4:07 - Start here!
This AMA will feature questions submitted from my Discord community:
https://www.devleader.ca/discord-community-access/
But as time permits I'll take questions in the chat or submitted to me on social media. In the future, I'll provide a landing page where you can submit questions ahead of time.
Submitted questions:
- What is a software architect?
- As a programmer, should I aspire to be an architect?
- How much and what kind of influence does a senior engineer have vs an architect?
- How do I get an offer at Microsoft? We want the secrets!
- How do I build my network to aid in job searches?
- Do you believe "One becomes a good programmer when their old code needs to be modified to support new needs instead of just moving on to new projects"?
- Related to the previous, is this why you focus so much on refactoring?
