A mindset around trade offs > a mindset around absolutes.

This is why “it depends” is usually the right answer and the path forward is best found through a play of back and forth communication.

What and how you build is always a balance of what is asked, what customers need, what is possible and what is on the horizon. Each of these can be broke down further, are interconnected and in flux. I’m not sure the growth here ever stops. This is why I love building software.

I am self taught, no CS classes to get me going. I started by doing things, like writing a button click event handler that displayed an alert. The feeling I got from that simple exercise is something I still can feel today. A love to simply make things. Never stop if you are on the path.
