I find "Programmers are also human" quite funny as well. Interviews with stereotypes.

They are funny but the format gets kinda old after a few videos.

Agreed. I think this is one of the formats which would admittedly do better as a 30s reel than a 2-3min video. The gags about a junior JS developer or a grisly old C++ master are super funny, but there’s only so much material there.

Did you not enjoy the Microsoft Excel videos?

The stereotype premise is funny but the jokes don't land very often. The jump cuts where he repeats words are also not jokes at all.

The recent video about the T3 stack just lists off names of libraries that we're all forced to use. I get that it's relatable but there's a difference between funny and relatable.

Hard disagree, those are the most hilarious parts to me. Best example of this is the ffmpeg video.

Fireship is very different, but also highly worth a subscription.

I’ve tried to show it to my gf, who is v funny btw, and she had no idea what parts were supposed to be funny.

Is she an Amazon SDE or SF techie or very similar? Does she enjoy deadpan, droll, amd non sequitur?

If not, yeah.
