  • That people don’t just pull tricks out their butt. (Unless you are in horgwats, of course)

    Any maestro in their fields that you meet (be it BMX biker, stunt drivers, programmer, singer, painter, even a handy man) know that they dedicated 10+ hours daily in perfecting themselves in that domain.

    The beauty of this is that anyone, even you, can be a maestro at what you love.

    Just put in the work, the hours. Surround yourself with maestros in your field, for quick assists.

    You will get there :)



  • In any software development timeline given, triple it to be safe!

    Programmers don’t just pull perfect codes from their butts

    Programming languages (yes, in some scenarios, even python) are hell to work with. And yes, I know developer experience has gotten so much better compared to 5 years ago. Still, there are too many unknowns.

    It’s like trying to shush a crying baby. Trying every trick on the book to put her back to sleep. But naaah, all she does is cry (no reasons, no hints)

    This makes a half-an-hour job take 2 days (hence the unknown delays and setbacks)

    If you meet a programmer that pulls a rough prototype of a single module inside a program in a few seconds and works immediately. Know that he/she has 10+ years of experience in that language domain.

    i.e. that one granny that “feels the baby” and knows what it wants, making the baby calm immediately.
