I've been to Bamco's previous headquarters in Shinagawa. It was this amazing pyramidal building with an enormous open area inside. This new one seems more run-of-the-mill, which is a bit disappointing, haha.
As turd as Electron may be, MS did a fantastic job making all of that disappear and empowering devs across many platforms to do a better job.
I've seen many people pretty much abandon many of the third party "IDEs" they used before across web, game and backend engineering, and share a similar work environment through Code.
Hold up they don't take showers/baths in the am 😣😣. Imagine the smell on the floor from hygiene. I assume he does after work?
I do I sweat when I sleep lol.Wait, are we supposed to be taking showers in the morning? I almost never do, unless it was really warm and I sweated a lot.
Not a problem for Asian people, as most of them have fewer apocrine sweat glands compare to other races; aka they sweat less. And yes, they usually end their day with a bath.Hold up they don't take showers/baths in the am 😣😣. Imagine the smell on the floor from hygiene. I assume he does after work?
I hope you wash your sheets weekly and don't sweat at all in your sleepWait, are we supposed to be taking showers in the morning? I almost never do, unless it was really warm and I sweated a lot.

that just proves my point more though, last time I checked it was 9 hour daysm so they're in a shittier position it seems. don't even get paid for overtime too.
Even in their spare time! They manage to get so much done after work. They seem to have nailed the art of starting and stopping things right on time - even leisure time.
The advantages far outweigh the disadvantages.As turd as Electron may be, MS did a fantastic job making all of that disappear and empowering devs across many platforms to do a better job.

What? Dude hung out with friends after work and even has a work friend to eat lunch and game with. He's single, I assume, hence he has the evening to build gunpla.How does watching this make you feel like becoming a game programmer?
It seems a bit unsocial but comfortable.
too bad they didn't ask him about the coding. Looks like he is working with C#
What's that thing he does with Windows desktops/monitors? He seems to be scrolling through them somehow and it looks comfortable as hell.
ahh interesting, I haven't worked with C++ so I didn't know.He was working in C++. The code they showed was really rote stuff, things like freeing memory at shut down by iterating through vectors containing pointers to the heap.
This is my thought exactly. I love coming in early and leaving early....having to stay until 7pm and take a crowded train home sounds like a pain!From 10 am to 7pm? Yikes, rough schedule. I also am a software engineer and we do 9-5 (or 5:30 in case work piles up) or if we're done with our sprint goals we can leave around 4'ish.
Pretty interesting video otherwise, loved that you can take naps and play games, in the office we just have foosball (which is great too).
Videos like this seriously annoy me. It is sold as a typical "day in the life" whereas it is not at all typical.What? Dude hung out with friends after work and even has a work friend to eat lunch and game with. He's single, I assume, hence he has the evening to build gunpla.

While it is not unheard of to spend time with friends on weekdays after work in Japan, it is super unusual and not the norm at all.
There is a government-recognised social problem of workers staying at the office for too long and this video ignores the fact that most people are under pressure to stay beyond 8 or 9pm at the office.
This video sweeps that issue under a rug and glorifies the idea of working for a Japanese company, which are otherwise notorious for dominating the lives of their employees.

Ah my apologies, didn't pick up upon the fact that it is Friday. Still, it is glorification since it is sold as "typical." And many people will be working late – or at least too late to spend a couple of hours at an izakaya with enough time left over to enjoy recreational activities at home – even on a Friday.the video even talks about how they often work unpaid overtime, but people didn't notice. Also, this is a friday. It's the weekend, hence why he goes out instead of coming home to immediately go to sleep for the next day of work.
And being able to sleep in your office isn't really a good thing. That's there to facilitate people literally living at their office, to cut out going home for sleep.
Its in Shinagawa? Where?I've been to Bamco's previous headquarters in Shinagawa. It was this amazing pyramidal building with an enormous open area inside. This new one seems more run-of-the-mill, which is a bit disappointing, haha.
Seems pretty happy. I thought all those devs that were crying about their six figure jobs said making games was a nightmare lol.
6 figures? In Tokyo? lol!Seems pretty happy. I thought all those devs that were crying about their six figure jobs said making games was a nightmare lol.
It was. I think they moved from there three or four years ago, and I remember hearing that they literally demolished the building. It was right beside that Rinkai Line station, if I'm not mistaken.
Oh interesting, I usually stay in Shinagawa when I'm in japan. Kojima's offices are right near the Shinagawa Station.It was.

Cheers QtCreator friend! XDI have no real allegiances to any IDE. I generally do not use electron (atom) or VSCode, though. When I'm on windows, I have an actual Visual Studio enterprise license (i've been using Visual Studio -- LEGALLY -- since Visual Studio 97, always shell out for a real license), when I'm on linux I tend to use QT Creator these days, mainly because I like how it handles the concept of a "project". In a bind, I'll use gedit or notepad++ and gcc/gdb/git/etc from a command line. All feel fine to me.
That said, I really do love intellisense.
Cheers QtCreator friend! XD
Coworkers have been using CLion for C++ development on Linux but I can't abandon QtCreator.
They definitely have a problem in communicating people that it's a general purpose c/c++ ide. You're not the first to think it.Valve turned me onto QT Creator at Dev Days back in 2014. I actually had never used it prior to that because I thought it was somehow tied to the QT library.
Turns out it's a fantastic general purpose IDE. I actually use it for dreamcast development recently, here I am bending it to my will:

It's really nice. I started using it in 2010 for desktop development because one teacher recommended me. Nowadays I use for embedded devices and it's really customizable. Recently I started moving from QMake to CMake.
Hmmm...I thought the mechanic admin was pretty decent, she got home at like 6:30 and had the entire evening to herself. Job also seemed fine although she had to be part time maid on top of doing her admin work. But at least there was the company vehicle she could use to do errands.Paolo has a few other videos, tbh this is the most relaxed day in a life, because the others seemed gruelling, completely put me off Japan as a destination to live, work/life balance is horrendous. The Ramen shop and Mechanic account admin, whilst facinating was shocking.
