I don't. I use my limited spare time outside of work to study.
- notlisted 11y agoBut you did… at one point? (note that I wrote: "Active development not required").
- sheepmullet 11y agoLast time I had a side project was at uni. So a bit over a decade ago. At the time I was 90% theory/learning (Uni) and 10% practical, so adding in a side project to increase the practical side was very valuable. These days I'm 90% practical (work) and so adding extra L&D/theory is much more valuable to me than spending another hour coding.
