It's important for programmers to challenge themselves.
Creative and technical stagnation is the only alternative.
In the spirit of the new year, I've compiled twelve month-sized resolutions.
Each month is an annually renewable technical or personal challenge:
- Go analog.
- Stay healthy.
- Embrace the uncomfortable.
- Learn a new programming language.
- Automate.
- Learn more mathematics.
- Focus on security.
- Back up your data.
- Learn more theory.
- Engage the arts and humanities.
- Learn new software.
- Complete a personal project.
