5 things I've learned in 10 years as a developer:

1. No one knows exactly what they are doing
2. Anything can be learned with enough dedication
3. Perception > reality
4. Taking on the toughest problems pays dividends
5. People like to make things sound complicated for their ego

Deleting code matters! You can provide tons of value by deleting code!

Deleting code such as:
- removing duplication
- removing redundant comments
- removing unnecessary complexity
- removing unused code

Always keep in mind: The less the code, the less to maintain.
