-
- Get to know the frameworks and libraries you use. knowing how something works makes you know how to use it better. if they're open source, you're really in luck. use the debugger to step through the code to see what's going on under the hood. you'll get to see code written and reviewed by some really smart people.
-
- Understand the framework you are using. Knowing how something works can help you better use it. If they are open-source, you will be lucky. Debug the code to each step to check what happened at the underlying layer. You will learn how to write code and review for excellent people.

- Ever run a static analysis tool over the code base or look at the warnings in your ide? Understand what they're reporting and why.
- Follow the advice of the pragmatic programmers and learn a new language every year. At least learn a new technology or tool. branching out gives you new ideas you can use in your current technology stack.
-
- I used to run a static analysis tool based on the Code or view the warning in IDE? Understand what they reported and why. Follow the advice from the pragmatic programmers website to learn a new language each year. Learn at least one new technology or tool. The branch can give you new ideas, and you can use it together with your current technology.
-
- Not everything you learn has to be about technology. learn the domain you're working in so you can better understand the requirements and help solve the business problem. learning how to be more productive-how to work better-is another good option.

It wocould be nice to have the capability that neo had inThe Matrix, And simply download the information we needed into our brains. but we don't, so it will take a time commitment. you don't have to spend every waking hour learning. A little time, say each week, is better than nothing. there is (or shocould be) a life outside of work.
I'm glad NEO has the ability to simply download the information we need to my brain on matrix. But we don't. It will take time. You do not need to spend any time learning. A small amount of time, for each week, is better than not. Besides work and life.
Technology changes fast. Don't get left behind.
Rapid technological changes. Don't lag behind.
