“I could build this on the Twilio API!” “I could learn that new CSS framework!” "I could use this new tool I just purchased!” I've never thought this way when I learn about some new technology...my way of thinking has always been "This task I'm doing really sucks, how can I make it easier?" This way of thinking seems so much more intuitive and less mentally taxing. Do others here really think the way the author describes? I'm curious.
