A family member was having a seizure during the meeting. I will see you soon...

I’m going to use it aggressively. Not for prompts, but for output. Here’s how I’m thinking about it 👇 Most people treat AI like: → Google → StackOverflow → A fancy autocomplete That’s a waste. I’m treating it like: • A junior engineer that writes first drafts • A reviewer that spots edge cases • A refactoring partner • A test + docs generator What I’ll be using it for • Scaffolding features fast • Refactoring ugly code safely • Writing tests I usually “skip for now” • Explaining unfamiliar codebases in plain English Goal for the next 90 days: 👉 Ship more without burning out 👉 Spend time on decisions, not typing I’ll share: • What actually worked • What was hype • Real examples (code, workflows, wins, failures) Question for you: If you had Claude Code Max for 3 months, what would you automate or build first?

Hey everyone 👋 I’ve just released the updated 2026 Junior-to-Senior Developer Roadmap — a complete guide that shows you exactly what skills to learn (and in what order) to grow from junior to senior engineer. This is the same roadmap I use when training engineering teams, and now you can use it to level up your career in 2026. Why this roadmap matters in 2026 The tech landscape is evolving fast: AI tools, distributed systems, cloud-native development, and modern API standards are now expected skills — not “nice to haves.” This roadmap breaks everything down into clear, achievable steps so you always know what to learn next, including: ✔ Programming Languages Java, JavaScript, Python, C#, Go — and how to choose the right one. ✔ Web & API Development REST, gRPC, security, encryption, real-world protocols. ✔ Databases Relational, NoSQL, caching, search engines, indexing. ✔ Cloud & DevOps AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD, testing. ✔ System Design (the real senior jump) Microservices, messaging systems, sharding, distributed systems, load balancing, and more. ✔ AI Tools for Developers ChatGPT, Claude, prompt engineering, automation — the skillset every developer will need in 2026. Whether you're starting out, leveling up, or preparing for a senior role — this roadmap will guide your next steps. Drop a comment if you’d like me to create: - A learning plan for each section - A video breakdown of the roadmap - A challenge to complete the roadmap in 12 weeks Let’s make 2026 your biggest leap yet. 🚀

Dear Amigos and Amigas! If there's one thing that puts you off learning or improving your skills in web, application or mobile development, it's... What would it be? Share it in the comments! :D If you can solve a problem that's been mentioned in a comment, please tell us how you did it. 💡
