ly/4u6avnM

Within this video, instead of just chatting with AI, I use Zapier Copilot to automatically expand my project ideas into clear descriptions with tech stacks, break everything into actionable engineering tasks, and push those tasks into my project tools.

This replaces manual copy pasting between ChatGPT, Notion, and Slack, and turns AI into a real system that runs automatically.

#ZapierPartner #ad

Brendans also talks about how AI is changing software engineering, and what skills developers need to stay competitive in the future of tech.

Software Engineer Day in Life during RAMADAN (Fasting)

Thu, 22 Oct 2026 12:17:00 -0000

Ramadan has been fun as a software engineer. I work remotely, so I have a lot of flexibility in my work life. I wake up early (before dawn) to have a meal, sleep for a bit, then get back to work. During the day, I have a mix of religious activities and social activities. Then after sunset, I break my fast, followed by a night of prayers and a social event. I close off the night by facetiming a few friends!

Wed, 07 Oct 2026 00:17:00 -0000

What if you could use the full power of @salesforce ... without ever opening a Salesforce tab? #ad

In this video, I'm breaking down a massive architecture shift and answering the ultimate question: What is a headless platform?

LinkedIn CEOO Explains WTF Is Going On In The Job Market

Mon, 05 Oct 2026 00:17:00 -0000

#ad Most software engineers are using AI completely wrong.

I teamed up with @Trae_ai to see what it was like having AI built directly into my development workflow instead of constantly switching between my IDE and an AI chatbot. After using it on a real project, I spent less time explaining context and more time actually building.

Check out Trae IDE: https://www.trae.ai

In this video, I sit down with Aneesh Raman CEOO of LinkedIn to break down how AI is reshaping software engineering, which tech jobs are growing, and the skills you need to stay valuable in the AI job market.
