What advice would you give to someone who is trying to teach themselves software development skills? I’m doing that right now, and I’m finding it easy to understand, yet difficult to implement in computer code. I want to move onto more advanced stuff, but I feel that I don’t have enough experience quite yet. What skills/courses would you recommend I take? How did you get better on your coding journey? Any tips to make the process go faster? Thanks in advance!

    i think it’s all good for growth, good or bad - learning to evaluate it can start any time. Even if you don’t know whether it’s good or bad, you’re learning to recognize patterns, evaluate quality and build up opinions. If it’s bad, why, what would you change? If you don’t know it’s bad, you’re just noting a new pattern to try/compare to the others.

    You’ve got to develop your own opinions about things anyway, might as well get better at reading/evaluating code sooner than later
