218. Deep Practice & Becoming a better developer
Welcome back to The Rabbit Hole podcast! This week we’re diving into the subject of deep practice and how to become a better developer. Dave and Michael reflect on how learning to play a musical instrument taught them important lessons about intentional practice and how they’ve applied those lessons to coding. Hear how test-driven development and pair programming can be effective methods for intentional practice, and how you can pick up valuable lessons by actively observing peers and reading code. There are also opportunities for small, everyday exercises that can improve your coding on programs like LeetCode and Exercism. Tune in today as we discuss deep practice, The Matrix, mindful learning, and plenty more!
