🔷 Fear = inexperience
If you spent 2000 hours on one of these, would you understand it?
🔸 Web
🔸 Mobile
🔸 Blockchain
🔸 AI
🔸 IoT
🔸 DevOps
Everything used to be impossible until it wasn't
Time is the difference
Remember:
🔹 Time is for spending
🔹 FEAR NOTHING
🔷 Bigger is not better
Write the least amount of code to complete the task
🔸 Less complexity = less bugs
🔸 Less code = less review & future work
🔸 You aren't paid for line count
Choose the shortest path which accomplishes the task
Discard everything unnecessary
Here's a recap:
🔷 Fear = inexperience
🔷 Bigger is not better
🔷 Take care of your body
🔷 Extrapolate early
🔷 Never stop growing
🔷 It won't always be hard, and that sucks
🔷 Make friends
🔷 Control your cage
🔷 Don't pretend to know
🔷 Take care of your body
I didn't
I'd code for 48 hours while slouched over like a hunchback
I feel it daily even while sleeping, and I will keep paying for it for the rest of my life
🔸 Workout 3-4 times a week
🔸 Move around once an hour
🔸 Sit properly
🔸 Use wrist rests
🔷 It won't always be hard, and that sucks
Programming will eventually become so easy that you will spend all your time searching the internet for a good challenge just to feel alive
Developers that last are attracted to mental pain
Learn to love it, or gtfo
We're almost there folks.
You'll soon be able to easily learn $EOS development and access an assortment of different ways to earn from your newly acquired skills.

Could not be happier with Jonaed joining us at the

Network Foundation
Looking forward to working with him on bringing the $EOS community to a whole new level 🔥
@EOSnFoundation
Your boy got a job!
And not just any job but a dream job!
I am official a Developer Advocate for the EOS Network Foundation!
I could not have done it without Twitter.
Thanks to each and every one of you who supported me.
I literally could not have done it without y'all.
🔷 Never stop growing
A dev's career trajectory is like the movie Crank
If you stop, you will die
🔸 Read everything
🔸 Build daily
🔸 Learn core concepts
🔸 Investigate new verticals
🔸 Never be happy with your current skillset
🔷 Make friends
The most important thing you ever develop as a developer will be relationships
🔸 Interact with people online
🔸 Find local developer meetups
🔸 Go out with co-workers
The biggest impact on your quality of life and career will be your network
Start on Twitter
🔷 Extrapolate early
Too many developers ignore DRY
If you even THINK you'll need a piece of code more than once, extrapolate it
Don't put future refactoring work on your plate
Do the work now, or do more work forever
I built an app with 500,000 users that ran non-stop for years
It never once went down or got slow
It was running on a single Digital Ocean droplet
Stop over-engineering, start launching
🔷 Don't pretend to know
Devs who always know the answer, never know the answer
Don't be afraid to say that you don't know something
Instead, make sure that you close the gap in your knowledge quickly after finding it
Are you a blockchain developer?
I'm incredibly interested in what you need, what's stopping you from reaching your goals, and in connecting people together to help each other grow.
Reach out!
There's so much cool stuff coming to $EOS, fuck. Stuff we waited for YEARS to come, and stuff I didn't even know I wanted until someone said it could be possible and now I just want to play with it.

We, the EOS community, are very open to collaboration.
If you are curious about what we've been up to since we kicked block.none off the chain, come join our discord. There's lots of ways you can participate, and lots more coming.
Do you hate EOS?
- If so, tell me why? 💬
Before you answer, remember that scammed us too, and they aren't EOS, we the community are. And we're fighting.
⚠ AI tools are revolutionizing development
But 95% of developers aren't using them
So I built a FREE AI cheatsheet with 83 crucial resources
(only 10,000 copies are available, so move fast!)
To get it:
• Like
• Retweet
• Follow
• Comment: AI
& then wait for the DM
Stories are what make people take notice.
Many blockchains have stories.
Not many blockchains have stories like EOS does.
It just needs to be told properly.
🔷 Control your cage
You'll keep getting work that is similar to previous work you've done
Learn to decide if you're not happy doing it as early as possible
The longer you starve in a cage, the harder it is to break out
When you've fucked your community so hard for so long that you have to turn off comments on your product release you've been working on for over a year 🙄
The internet is such a crazy place
Imagine a blockchain deciding they were going to take on a company that ran away with $4,000,000,000
What they did next was insane, but it worked:
