I was wrapped up in pre-nft blockchain hype 2017-2019. It didn't work out. I learned that not every salient technology is ready for adoption or will leave a legacy. My top few: - practice reading code that is older you're comfortable working with, that you did not write and have no prior knowledge base for - designing systems that are easy to replace; no matter what tech comes along, new tech will come after, and we're not going to live in the world where X lasts for Y time, it will be Y/c (some fraction) - writing well, that's tailored to specific audiences, aided by whatever tools are available (spell check, grammerly, chatgpt, etc) - as far as tech itself goes, I'm hopeful about edge computing, where performance and power is near today's level, for an extended time I see a lot of doomsdayism here. I recommend avoiding that, it's a tough and awful away to live.
