#RealProgrammers

If you aren’t learning, you aren’t growing, you are coasting. #realProgrammers

Yes, #realProgrammers reinvent the wheel, but only after we are confident that the wheel we need doesn’t yet exist. We do it when we know why we are doing it, and can defend the decision when called to do so because honestly, this is always the most expensive choice.

GOOD MORNING @SunShinePHP ! Pour some coffee down your neck and join me at 9:00 for “Think Like a Programmer” #realProgrammers

I was knocked out by Covid last week, so even I missed this, my own article, when it went live! But I tremendous fun building @bikeandfly's 64-bit core memory kit, and discovering how expandable & hackable it is. #Retrocomputing #RealProgrammers

#realProgrammers are always learning.

The Golden Rule of finding a mentor is “Thou shalt not waste your mentor’s time”. #realProgrammers

A mentor is a spirit animal for a stage in your career, not your Uber driver. #realProgrammers

As programmers, we have to make sure that we spend more time understanding WHY we are writing the code, and less time understanding HOW we write it. We need to constantly be working to master the concepts behind proper software design. #realProgrammers

#RealProgrammers! ...and also the other regularly scheduled hashtags: #programmers #coding #webcomic

Writing code is almost always the most expensive solution to the problem. That's why #realprogrammers look around to see what is already there before they write their own.

#realProgrammers take their time. #realProgrammers do not ship code that they are not confident in. #realProgrammers focus on the quality of their work and not the quantity.

#RealProgrammers don't do UX. If it was hard to write, it should be hard to operate! </sarcasm>

Whomever said “don’t reinvent the wheel” was an idiot. That is some of the worst advice any computer programmer can give to another programmer. #realProgrammers reinvent the wheel all the time. #realProgrammers have a huge pile of non-working wheels out back to prove it.

“Learning to learn… takng a concept from a blog post or book and apply it to a real world problem is the most critical any #realprogrammers must master." @CalEvans #SunPHP20

#realProgrammers write code. - Yes, the plan - Yes, they draw up design documents - Yes, they do a discovery phase But at the end of the day, you know you are a real programmer if you wrote code. If you didn't, you may not be a #realprogrammer.
