Hi! I hope all is well. I am loving this instance and all the communities so far! As I am a new grad software engineer who is gonna start working in the next month, I was wondering if there are some tips, advice and some nuggets of wisdom you want to pass to this clueless person making this post lmao.
Be open to other views and learning. At least until you learn you’re in a bad environment.
Be interested in cause and reason. Document what is not documented and had to ask.
I think there’s too much to development and work to give good, practical, generic advice.
Make your code as simple and brainless as possible.
The vast majority of time spent working with code will be debugging or reading other people’s code, so if you write something incredibly clever, you’re just making the next person’s job (who could be you in 6 months) harder.
