Unfortunately, I don't do a lot of outside learning. I'm pretty comfortable in my current job and I've got a variety of things at home to keep me busy between wife, kids, and a new house to take care of. (Not to mention WoW and SC2 which comes out in 2 weeks). I also feel that I'm much too busy at work to spend the time reading a lot of blogs or insights into programming in general.
Yet somehow I still happily answer "above average" when asked to rank my skills.
Maybe I'll have to justify it by saying all those 12 year old facebook app devs are bringing down the curve enough that I'm on top, or at least, above average. Whew, I feel better about myself already. Thanks facebook!
Interesting, I never really thought about it.
ReplyDeleteI guess I do read and learn a fair amount, but not as much as I'd like. I like to think I keep in touch with whats going on in the development world.
