Interesting perspective. I've been sort of on the other side of the fence and excited about new features. With that said, I do love the simplicity of C and how the features of the language itself are very minimal and learning all of

I've found that React isn't comparable to larger frameworks like Angular and Ember. While the latter two provide a sort of "batteries included" solution, React is simply "just the ui". There are many articles

I have this problem as well and can agree with other commenters that physical exercise seems to help. In addition to not getting enough sleep, I often dream about programming and my mind is reeling all night trying to solve some issue.

I can relate a bit to this article. Although, I never find myself "hating" what I do per se, but I definitely find myself looking for something more "difficult". I've done the same as the OP, bought C books, read

I recommend JavaScript. Finding contractor work should be fairly easy if you are able to build web applications. In addition, learn Node so you can write backends for those web apps in JavaScript as well. When I was in school I focused pr

There is no harm in either. Overall, just have fun and learn JavaScript :) ES5 is the current standard in all major browsers, so using its functionality could be considered "safe". Thankfully we have transpilers (will convert yo

I recently got into watches and have been following the company they merged for a the past year or so. It's been an awesome resource for learning about the community and the craftsmanship behind mechanical watches. I recommend them t

The final point of the argument is the best to me. I originally chose using React because it appeared different from everything else. Thus far I feel I have been able to be much more productive and also think about things in my web applic

Not sure if I agree with that 100%. Not every job listing you find online is going to have salaries posted.

Weird, I was thinking the same thing and came here to comment about it. Glad I'm not alone.

The vertical split recommendation is really great. I agree with the author that I always forget and often times end up doing horizontal.

Wow this brings back some memories. I attribute AOL to all of my programming curiosity and success. When I was around 11 or 12, my dad put in me in front of AOL 2.5 and from there I was curious how things worked. I quickly got involved i

As a guitarist B.B. King has always been one of the defining guitar players for me. His style is unmatched and distinct. We lost one of the greats today and I am forever grateful for what impact he and his music has had on my life.
