► Getting A Programming Job: Looks Over Technical Skills? ◄ So, the world does not work in the best way possible and we know that. Social justice does not happen "as it should" and sometimes, we feel the injustice in us. When getting a programming job, what should matter the most? Looks or technical skills? If you're sane, you've probably answered "technical skills". However, as I said before, this is not the way the world works... What matters the most? Looks or Technical Skills?

► Who Will Validate You As A Developer? ◄ I often see programmers and developers facing some inner challenges when it comes to finding their self-value. Most programmers believe that they need external validation when it comes to becoming a programmer. Nowadays, college is not the only path you can take when it comes to becoming a programmer. There are a lot of other paths you can take that will make an awesome developer that won't give you a degree, a validation. So... How do you validate yourself as a developer? Only you can do that.

► I Feel Lost When Learning Programming!◄ Learn Programming can definitely be a pretty difficult and tricky thing. With a lot of information out there, it is almost impossible to know where to start if you're not following a proper learning plan. In today's video, I have received a question from a fan of the blog telling me that he feels lost everytime he wants to learn programming. There is a lot of information out there and he does not know where to start. Besides that, he feels like he is not making any progress. How to overcome this?

► Should Programmers Become Network Engineers? ◄ A network engineer is a technology professional who has the necessary skills to plan, implement and support the computer networks that support in-house voice, data, video and wireless network services. But... Why are we talking about Network Engineers? Most people don't know, but this is a field that some developers are starting to pay attention to. However... I'm not going to be the one who will talk about network engineers today. Instead, I'm going to leave that with a pro. Check Out NetworkChuck: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9x0AN7BWHpCDHSm9NiJFJQ

► How To Become A Freelancer Software Developer? ◄ When I was working a regular 9-to-5 job, I'd often fantasize about starting my own business––working for myself. I'd think about how nice it would be to be a freelancer and not have a boss. I'd daydream about traveling the world, working whatever hours I pleased, and making hoards of money from lucrative contracts. Then I'd snap to reality as I realized I had no idea how to go about making something like this happen. I mean, how do you actually become a freelancer and work for yourself? This is the dream of most software developers. Most of them fantasize about working for themselves, just to start in freelancing and discover that things do not work 100% like that. The first question you should ask yourself is if you are sure whether or not you really want to embark upon this path. Don't get me wrong; I want you to become an entrepreneur of sorts. I want you to eventually stop working for "the man" and find your path to freedom. But freedom is not for everyone. The reality is that it is going to take a large amount of work to even get to the point where the dream is a reality.

► I Have No Direction In My Career◄ How would you feel if you had no direction in your career? This is exactly today's topic. I've received an email from a reader telling me that he felt completely lost in his career. As you know, the success for software development means specializing and finding your niche. What could be more harmful than feeling lost in your career? In this video, we'll talk about how to find directions in your career and why this is such an important thing to do.

► Too Late For Javascript Tutorials? ◄ Is it too late to start creating tutorials about JavaScript?

► Tabs Vs. Spaces: Using Spaces Will Make You... Richer?◄ Developers who use tabs to indent their code, developers who fight for truth and justice and all that is good in the world, those developers have a median salary of $43,750. But developers who use spaces to indent their code, developers who side with evil and probably spend all day kicking kittens and punching puppies? Their median salary is $59,140. (Source: https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2017/06/according-to-statistics-programming-with-spaces-instead-of-tabs-makes-you-rich/) This is just a quick excerpt from the article that states that programmers who use spaces instead of tabs earn more.
