But I think maybe the worst thing of all is time pressure.
Learning things is so much easier if you have NO TIME PRESSURE. And if you let it happen largely in your sleep, as well.

@hosford42@techhub.social @ZBennoui@dragonscave.space @zakalwe@plasmatrap.com @marionline@autistics.life Good reading for programmers to REALLY LEARN FROM has long been out of print. It is Edsger Dijkstra’s ‘A Discipline of Programming’. That it is out of print is proof that the field has become much, much stupider than it used to be. It is immensely more stupid than it used to be. This rush to use Rust is so stupid, for instance. It is just the latest fad. Rust sucks. If it were actually about safety, everything would already have been rewritten in Ada!
