Find your niche.
None
You may have to move!
Work on apps that people actually use.
Get into the plumbing. Nothing is magic.
Build on your previous experiences.
You’re not an imposter.
None
Work someplace new every 4 years. Ask for a 15%
salary bump when offered a new job.
Write code. Keep it clean. Share freely.
