- Let me show you my experience with a story You have Sam and Indra who are programmers. Sam is very creative and thinks ahead, he loves to add new ideas how code can be reused later again. If a product owner presents him a story, Sams goal is to make the programming brilliant and ready to be extended. He adds ideas as well. Indras strategy is fundamentally different. She sticks to the specification and implements everything as she gets told to do. Question: Who is the better programmer Most people would say Sam. A room full of Sams / Indras Just imagine lots of people like Sam get together. I see a room full of creative people, talking loudly. Everyone has great ideas, everyone raises the idea of new libraries and using cutting edge technologies. You realise that most of the Sams are pretty convinced about their skills. They talk a lot, but not listen. A room of Indras is quite different. They wait until they get their specifications. if there is noone taking the lead, it can get really quiet. They write down what they got told. What about a project after time The projects of the Sams is not going well. Sam 1, who implemented the core, has left the team as he was fighting with sam 2 and 3 all the time. sam 4 who took over the code of Sam 1 is complaining all the time because no one can really understand the code. Sam 1 wanted to show how smart he is and he shortened the code in a way that readability suffered. The Sams are continously testing new versions and they struggle with legacy. Sam 3 had a brilliant idea of using a framework. Turns out it does not meet the requirements of the client so well and the team is struggling to get the use cases done. Lets switch to Indra… After two months, they are waiting still for the spec. If something is rolled out, it has been tested three or four times. It turns out that the specs are wrong in the third month, so they start over. As you see, both are not good. Now comes the excellent programmer. He or she is persistent to get all the requirements and asks if there are strange questions. The excellent programmer only programs what is really needed. He may program for extensibily if the client depands it, but apart from that he sticks to the specification.
- You are either willing to be a forever student, or you should be considering something else.
- You are responsible for building websites with technologies such as Html, CSS, Javascript. You can build responsive mobile websites, and learn more advanced tech like React, AngularJS etc. I would put here the iOS and Android development work which is also fun to work on and is quite hot for the past 10 years.

- Programming needs to be a habit in your life in order to get really good with it. write code everyday for at least the coming 2 years of your life. Nothing to write? read about that technology or framework. Like Edison says, “Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration”. There are no shortcuts. Practice. Practice. Practice!

- Language != Religion = True. It always evaluates to TRUE. Don’t think that the language you write programs with is some sort of religion and the bad folks out there will burn with JAVA in the hell.
