Today, 7 years ago, I uploaded my first YouTube video. 🥳

There might be different patterns and (sub)optimal ways to do X in Y, but generally speaking, I agree with you.

It's similar to learning spoken languages. The first foreign language is hard. Once you understand how languages work, you'll be able to learn a third language a lot more easily.

It's important.

But it's not about being able to "produce" a few lines of code, but to understand how it works and why decisions are made.

The sole act of "typing code" isn't a (valuable) skill in 2025 anymore. It's okay to do so in free time. But for professionals, we need to go beyond.

I agree. And you can do that with every modern programming language/framework. Just choose one and go deep. Do the work.

Good luck! I'm sure it will be a lot of fun. I just assembled my new computer ~2 weeks ago. 😎

While I strongly believe that technology choice is crucial for long-living projects, it's not for an individual.

We always adapt, we can learn how to handle a neil from a different brand with the skillset (tools) we already have.

However, my 15+ years of C# and .NET helped me adapt and become a decent Typescript and JavaScript engineer within a few months.

What's the gist of it?

Last but not least - every story/career is different. I got hired two times in my career (othertimes I worked for myself).

The first time I had some experience, but not much.
The second time, I had 0 minutes real-world experience with JavaScript.

I'd rather hire a developer with deep understanding in software engiering principles and 0 minutes of experience with my toolchain than a 5-year-veteran with a limited mindset, no strive to improve and other serious issues.

Programming languages are just tools. Granted - they're an important tool.

But if there is a single skill all software developers have in common, it's that we're taught to learn new stuff.

We're always improving.

We need to understand customer requirements, balance priorities with managers and stakeholders, implement proper solutions in a limited period, etc.

Also, let's not forget about team work, communication and being a decent professional human being.

In a world where AI-code generation is taking off, I would not box yourself into a single framework/programming language.

Instead, learn the fundamentals of problem solving and proper engineering principles.

Writing or generating code is only a small part of the everday work.

Does it really matter what programming language or framework you learn when entering the industry?

Some people strictly advise to learn what's most popular.

While I agree that learning COBOL or Lisp won't be my first choice in 2025, there are still more options than JavaScript.

So far, smooth sailing with .NET 10! ⛵

This is an excellent command to determine why a transitive dependency is present in your project.

Helpful if you want to eliminate unnecessary dependencies or find out why a known vulnerability is part of your dependency tree.

So, is everyone hyped about .NET 10? 😎

hi

Great to hear. I haven't used it much lately.

Is this place still a thing?! 👀
