    Rich Hickey on becoming a better developer

Rich Hickey • 3 years ago
Sorry, I have to disagree with the entire premise here.
A wide variety of experiences might lead to well-roundedness, but not to greatness, nor even goodness. By constantly switching from one thing to another you are always reaching above your comfort zone, yes, but doing so by resetting your skill and knowledge level to zero.
Mastery comes from a combination of at least several of the following:

                talk given by John Ousterhout about sustaining relationships
              
          
    "Scar Tissues Make Relationships Wear Out"

04/26/2103.  From a lecture by Professor John Ousterhout at Stanford, class CS142.

This is my most touchy-feely thought for the weekend. Here’s the basic idea: It’s really hard to build relationships that last for a long time. If you haven’t discovered this, you will discover this sooner or later. And it's hard both for personal relationships and for business relationships. And to me, it's pretty amazing that two people can stay married for 25 years without killing each other.


[Laughter]

> But honestly, most professional relationships don't last anywhere near that long. The best bands always seem to break up after 2 or 3 years. And business partnerships fall apart, and there's all these problems in these relationships that just don't last. So, why is that? Well, in my view, it’s relationships don't fail because there some single catastrophic event to destroy them, although often there is a single catastrophic event around the the end of the relation

                Rich text / HTML editors and frameworks
              
          
    Strictly Frameworks


Mobiledoc - github.com/bustle/mobiledoc-kit - framework to build editors with a standardized JSON structure
ShareDB - github.com/share/sharedb - framework to sync any JSON document using operational transforms, add real-time collaborative editing to anything else
Bangle.dev - github.com/bangle-io/bangle.dev - toolkit built for building editors, based on prosemirror

Abstracted Editors

These use separate document structures instead of HTML, some are more modular libraries than full editors

                Nested Pick<T, K> in TypeScript 2.2
              
          
    TypeScript supports Pick to allow you to get a "subset" object type of a given type, but there is no built-in Pick for deeper nested fields.
If you have a function that takes a large object as argument, but you don't use all of its fields, you can use Pick, Pick2, Pick3, etc to narrow down the input type to be only just what you need. This will make it easier to test your function, because when mocking the input object, you don't need to pass all fields of the "large" object.
