The main reason behind tech layoffs? Smaller teams are more efficient and create higher quality software.

the amount of bullshit modern frontend has is insane and what's more insane is how web dev influencers keep on selling courses about the best practices to add useless layers of abstractions to your frontend

You took a JavaScript bootcamp, made a few basic web apps just like the tutorials showed you, and now you’re writing “engineer” in your bio. You feel like an imposter because you are one brother 🤣🤣

If you’re learning web development, I would suggest everyone to document their learning simultaneously on X. Nothing else needs to be done by you. All you need to do is share your daily progress via an X thread, tips, or perhaps a few quick videos. For instance, if you're learning about virtual DOM, be sure to write a thread covering the entire subject. This will have double benefits, you will understand the topic better, plus you teach others. But why? I started doing this when I first started to learn web development back in 2020. I used to share my daily progress. It ended up being the best thing I've ever done. • It will help you build an audience • More job offers • Enhance personal branding • Generate passive income Daily efforts of 15 to 30 minutes can make a significant impact. So if you’re a student or learning any tech, make sure to document as you go.

More hard problems are solved on a walk, in a shower, etc., than at the desk.

Stop putting things off, go to YouTube, learn to code, and build projects. Continue for 6 to 12 months. You'll be able to make a good living.

Some days, you read more code than you write. And sometimes, reading others' code teaches you way more than writing code yourself. Today was one of those days. Reading code and planning the next feature.

People often ask about the best programming languages to learn. Ever notice why interviewers say you can code in any language of you choice in the general interviews? Because programming language doesn’t matter. What matters most is your ability to break down a problem into smaller parts, build logic in simple English, and solve it. Learn logic building first! You can learn the syntax of various programming languages online in 5 minutes.

Nobody really cares about the tech stack you use. If you have a great product, it doesn't matter if it's written in PHP or JavaScript.

We’ve reached peak Slack. Doesn’t make sense for a startup team of 3. Doesn’t work anymore for a company of 300.
