Books, generally speaking, have changed my life for the better. I curate my reading list and only mindfully read what is beneficial to me.

The more I practiced mindful reading, the better I got at many things (from work, finances, to friendship and marriage).

I can attribute this to what seems pretty obvious - apply what you learn or think deeply about it to understand its meaning to you.

For the last couple of years, I've only had these directories: dev, test and prod.

Whatever I am working on or learning goes in dev, whatever is ready for testing or experimentation goes in test. Everything else goes in prod.

But I have been thinking of expanding on this.

Thanks for sharing the article. I might gain some inspiration.

In my interactions with Marijn, he’s been very responsive. I’m happy to see this release and wish him continued success.

I learned JS from the second edition.

Incredible resource.

I particularly enjoyed this quote

>“The main thing is finding something that you enjoy doing, that preferably doesn’t harm others, and that tests whatever aptitude one has, that tests one’s ingenuity,”

This saddened me. Best of luck, truly.

I maintain physical and digital notes on my coding. Since I review them frequently, I find them helpful. The notes help me track progress or try out new ideas. Sometimes the very acting of writing reinforces my understanding of new and even old concepts. I would recommend most developers keep a journal of some sort and review it regularly.

Yes, absolutely!
