To write good code, you first have to write a lot of bad code.

As a Software Engineer, don't compare your progress to others. It either leaves you feeling behind or ahead — neither of which is very helpful.

Coding never came easily to me, but it's safe to say, I'm glad I stuck with it.

The best software engineers have one thing in common and it's not knowledge of a specific language, framework, or technology. It's the ability to grok new information quickly and efficiently and apply it to a problem.

Most of software engineering is about reading code, not writing it.

If code requires an explanation it also requires a refactor.

The real thinking in Software Engineering starts after 30 minutes.

Google is the only place in the world where I still have WiFi in the elevators

Most of coding is silent thinking

If you have unit tests you can safely refactor. If you don't, you can't.

Write unit tests ✅✅❌

Nothing in software engineering is intrinsically hard to grasp. Concepts become hard to understand because they're built on countless others. If you don't understand something, the problem likely stems from your knowledge of an underlying dependency, not the thing itself.

If you see code on my screen, don't talk to me, I'm thinking

I got good at coding by accident.

I “accidentally“ struggled through a four-year computer science degree.
I “accidentally“ studied the many things I didn't understand in the library for hours each day.
And I “accidentally“ pursued becoming better at my craft for an extended period of time after college.

If you also want to “accidentally“ get good at coding too, be intentional about your time and the decisions you make; it's worth it.

What did you do to get good at coding? 👇

Writing bad code is a necessary prerequisite to learning how to write good code

#coding #programming #softwareengineering
Software Engineers are good at one thing and one thing only: purposely overestimating tickets

#coding #programming #softwareengineering
Most coding tasks can be accomplished with two simple things:
1. Reading
2. Patience

#softwareengineering #coding #programming
Programming languages are just tools to build things. Saying one language is the best is like saying a hammer is the best; it doesn't make sense. Choose the best tool for the job. The “best“ tool will change depending on what you're building.

Coding really isn't that hard...
