Jeff Atwood has some really interesting links in : Success through Failure
Software development is difficult in the best of conditions. You should always be failing some of the time, and learning from those failures in an honest way. Otherwise, you're cheating yourself out of the best professional development opportunities.
But, I’m actually getting rather tired of feeling compelled to link to Jeff’s posts, since they’re all so damn good! He even recently quoted my favorite line from Scrubs:
Cox: Thanks to your little gesture, she (Dr. Clock) actually believes that the Earth is full of people who are deep down filled with kindness and caring!
Kelso: Well that's absurd. People are *** coated bastards with *** filling.
So instead of me linking to every post he makes here, go read his blog every day, okay folks? Don’t waste your time here at CodeBetter, ‘till you’ve checked in there!
