Re: What you refuse to see, is your worst trap
in thread What you refuse to see, is your worst trap
This meditation tends to valid my philosophy of "Never profess to be an expert on anything", because chances are I'm probably not.
It also provides an interesting perspective on what I have observed about myself since I started working as a programmer (previously I was an engineer) a few months ago, namely that my programming methods and skills have been lacking in many areas, but are improving. Now I wonder how many other bad practices I have that I am blissfully unaware of.
I suppose as long as I continue to look back at my previously written code in disgust/dismay etc, then I at least have some chance of continuing to improve. Of course, peer reviews are also a good idea, although I don’t know if my fragile ego will cope. :)
