I feel similarly. Its satisfying to feel that you know what you are doing rather than just randomly trying things and copying stack overflow. Every few months I get the realization that the things that I considered too hard are now simple.
Its also really cool having so many opportunities available for personal projects.

- tlear 7y agoThe thing with mastery in software is that it is a fleeting thing. There is always more and more and more.. Number of “masters” I have met in my career who were really barely intermediate in a narrow area. I been doing it since my early teens and I am in my 40s now, I am really really good. But master no.
