The best teacher has been helping collegues. I have been programming a lot better ( less errors and even without sometimes running the application when I'm pretty sure), because I think and analyze more upfront than I used to.
Some things come back, but it's rarely related to me ( eg. last moment spec changes).
I do have to watch out, I notice that basing my code on someone else is ok. But, they always have faulty code in hard to test areas. So make testing easier on things that are hard to test is my next motto.
Also, helping others is a pretty huge timesink :(
Ps. Being in the zone does wonders lately
PS2. There was another threat about videolan yesterday. And nobody heard the entire story about https. I gave the VLC developers the benefit of the doubt, not knowing everything off their infrastructure.
. A lot of the comments here on HN disagreed with me ( stole silently upvoted though).
Today I saw a blog post about why..
It was infrastructure based...
I can't understand why I was practically the only one with another view in the subject in this community, where developers come together.
FYI:
Comments are in my history. Mostly on the videolan topic. It's all recent
