20 things learned in 20 years of software development

Some good points:

4. Best code is no code - less code to maintain

6. Sometimes you just have to get started

9. Nobody asks enough about “Why”

11. One of the biggest differences between junior and senior devs is the latter have a well founded, dedicated opionen about tools, with the skill to come to an agreement with others what to use in which context
