What technology skills you should focus on next
- angersock 12y agoHere's a simple heuristic: focus on the skills you are completely alien to. If you're a web developer, learn low-level native code. If you're a seasoned neckbeard, learn front-end Javascript and CSS. If you're an awesome developer, learn about provisioning systems and doing administration and automation. If you're a sysadmin, learn programming. If you're really "practical" (engineer, coder, sysadmin) in your day-to-day, spend some time learning about academic topics. ~ You need to always be throwing yourself out into places where you aren't comfortable, because that's how you'll build the skills that will help you stand out and be most useful.
