   Banks are extremely nonfunctional in Baltic countries probably because of how little people live there. I think there is a large potential for good international banks.

   I especially like the exact moment during the workout when you feel that "blood starts flowing in the head again" and you gain some sort of clarity. Especially if I've been working really hard that day.

    I think that experience in shipping and experience in maintaining a project is largely different. I'd rather work with someone who has maintained one live project, rather than with someone who has shipped 5. Especially on mobile. Shipp

    In the gamedev, I would not want to work with someone just because he has built a game on his own. Gamedev is notorious for having a low barrier of entry and then there is an exponential learning curve. I'd rather work with someone who

    Don’t learn languages, learn frameworks instead. Pick a problem and find the most popular frameworks that are used to solve it. Learning language just for the sake of it is useless.

    Thanks for the rich and insightful answer. I poorly phrased the "career" part of the question. Noone is pushing me to do more. What I meant was that I feel I can do better for the sake of the project and my own development but bec
