I didn't mean to say ALL of them obviously, I just meant to say that a lot of devs who only learned to code in college, usually don't code for fun, just code to get the job done. By no means are they bad programmers, in fact they

As someone who interviewed dozens of bootcampers I can give some insight. 1) Most of the bootcamps teach the basic of front-end, and a lot of them, teach by doing without explaining a lot of basic concepts. They are basically money grabbers

At this point, I really can no longer give anyone an advice. JS frameworks/libs/concepts come as fast as they go, it's hard keep up. Eg: Last week React was awesome and the defacto framework to learn, but then to the it'

Exactly this. In fact (as someone who only knows Swift for mobile dev) learning React was my first step to get into React-Native, so I can make iOS and Android apps.

If I was reading your post 3 months ago, I would completely agree with you. But learning React/Redux and Webpack is not that hard at all, just focus on one and move on to the next. WebPack is dead easy IMO, Redux is just an design con

I love coffee, "wake up and smell the coffee" has a true meaning to me. I usually drink one or two cups of black (no sugar) coffee every morning, and 2 espressos during the rest of the day. I exercise on a daily basis, I eat well

I don't see the point of including my previous salaries in my resume. What I earned 5 years ago, does not represent my value in sector today, even if it's for the same skillset. It's the companies job to post how much are the

It comes to my mind Unity (game engine), they have a very good business model. Their offer a free version to anyone willing to try, and premium tiers for more serious developers or companies.

I've always hated the Delphi ecosystem, awesome IDE, good-enough language, but everything else sucked, specially if you are a young programmer with limited money, you couldn't learn it unless you pirated it, even .NET had a free v

I still remember Digg. Great community, but once they changed the UX and some features, everything went downhill.

Maybe I'm old school, but I really hope developers give a serious thought before jumping into this vendor lock-in trap. This is specially concerning if not scary, when you start to "outsource" the backend business rules to so

I'm with you on Swift as well, beautiful language. But regarding JS, nobody these days write vanilla JS, most of devs are either using ES6 or TypeScript(which supports types and generics).

Honest question: Are chatbots really used or is just a nice-thing to have? When I visit website and the chatbot pops up it really feels like it disrupts MY browsing, I immediately turn it off. I really wanted to if chatbots can translate in

Last week I permanently deleted my FaceBook account. All my data since 2007 (10 years) and friends gone. Well...apparently my data is still somewhere to be used as metadata... Still, I must say, this was a liberating experience. I don'

I don't agree with the "5. Quit pretending to be an extrovert." Sure, in the first stages you will feel uncomfortable, your heart rate will spike. But I think it's good to practice being more extrovert. I don't mean
