Developer Values

Discard Ego, Acquire Self Improvement

  • Be: self aware, disciplined, and humble
  • Don't: be afraid to ask for help, fear mistakes (learn from them), or get attached to your ideas
  • Focus on: learning, improving & practicing good habits
  • Do: well today (and ship) rather than wait for perfection, set high expectations for yourself, step out of your comfort zone, understand and accept you can be wrong, test your code/process/assumptions and ask for feedback

Be Lazy (Practical)

  • Identify root causes, not what's on the surface
  • Be clear about your approach and what you're doing/not doing
  • Differentiate between what needs to be done vs what can be improved later
