A comment on Ask HN: As a developer what are your aha moments?. Parent comment
- whatever cool code you write, if you can't sell it, it is useless
- every dev should work as support tech for some period. then only you understand what your customer needs and challenges in debugging
- Before adopting any new tech, always always look how difficult it is to debug when shit breaks
- keep things simple, so you can have peaceful sleep
- You will never learn everything, accpet this. Learning is continuous process. Just learn to stay curious, that's all.
- learn more and more CS fundamentals instead of getting certs in over-hyped products
- if you want to learn coding, code. don't watch video tutorials.
code can be valuable in more ways than just ‘someone will pay money for this’.
