I've begun using a Trello board to keep track of the skills I want to pick-up and things I want to learn.
I have the lists "Heard about it", "Read about it", "Learning it", "Done with it". Today, for example, I added: "Learn about using Git bisect to trace bugs" to the Read about it board. Will probably play with it next weekend.
This is a new workflow for me, but so far it's working well.
- pestaa 14y agoHow many skills are there already and can you show us some more examples please?
- aerique 14y agoI know "me too" is bad form but since upvotes to pestaa's reply can't be seen this is the only way I can show encoderer that more people would be interested in more examples. (Blog it up if it would be too big for a reply.)
- encoderer 14y agoLearn and create my own Chef cookbooks vs just using Vagrant now. Heard about using dsh as a, more or less, a reverse SSH proxy. Figure out and use South django migrations. Implement a bloom filter. Implementing a bayesian filter made it so much more understandable to me, I figure this would work the same. There's a few other, more specific ones. But this is a fairly new workflow for me. I like the idea somebody mentioned about keeping a rough idea of how many hours you've spent on it.
- lhnz 14y agoThanks for this. I may well augment what I already do with this. What I have which you don't do is on the "learning it" stage (although I don't categorise explicitly in this way) I have a square bracket with a number inside which I use to keep track of how many hours I'm working on each thing. You can see if you're spending too much time on something, or whether you've only done an hour (pretty useless, etc)
