Did you forget? Computers are fast!

It seems people have forgotten just how fast and powerful computers are and how much they keep evolving, let's remind ourselves.

Honestly, I think software dev/engineers should try to do these kind of things, even if they never finish it, so I’m sharing this. The books don’t have a lot of pages so you should be able to get through a significant chunk of them, and they’re FREE

Or just fucking learn SQL and quit making abominations. Computers have gotten faster and software has only gotten slower because no one actually wants to learn how things work; yes, this is also a self-sub.

I like this guy, and I like this take. I’ve always told people around me, I’m tryna be an engineer, not just a dev, it’s why I don’t use “software engineer” as a title yet (nothing to do with actually studying it in uni), it is fine if you are okay with being a dev and don’t care

Writing code doesn't seem like the hardest part for me when I build something that doesn't remain in a private repo (i.e meant to be used by other people), it's figuring out how to explain exactly what it does in a way everyone would understand.

I get a lot of questions on what to learn next as a backend dev or how to even learn these things, I don’t have the grand experience a lot the bigger devs have but here’s my two cents. It all comes down to exploring, experimenting and just not being okay with “functional enough”
