> How do you go from good to great Programmer You learn go for that. Sorry. I think a great way to improve your codebase is to write unit tests, integration tests and by using languages with more types than say, JavaScript or PHP. If the language has a lot of conventions for types, you can add satisfiability resolvers (SAT resolvers) and what kind of assumed safety/security comes with that. Also, do capture the flag events online (e.g. picoCTF is a great start) which teaches you a lot about naive assumptions and programming mistakes and the reasons _why_ you should never use C++ for anything critical, and why memory ownership always fails when humans do not agree on conventions.
