Learning a new programming language, library, or technology

* Learn a new language every year

Actually, I’m learning more in depth this year

Focusing on T shaped skills, going deep as I’ve gone broad

Keeping a cursory knowledge of newer stuffs, but focus on becoming an expert in a specific language or technology

* Why bother?

Life moves pretty fast, if you don’t look around you might miss it

In the last hour 8 new JavaScript libraries were created, 5 were deprecated, and 2 were abandoned

* Choosing a language

Business Value?

Marketability?

Fun?

Alternate Paradigm

look on GitHub

Solution in search of a problem (SignalR)

* How to get started

* Learn the basics

logical statements (if, unless)

looping statements (for, while, until, do, loop)

assignment statements (var, let, yada yada)

block statements (functions, classes)
