Despite initial struggles and criticism, Interview Coder eventually went viral, which helped secure my position in the tech industry.

I realized that the attention from virality was crucial, as the product's relevance would diminish once companies changed their interview processes.

My first big video was counting to 100,000, which blew up because it was so absurd and got a lot of reactions.

I started making videos because I wanted to make money while watching anime, which led to my first viral video.

I publicly demonstrated using Interview Coder during an Amazon interview, highlighting how easy it is to hack the interview process.

To validate the need for Dropbox, I created a demo video that gained significant traction on Hacker News, which helped us get into Y Combinator.

I interviewed at Yelp multiple times, and even after failing an interview at Facebook, I was able to leverage that experience for future opportunities.

When I left Google, I needed time to explore what others were doing and to figure out what I wanted to pursue next. I made a VR project for The Weather Channel that became my favorite because it was immediately apparent and hilarious, showcasing how comedy can be created in VR without relying on traditional slapstick humor.

In 2005, it became common to see people huddled around laptops watching the latest viral videos, marking a dawning era of the internet, with videos like a Saturday Night Live clip and a Nike ad reaching a million views, while we also realized that YouTube was consuming a significant portion of the internet's bandwidth, a technical achievement that many didn't fully understand at the time.
