This makes me wonder - what do you plan to learn in 2020? What do you see as in that phase now? As someone that is nearly 40 and has a family your goals seem fairly in line with mine. Not enough time to follow all the new hype, but need to keep up to stay employable.
- scarface74 7y agoI spent the last two or three years learning all of the core fiddly bits of AWS. In 2020, my goals are more about “sharpening the saw” by going deeper in C#/.Net Core and the related frameworks, Typescript and Python. Also focusing on documentation, architectural diagramming and communicating more clearly with non technical people - “the business”. I’m hedging bets between preparing for a “right now” job or contract as an engineer if things go sideways and the “right job” when the time comes as overpriced consultant working for a consulting company. Most of my time studying outside of work is done by watching videos on my AppleTV in my home gym while working out. Luckily, now part of my job is what they call unofficially “special operations” - to do proof of concepts using a technology and coming up with documentation and deployment strategies.
