I Spent 120 Hours Coding This! 

Me: Plans to sleep early. Also me: starts a 'quick' coding fix at 9pm

So glad to see a cool intro and some fun editing in this video. To be honest I feel your recent videos lacked a little bit of excitement - many of us viewers need something poppy, something funny, something fresh. Definitely a step in the right direction, feels like old Hallden is back. Keep growing man!

Kalle! Been a fan for a long time! and loved seeing your YT progression especially since I am software engineer who got into the industry 4 years ago and I share the same passion for trying things and just going into it(shirt making, coding side projects, videos and even sailing[soon I hope!] haha). You've changed direction so many times, maybe your initial audience that got you here has dropped off? The initial journey was about learning coding, building things and getting a job in tech and the it splintered to some hacking tools and then non tech related topics. Now the channel feels like we are slowly watching someones life go by which I quite enjoy the film making and music is awesome but there is no punchy content or direction. Hope you get back to the big watch numbers you had before. Love the content! Do a Sydney meetup next time you are in town!

Man this video is so relatable haha. So often on youtube people glorify what its like to code something and make it seem so fun. More often than not, it is simply a grind. On that mental fatigue you talk about at around 11:30 -- The brain uses 70% of all calories you consume! It shouldn't be a surprise that you feel completely exhausted after thinking so hard for literally hours keep going!

Stared at every one of those “subtle” comments😂

It can be very frustrating but at the end... seeing the results of the stuff you yourself created is I think still one of the greatest feelings. Watching your Videos and seeing that other people struggle the same way i do gives me Motivation. It actually just shows that with enough effort you CAN even if you dont think so, and that can be projected to so many different thing in live. You made a really nice video and deserve much more keep up the good work!!!

Good for you for cracking the code. You popped backup on my feed. I've now ticked the bell for all notifications.

Tip: if you would have used the VSCode debugger with a breakpoint on the line to write to the DB, you would have been able to catch the issue much earlier by checking the input variables

MAN , TIME FLIES; IT'S ALREADY BEEN 5 YEARS SINCE I've BEEN WATCHING YOU ,, I WAS 12 YO when i first started watching you now I'm ALMOST gonna turn 18 and i still love to binge watch your videos

Hey Kalleden, I like how spontaneously you just go out for a run to clear your mind! I'm sure it gets frustrating when you're trying to figure out where you went wrong in your coding and not having a clue as to the cause of the glitch. Keep uploading more YT content so we can see how much better your coding is going.🎉😅😊

I'd look at adding static type checking to your project, otherwise you are sure to have many more errors like the function vs function() one. Most popular tool in the Python world for this is probably mypy

This video shows the realistic feeling of being a software engineer. The debugging and the questions and all that other detail. Good video man!

Just a shout to the fact I really enjoyed this video. It helped me a lot. I've just finished my Computer Science Degree (at 26, yeah man I'm old for uni (I think)). Kinda feel stuck inbetween actually finishing the degree and graduating. Wanted to code a project idea I had for my portfolio and this video gave me the motivation to actually start it. THANK YOU!!

Maybe look into web scraper youtube APIs like used in tube archivist to avoid the restrictions and limitations of the official API

Keep up the work :) You're one of the few RU-vidrs that make me try to reach my goals and really motivate me on my Coding Journey :)

That was one of the best videos I saw on RU-vid. I really liked the aesthetic and the editing. Thank you for the video :))

Love the video. 7:11 to 7:31 depicts what programming is like 🤣

I really like how you combine coding with humor. Loved all the little details and the ending, it made me smile and making people smile is always a good thing. On top of that you also show the struggles that come with coding, so it’s far more realistic than a lot of other channels/videos. Thanks for entertaining, motivating and inspiring a lot of your viewers. ❤

I like the way you mix beautiful cinematography with programming. I would like to create videos like you one day. You live such a beautiful life.

I think you should focus on the RU-vid analytics app first. Then it could be used while you finish the time tracking app. It sort of kills 2 birds with one stone, while you’re building out the time tracking app you can be testing the analytics app everyday and make updates as you want/need. Excited to see what you decide, great video 😊

This is my first time watching one of your videos, and I absolutely loved it. I've subscribed to your channel. I got so much inspiration!

been waiting for a month, were here man! keep uploading

I love how you rubber ducked the solution in the first 60 seconds! rubber ducking FTW!

Sir, I am inspired by your lifestyle a lot, please make a video on dealing with people and how you manage your thinking after dealing with them. Thank you for providing us such useful contents

I was thinking app as you were working on it....tons of work you've invested, and how many would love the same information for their channel....go for it!

reallyy enjoy Kalle's focus more on the human condition of being a programmer then the programming itself. The coding is super interesting, but its the application of that knowledge and what it requires...being a human in a digital world.

I was actually thinking of an app / live dashboard when you started showing the email code! I think a live dashboard hosted on a website will be easier. That is if you are able to authorize RU-vid API from the dashboard.

The man is back, great content.

Hats off to editing and your dedication, you just give me motivation to work on my unfinished projects.

Quality video and its style is really engaging!! Wish u good luck ❤

14:05 and following, that section of the video was so nice 🤗

Hey mate, thanks for the video. Its very entertaining to watch, keep going! Just one thing: I quite didn't understand the whole idea of your app, as I think you can get all that from the RU-vid Dashboard as well (likes, dislikes, new abos by video, you can even compare different videos side by side). I'm just curious if I missed the thing in your video 😅

Thanks for these videos. I'm hoping to make a switch into system development from 18 successful years in sales. Every time I watch your videos I get just a little bit calmer about my decision. Keep it up.

Well it must be working. Haven't seen you in my suggested for a long time! Looks good man

An app could be very useful, plus you could have a feature in which a user allow the app to send an email every week/day etc.

the app is a great idea also could you please make a tutorial on how to make large scale apps using python and how to package it into an app which is publishable on app store or google play store. loved the video ❤

I mean once you side swipe someone's car, they're pretty much besties.. they're breaking so many unspoken rules. Anyways, great unrealized/realized app! :D

18:10 that "disaster" was so random lmao, hysterical

You should actually do an App and try to find a way to make it available to others, so they could use it. In the end the problem you are solving is actually touching every Content creator and even companies they would all be interested in that. Especially companies when creating for example trailers for new products to get rapidly the general trend they are getting on the video. I know you know how to make that but in the end create the app for you then, change some parameters so that they become variables that are prompted to the user that has to input them every month or so. That would be awesome. But you should keep the email feature as a side and also and add the possibility to extract the database data for each video in excel format. Quite a lot of possibilities there.

really i think i found my best tech youtuber so far wow video was so relaxing hoping to see more because i would be checking from time to time

What you have would be great as an application/program perhaps paired with some sort of social management platform. I actually was playing around coding such a platform a while ago and after watching this I should pull it off the shelf and do a bit of work on it.

Great vid bro I look forward to more 😁

The highlight of this is the "Man vs Bee" challenge. Code > *fight Bee [temp] > Eat > Train > Sleep

Really liked the editting on this one! 💯

It'll be cool if it were an app. Also you could a feature to check how many downloads you have because not everyone streams, some save it for later

Keep going Hallden i really love your videos.

typecasting is a hell of a thing

You are experiencing the problems which are typical of a loosely typed language. At some point in your code the variable has been assigned a value that is not an integer. If you'd used a strongly typed language, then you would never have experienced this problem because the code would not have compiled without error.

When i was learning PHP at school i had a frustrating error that i used hours debugging. All it was, was I wrote methode instead of method. I still laugh of myself for this 5 years later.

I had a giant wasp that flew in the door frame a few summers ago. I literally gave him the door! Now, this summer I have a mosquito in my room for the past 2 nights, I can’t seem to get at!

Thats why types (even type hinting) are important

Keep going! Love watching these!

Your my best youtube programmer i've been watching your videos since you've started.

Instead of an app this could be a good fit for a Website based SaaS. You could still offer the weekly email report but also show real time statistics in the app. I think that would be a good product for a lot of content creators. Start with youtube and include also instagram, tiktok, etc. later as well🚀

My man dropping breaking bad references thought we woundn't notice!!

Awesome editing and really cool project!

Keep on going. Love your channel!

Amazing video. Also loved the vlog parts :)

I totally feel you on the API drudgery, I’m glad it’s not just me!

Great video! Keep up the work man :)

I read 120 seconds 😂

next time you see a wasp just open the windows :) ,that thing wanted to go out already but window was closed

HALLDEN IS SO BACKKKK

Try Postman for testing APIs

Its always the parenthesis, brackets, or curly braces. Fellow python, java, and C# programmer 8:38

Open the window next time, I usually do that for flies to go out.

Yes, this would be a great idea to start with. An app sounds amazing!

kale is back finally

Since its summer in sweden (same here in finland) take break outdoor near by beach. Then come back to resolve it.

BTW, if you didn't find joy in resolving a rather trivial bug during development, then you will absolutely hate resolving issues in a production application.

Auth-entic and inspiring video, keep going and make that amazing app 😎

youtube need to hire this man

This video is a whole ass vibe 🎉❤

Turn it into an application. It’s a cool SaaS idea!

cool stuff! What to do you think of ai and coding? for me, The way things are headed , Ai won't be replacing coders anytime soon!

POV: The last outro was a phone call to all his viewers.

for helping to hit the top, ty for your work

I'm looking where you said I shouldn't look.

Is there a reason you prefer to navigate from the code editor to the terminal and back every time you make a change to the code and want to re-run it? Why not just use the in-built terminal in VSCode? Using 'cmd+j' to toggle the terminal is pretty handy!

Bruh! you inspired me to learn Flutter.

Good Idea how you came up with a video like that, so glad i saw it and wish the best of luck to you

Hey Hal, Feel like you blue balled me here. Excellent video, but in my opinion, the end fell apart. Would have loved an overview of where you got to with each component, maybe an architecture or something, but the video felt like an infinite crescendo leaving me wanting more. Love the time and effort, just a small piece of unsolicited feedback! Keep up the good work!

You know the series is good if you start chasing the fly.....

I think an app would be a better idea. Because then, it could be useful for other creators as well.

Cool video, I hope the success continues

Hey Hallden!! Watched the whole video for your RU-vid metrics

Making a app and selling it and making money from it is always a good idea.

Couldn’t wait for this vid :D

Yes! Make an app. I'll be a trial user with my channel to test your MVPs

Great video. yeah go with the app. it's more practical

plz never give up and be a doer..

This motivated me to finish that side project I have

An app is defnitely more suitable in that case. But how bad can the youtube api be that authentication doesn't last for at least 30 minutes?

you actually , inspired me to work on my project 3:49 Am ,😂😂

Lets get this guy to 100k views!!!

Glad you're back 😊

9:19 slap-in-the-face wins are 90% of my wins when troubleshooting -.-

Brother, I am a big fan, would like to advise, you need to continue into a full flag company.

Hey, I was a subscriber awhile back but the reason I unsubscribed is because you got out of coding and it was more personal blog like... which I didn't personally like. If you are back to coding, I'm in man, keep it up!

Man I feel for people who use untyped languages. Truly living life on hard mode
