    Job specs be like: You need * JavaScript * React * Redux * Node * Mongo * E2E testing * Docker * Kubernetes * AWS And I’m like: “You need to be paying me 3 salaries because that’s 3 jobs”

    “A lot” depends on what you get for your money. $150 is not fair value for being served breakfast imo.

    I make over $200k a year doing JavaScript. Do I say this to brag? No. I’m telling you this because I’m not gifted. You can do this too.

    My first developer salary: $18k a year My current developer salary: $220k a year. Took me over a decade but turned my annual salary into my monthly salary. These things take time.

    After the recent announcement from Google that they will be removing JavaScript from Chrome, and with IE and Safari set to follow, its clear that JavaScript will be obsolete within 12 months. Time to learn Python.

    I learned JavaScript in an hour a day. I build an almost 40k Twitter following in 20 minutes a day. I created a course that made me more than the UK monthly salary last month in an hour a day. What can you do in an hour a day or less?
