  • Part of being a developer is solving your problems and reduce complexity in a very complex field. So I guess when you want to be a good dev, most of that is part of your learning experience.

    To your skills. I may suggest do what you like to do. Wanna tinker with Linux and systems? C/C++ or Rust may be a good start. Webdev? Have a look at typescript. Or just do some stuff in python (it’s really fun)

    If you do not know what you like. No problem, just play around with stuff and find out what you like.

    If you get stuck on something, THEN is moment to reach out for help. You hardly will have to pay for advice, there is always a helpful hand if you can describe what your problem is.


















  • I would say there are two types of devs.

    The HACKER MAN knowing everything, always have the only solution and being boss in their realm

    The DAUBTER thinking they know too less, always searching for the best solution for the problem and trying to get as many information to solve the problem as possible


    Even having the imposter syndrome as a big problem for mental health. I genuinely have the opinion it makes the better devs.
