Honeypot DEVS ANSWER

I did this thing for Honeypots YouTube Channel. I had heard of Honeypot through these mini documentaries they have done, like about Vue.js, GraphQL, and Ember.js. They do a great job, so I was happy to shoot them over some answers to questions for this series.

Here’s a TLDR-ish transcript:

What’s the best way to stay up to date with new technologies?

Don’t worry about it much. If you’re actively building websites and solving problems that come up day to day, you’re doing the job and that’s what’s important. If you’re really worried you’re only ever using outdated tech, go to a conference once a year and see what people are talking about.

What are your top tips for career advancement?

Writing! You don’t have to blog, even though I like that idea. You can write to your co-workers, or even keep a private log. Writing really opens doors and makes you a better thinker.

What strengths are most important for a developer?

Communication trumps raw technical skill. One developer alone can never do as much as a high functioning team, and communication is what makes a team high functioning.

What what the proudest moment of your career?

I tend to look back at things that took a long time and didn’t involve just me. CodePen will be 10 years old next year. That’s something to be proud of.

When did you realize you wanted to be a developer?

I had a good teacher in high school. I’m sure they don’t even remember me, but I was highly into the computer programming class they taught. I’d come to school early to use the computer lab. I’d stay after school. I’d take my study halls there. Working on a program, with the guidance of that teacher, was deeply fun. While I ended up abandoning computer science in college for art, my career now I find was a way to marry my love of computer nerdery and art.
