Please read the context behind it. https://www.6seconds.org/2018/02/09/the-great-practice-myth-... - Perhaps this is can help shine some light on the author's original comments regarding the 10,000 hour rule? > It seems to me the pyramid needs to be flipped upside down. The amount of knowledge needed at mastery is much higher than at the base level when you are learning the elements. You're confusing knowledge with experience. At the top end of a career you need a lot of experience to build solutions, but that experience is built up (slowly) by understanding first the fundamentals, followed by how-to build tools and solutions, finally abstracting them behind frameworks or SaaS products. You have to understand TCP/IP before you can fit out an office with a network. You have to understand Python before you can use Django. And you have to understand Django before you can build a SaaS product. And you need experience before you can build anything good. > Overall decent for a first post on a hobby blog. I might come across as a bit condescending calling it a "hobby blog". It's sort of putting down the OP's efforts, I feel. EDIT: Apologies for being so crude in my original wording. I'm updating the comment to reflect a more professional, civil tone. |
