Is your subconscious mind sabotaging you?

Your subconscious mind holds onto beliefs that could be unhelpful.

They might reflect another time in your life or a completely different context than the one you’re in now…

Causing you to doubt your skills and accomplishments unnecessarily…

Affecting your confidence and contributing to imposter syndrome…

8 Light writer Taylor Keazirian argues in favor of maintaining a set of "living" documents as part of software development project efforts. Common misconceptions about software documentation are addressed and refuted with insights on what a minimal technical set of documents for a software project should look like.

I think I understand why people build highly abstracted code. It saves work, and there's a kind of satisfaction, which I've experienced, in the practice of classifying and abstracting everything you can, until it's laid out in a neat, logical taxonomy of everything anything does. However, it makes it so hard to reason about the code, understand what it does, and maintain it after the fact.

I'm digging into the source code of #SabreNarrativePlanner (github.com/sgware/sabre) and oy vey is it an example of Java code at its finest. I feel like I am going to be so much smarter once I get all the way through it. This is the sort of thing that makes me wish I was able to get an education before I started working in #SoftwareDevelopment.

Only 16kloc though.

Maybe I should reimplement it in some other language, just to make sure I understand what's going on. Otherwise I might have to just turn on the debugger and follow along, which might take longer.

So many things I've been wanting to learn about in this project.

I wonder if @sgware is on here somewhere
