The "Full-Stack Developer" is a myth.

The modern tech stack is far too complex for one person to master. This unrealistic expectation leads to burnout.

Instead, we should value "T-shaped developers"—experts in one area with broad, functional knowledge of the rest.

Angular Signals ≠ RxJS Observables 😮‍💨 If you’re still treating signals like streams, you’re in for a world of confusion.

✅ Signals = reactive state ❌ Signals ≠ event streams 💡 Use computed() for derived state ⚠️ Mutate with .update(), not .push()
