I don't chase latest trends, I just deepen my knowledge around the tech which I need for my work. I learn 30 minutes a day focusing on what I do not understand during my work. I mean there is a lot I just use and do not understand why... 😀 My tech stack is Java Spring, Spring Boot, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, Cloud computing, Hexagonal architecture... there is a lot to learn even for a senior developer. I have a great project for next 2-3 years, so I am good right now. After this project I will continue with Java and Cloud no matter what the latest trends will be... I have no idea about blockchains and I don't need to know, I have some idea about AI and Big Data but that's it.

[@shaunweinberg2463]

The problem is learning something new needs lots of time. And to be paid and learn is tough, especially if you already do one job (like a full stack). So there more challenges than just learning, its surviving while working and learning.

[@TiffInTech]

So true! Thanks for sharing

[@MandyRFran]

Same here!! I’m planning and saving to stay some months with no work and have more time for studying!!

[@john888]

This is also a challenge for me. But I started doing it gradually (ie. 1 hr daily) as what the Atomic Habits book recommends. Now I'm investing around 2.5 hrs a day just learning.

[@shaunweinberg2463]

@john888 yes, it's a slow process. And what you learn from videos and real life applications are also different. So small little bites at a time is needed to learn

[@lidstech54]

This video is such a relief! Before watching this one, I've watched all these "You have to be best AI engineer if you don't want to lose your job and live in poverty forever"😈, and asked myself how possible is to gain all these trendy skills and how necessary is to leave everything I learned and start learning something new when I actually just started my career? Thanks for reminding me to stick to my path and keep on strenthening the current skills.🙏

[@i-hsiuchiang8569]

Just because something is trending, it still can't leave the fundamentals. You can't power AI without clean data. You can't power web3 without the network set up. Hence, in the end, fundamental jobs such as data engineer, data architect and network engineer will never die out. In fact, we need them more than ever because it saves cost in the long run, and guess who they will hire during a recession...

[@TiffInTech]

Yes! Exactly! So well said

[@pamelar.2684]

Thanks, Tiff, I need to learn communication skills, I always focus on technical skills.

[@Riddingwithvivian]

The answer to... Am I going to become irrelevant is...probably and that is no matter how hard you try. The best thing to do is to put some money into a new crypto project and hope it takes off...thats all I have Tiff...thanks for your vids they really quite nice to listen too

[@TiffInTech]

Thank you!!

[@thebrilliantmrpedro]

I've been saying to myself and others that you must be an expert in what you do best or want to do best. There are people that know old programming skills and languages that work well with traditional people and not those companies that seek the new thing. Be open to evolving and be willing to change. You are beautiful by the way.

[@fanad4487]

Hello, If i want to make aplications or become software developer and make systems and so on what programing language should i learn?

[@Gauravkumar-jm4ve]

Very useful analysis, thanks for sharing

[@Dale-ko9kc]

I want to learn coding. I think you might be where I start. Thanks!

[@Chill50318]

This has been heavy on my mind.

[@raveneliette7948]

Thank you for the thoughts you shared!

[@TiffInTech]

My pleasure! Hope your day is going great

[@anmolkataria6686]

Hey tiff i like your videos and content is so much relevant. Can you make video how to network in Toronto i am new here and looking for new friends and people, and i am also looking for it job

[@TiffInTech]

Hi Anmol! Welcome to Toronto! How are you enjoying it so far? I know the weather hasn’t been great! And great suggestion. I will definitely do that. In the meantime, have you checked out “meetup.com”? I haven’t used it in a while but it used to host some great meetups and events to attend in Toronto. Meetups are a great way to network because others who are going are looking to network too

[@justanthony8642]

If I want to learn AI, do I have to learn data science first? I don't have any coding/programming experience and education.

[@robertmarolt9236]

You are an computer Princess. I like You. Good luck. Robert

[@brittanycarrita1827]

Thanks for sharing such awesome advice! I also try and figure out what is in demand within the company I'm currently working for, and learn some things to level up that way! Right now I'm learning Quality Engineering on Udemy because my company is fairly new and still needs to implement a QC department. I also am always curious about how the machines work in the lab... today I was on the phone with the company who makes our vape cart filling machine and asked what programming language was used to build the user interface, even though I didn't NEED that information to fix the machine. Here's another saying: "Jack of all trades, master of none". Not always a bad thing, but like you said, be aware thats where you might be headed!

[@SkySesshomaru]

That's it, thank you!

[@TiffInTech]

You're welcome!

[@Nadir-Ul-Kaysar-Handsome-VA]

2:48 is that onetime or lifetime with all future features? Does it have it's own smtp. I'm looking for this kind of app atm.

[@cetrick_yeanay]

Thank you Tiff

[@TiffInTech]

Forsure! Hope you’re having a great day

[@kmunson007]

Nothing last forever Tech Industries are now Layoff Thousand of workers

[@TiffInTech]

It’s very sad! Lots of opportunities in small to medium companies! It too will settle itself out it just takes time. That’s why it is more important then ever to not get too comfortable and continue to level up 💓

[@sh0shin]

big companies also overhired. some of them simply expected more people to walk away on their own, some of them projected growth that wasn't happening because of inflation and everything else.

[@tasbihatezahra5901]

Tech is a field but other fields are hiring at the moment. Especially experienced developers. I don't worry for them...

[@btee23]

Can you do a video on ChatGPT tips?

[@TiffInTech]

I’m working on one right now for Friday’s video! Anything specific you would like me to include?:)

[@btee23]

@@TiffInTech how about a few of your favorite questions and answers from it. Or even combined with worst

[@jojje3000-1]

Don’t chase tech trends, we still have a consumer economy so try to figure out what is going to sell. Sell to the end customer, the user.

[@cprfreeMusic]

I feel like this is too vague, but I get it.

[@TiffInTech]

That’s fair! Thanks for the feedback! I wouldn’t feel right being extremely specific when it varies so much based on person, company etc. rather building it into your mindset and shifting your perspective to this is what I’ve found works best!

[@obaidali8813]

I'm currently learning web development but Ai scares me so I want to learn about Ai Should I learn web3 or Ai Web 3 is in demand ?

[@brayanjpm]

i think that dominate the fundamentals for any technology is "enough" for stay update, but if you want to stay on demand as developer, ai specialist , or any career in order is so important to be focused in to that specifically , all depends from what do you want for you, of course, yo also had to do a market study PSDT: I'm Software Developer

[@obaidali8813]

How much blockchain increase

[@TiffInTech]

I’ll have to look into it! I can’t recall 🤔
