Ask HN: Junior devs of HN, what are you doing to become senior?

Actually listening when a senior tried to correct me. That wasn't easy.

Grow older... years of "experience" acquired...

Aging

I recommend becoming an expert in just one field of computer application, or an industry where computers are used.

Talk to people at your company, go to fairs,...

You'll better understand what is going on around.

You can do some amount of learning new tech skills. But you'll have to know which ones at first, so the former steps are still important.

The key for me has been focus on creating value - by being consistent at coding, year in and year out.

When you stick with it, over time, you start to recognize patterns and cycles, that trends emerge, peak, and fade.
