There are ample opportunities to learn more about software development regardless of experience. It's a bit of an n+1 problem. If you're just building CRUD apps, I can understand how one might plateau in their knowledge, but even that can have a broad scope.

But for a recent example, I learned to stop worrying and love macros in Elixir. Even `defmodule` and `def/defp` are themselves macros.
