do you have to know everything all the time?

i don't know about you guys but i'm starting to get mentally exhausted at the rate technology has been changing in recent years.  how many java web frameworks are out there today? 60? 70? 100?  and the list keeps on getting LONGER. 

 

here's a bit of soothing salve to remedy that big headache of yours:

Do you ever feel like you're buried under umpteen zillion backlogged emails, feeds, books, articles, journals, magazines, and printouts? Do you ever feel that you're hopelessly behind, with so much new stuff created every day that you can never possibly hope to keep up?

Well, you're not alone.

Via SecretGeek:

  • You do NOT have to refactor all your code.
  • You do NOT have to keep up with the latest news from microsoft, and know everythnig there is to know about longhorn, whidbey, avalon, XAML, indigo and star wars III.
  • You do not have to have perfectly de-coupled tiers in your technology independent SOA software.
  • You do not have to comply to every standard, achieve the perfect balance between maintainability and performance. Usability and familiarity.
  • You don't have to do "first things first every day"
  • You DO NOT have to memorize and understand every patten the gang of four have catalogued.
  • You do NOT have to read every technical blog, print out every technical article and learn every technical thing there is to learn.
  • You are beautiful just the way you are.
  • You are brilliant, interesting, wise and fun to be around.
  • You rock.
