The 4 things it takes to be an expert

Those who spend their time on social media or playing video games will never be an expert on anything.

So not just practice, but practice at the things you suck at. For programming, I suck at working with Model-view-controller code, so in order to become an expert programmer I need to practice writing Model-view-controller code.

Programming suffers from lack of timely feedback.  It takes a long time for bad design to cause adverse effects.  So one can only become a good programmer if one acquires good values from some other source like religion and then one applies those values to one's code to generate one's own timely feedback.

They weren't born to be.
