This doesn't improve you much unless you're really new or skilled at challenging at yourself and finding new things to learn.
If the latter is true, do you really need advice?
Said differently: flow is the opiate of the masses.
- jeresig 13y agoNot everything has to be a life-improving challenge - sometimes you just want to ship some code!
- coolsunglasses 13y agoSure! But if the daily coding is predicated on a sense that, "this is how one becomes great" it is not sufficient for that goal. It's easy to become complacent. Most people are.
- weavie 13y agoI would say shipping is definitely life improving. Shipping is where you expose your work to the public and open it up to feedback and criticism. You can learn a lot more from direct feedback than you can learn from a general book. I have far too many books and half finished projects that will never get finished. I have forgotten most of the stuff I learned from them.
