  • TIP: How to limit procrastination on mobile phone? Just turn on the black and white mode and suddenly the brain will find it significantly less attractive.

  • If you want to make a modular application, think carefully about providing any added value. Make sure it is not overengineering - especially for small projects. Many people are aware of this, but now modularization is IN and that is why they forget about it. :)
  • We spend most of our lives at work. If we want our work to be more fulfilling, it is important to see how beneficial our efforts have been for the society.
  • Code generation is useful because it makes people happy. : D
