Programming

Python, and dynamically typed languages in general, are known as being great for beginners. However, I feel that while they’re fun for beginners, they should only be used if you really know what you’re doing, as the code can get messy real fast without some guard rails in place (static typing being a big one).

If you're not a programming superstar you can probably make more money writing nothing but Terraform code for hapless enterprises.

If your function is longer than 10 statements, parts can almost always be extracted into smaller parts. If named correctly, this improves readability significantly

Modern PHP is great and people judging it by PHP 5 (version that's almost 20 years old) are idiots.

The amount of unqualified people is staggering beginning with those who have no university education.

I find that S-expressions are the best syntax for programming languages. And in general infix operators are inferior to either prefix or postfix notation.

Mandatory pull requests + approvals within a team are a waste of everyone's time.

Don't enforce using the same tech stack on each new project. When customer, domain, environment, requirements etc differ, so might the tool suite, languages, frameworks etc
