Hi David, thank you very much for your comment. I'm glad you mentioned learning an integral part of our job description. It is tough to find any other job to compare where you have to learn incrementally on a daily basis to be able to catch up with current technology stream. I can see my wife (she is also a developer) was so outdated after only six months of maternity leave, that she had to start to code before the end of maternity leave to be able to stay in shape.
Another thing which is specific for learning in IT is that fact we have to absorb most of the stuff ourselves. There is no "book" you can buy, read and immediately go to some exam, or classes you can take. There is such a thing if you're a beginner in some field, and need wind in a back for beginning, but indeed not trough whole career.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
