- coolsunglasses 12y agoSure! But if the daily coding is predicated on a sense that, "this is how one becomes great" it is not sufficient for that goal. It's easy to become complacent. Most people are.
- weavie 12y agoI would say shipping is definitely life improving. Shipping is where you expose your work to the public and open it up to feedback and criticism. You can learn a lot more from direct feedback than you can learn from a general book. I have far too many books and half finished projects that will never get finished. I have forgotten most of the stuff I learned from them.
