Comment on The half-life of tech skills

Comments

I started my career working with Apache, jquery, mysql, and php. Moved to Angular and Java. Then Go, k8s, postgres and a large etc. Back to php. Kotlin. Some python. Some serverless…

And that’s just the tangible stuff. Not to speak about DDD, TDD, clean code, cicd, debugging, and a large etc.

My skills don’t degrade. Each thing I have learned in the past helps me when learning the next hot thing. These “outdated” skills are an investment, not a waste; they are what makes me being a software engineer with X years of experience.
