If this doesn’t get you hyped for the regular season I don’t know what will, I could watch Steph and 1 threes all day.

The most important aspect of creativity and innovation is not being afraid to fail.

One very important thing that even the smartest people seem to have to learn from experience is taste in problems. There are juicy problems that tend to lead to interesting discoveries, and nasty problems that tend not to.
read their blogs, go through their project on github, watch their talks. i have learnt a lot that way from people like @Ope__O , @_alternatewolf, @MoVonLagos, and my mentor @lanreadelowo and non of them barely know me personally.
just speaking from my own experience, and i dont expect this path to work for everyone, but read a lot. find engineers whose work you respect and just follow their work. you dont always have to DM people asking how to start. most of them already put so much out there
Replying to @triplemcoderr
Are languages still barriers to entry? I mean, there is this AI craze. I still think mastery of a language is improtant but is it tho, when you can just describe or work with an AI agent?
