Things that sabotage great developers: 1. Ego 2. Self-doubt 3. Bad habits 4. Procrastination 5. Lack of clear goals 6. Weak fundamentals 7. Fear of missing out (FOMO) Get rid of them, and your career will skyrocket.
Far too many developer dreams were crushed in the LeetCode rabbit hole. But until FAANG companies find a better way to interview people, the madness will continue.
Your periodic reminder that crypto market volatility is a machine for transferring wealth from high neuroticism people to low neuroticism people.
I don’t know about over-employed. But most developers I talk to these days are definitely overworked. Cheers to taking a break.
Message to self. The world not being a perfect place is not an excuse for you to give everything less than your best.
With everyone trying to be an influencer these days, going dark and executing might be your best bet. The world needs more software developers than it needs Kim Kardashians.
Developers, how many of you will ONLY work remotely?
Game developers getting laid off should really consider launching their own games. I am sick of big studios milking the same cow with decades-old series. We need some new sagas, new storylines, new ideas.
If everything you see is problems, you might just be burned out. Often, we forget that no matter how much you love your job, you still need to take a break. Good stuff can burn you out too.
I believe the biggest motivator of great software developers is not money but freedom. Freedom to work, build, and live the way you want. With all the difficulties this job has, the freedom it gives you makes it all worth it.
If I were to write a book about becoming a great software developer. I would focus a third of it on how to stay mentally and physically fit. Nothing beats being able to show up fresh and healthy month after month and working towards your goals.
Knowing gives you perspective. Doing gives you results. Know without doing and you will get no results. Do without knowing and you will probably do the wrong thing. To make progress you need both.
Senior dev leadership example: Be tolerant with others, but strict with yourself. The best Senior devs I know did not micromanage nor control their teams. They led by example. People followed them because they wanted to be them. Not because they feared the consequences.
Instead of worrying about AI replacing you. Invest that time in improving your skills. Trust me, you won’t get replaced any time soon.
Tomorrow is our first day at #CityJSBerlin, we will open this conference with our friends @prisma and @sorenbs We got 6⃣ speakers @ruheni_alex @theSeniorDev88 @TejasKumar_ @appfactory @BleedingDev @danielhe4rt Last few tickets left berlin.cityjsconf.org
On Developer CVs... Too many devs get distracted by fonts, colors, and formatting. When in fact the only thing that matter is the content. It is what's inside the sandwich, not the packaging. If you want them to buy the burger, make them smell the bacon.
Hey folks, I will be speaking at the CityJS conference in Berlin later this Wednesday. Would love to see you and catch up if you are around :) Tickets here: berlin.cityjsconf.org/buytickets Thank you @cityjsconf for the opportunity and for setting everything up!
#CityJSBerlin is set to host some of the world's most brilliant minds in 20 days! Save a ticket 🎟️berlin.cityjsconf.org #javascript #techevent #conference #community @codepo8 @TejasKumar_ @rachelnabors @metisdata @TheAlexLichter @ElianCodes @arisa_dev @mx_schmitt
Do yourself a favor this weekend: DON'T watch the news. Go for a run instead. Or read a good book. Your future self will thank you for it.

I published the latest episode of my podcast & newsletter last week & forgot to tell anyone about it 😅 I spoke with Dragos of @theSeniorDev88 about the skills developers need to reach a senior level. Key takeaways… It's not all technical skills! buff.ly/3F6tiXD
I’ve spent 10+ hours compiling the best copywriting threads from Twitter 💸 The lessons here could be applied to any skill: Email marketing Funnel building Landing pages I could easily sell this for $1000+ Like and comment “copy” and I’ll send it over. (must follow)
The best developers I know have never posted a single tweet. 😅
@theSeniorDev88 Yes it can, and I wrote a little tool that does the documentation part :) github.com/ingig/code-nar…
I wonder what 16 year old me would say if he saw this screenshot. I was 5 years into making content still getting basically 0 views a video and everyone kept telling me I was crazy and to quit. I bet he wouldn’t believe this is real lol
So how can I keep up to date with all the new stuff as a developer? You don’t have to. Focus on the tech that’s paying your bills right now. Master that deeply. And you will do just fine. You can still spend 5% of your time checking out what’s new. But don’t chase it.
If you don’t invest in yourself, how do you expect others to do it?
I’ve found that the best therapists are other developers. Particularly friends that went through the same.
Must-reads for JS Developers: 1. JavaScript: Secrets of the JavaScript Ninja 2. Career: The Pragmatic Programmer 3. Interviews: System Design Interview 4. Interviews: Grokking Algorithms 5. Mindest: The Six Pillars Of Self-Esteem 6. Productivity: Deep Work 7. Focus: Essentialism
Your biggest enemy as a Developer is not: 1. Pressure 2. Tight deadlines 3. Changing technology It is burnout. If you want to be in this game for long. Learn how to set boundaries. And prioritize yourself.

Trying To Do Too Much As A Developer? Watch This! #theseniordev
I am a big fan of React, but doing things “The React Way” sometimes feels like following a bunch of workarounds that could be a lot more explicit. Particularly those damn hooks.
You either make progress or make excuses. Pick one.
