Talmudic Maxims to Maximize Your Growth as a Developer - Yitzchok Willroth - Midwest.io 2015
This was given as the closing keynote presentation at Midwest.io 2015.
You’ve been programming for a while now. You’re beginning to feel that you’ve got a handle on things but at the same time can’t escape the feeling that you’ve somehow plateaued in your growth as a software developer. In this talk Yitzchok, a rabbinic scholar and software developer, shares the “wisdom of the sages” as practical, actionable advice – strategies and tactics – that you can use to reinvigorate your growth as a software developer.
