Awesomness level

There's a good part of computer science that's a lot like magic. There's a bad part of computer science that's a lot like religion. - Hal Abelson

Awesome coding skills

I like to think of myself as more a "researcher" than an "engineer" - so, really changing my attitude towards coding and caring about the little things was a big deal for me.

Working on improving my skills

Learning to code well is a long and slow process. It is something that you have to develop over the years in a very deliberate fashion. There may be other ways of doing it but this is the only one that I have seen working.
