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:

def _resolve_host(func):
def resolve(host, *args, **kwargs):
if host in HOSTS:
return func(HOSTS[host], **kwargs)
return func(host, *args, **kwargs)
return resolve
fab clean:stage
fab deploy:production
fab deploy:192.168.1.102
STAGE = 'stage.example.com'
PRODUCTION = 'www.example.com'
HOSTS = {
'stage':STAGE,
'production':PRODUCTION
}
class Account
...
end
class Transfer
def self.exec(acct1, acct2, amt)
Transaction.begin do
acct1.balance -= amt
acct2.balance += amt
acct1.save!
