↳ In-reply-to » @lyse I feel that on so many levels, and I appreciate the honesty. I feel as though the level of which the diploma taught me things - I already had most of it by being proactive and learning in my personal time.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de’s point is spot on. this is why it’s so important to “dogfood” or “drink your own kool aid” (similar expressions) when writing a piece of software, or building a product. There is nothing more important that being a user yourself.

There are other things that are quite important too, like fail fast, fail early. But I won’t go into that too much here 😅
