Ego
I read an interesting take1:
On a meta-level, coding is about making observations and identifying relationships. These observations result in little hypotheses for us to test out. So itβs about having the, "Hmm π§..., this thing over here might be what's causing that thing over there π€", moments. Over and over. Without getting in our own way when, for example, one of these little hypotheses gets proven false.
I wanted to save it here. Maybe tomorrow I'll write something on this.
