There’s so much good advice in the article and I think most developers know these intuitively to a certain extent. The problem with it though is that corporate culture tends to ignore these and is very unforgiving in my experience. When you have to deliver everything on time, all the time, you can’t take any of this advice and practically use it. Taking time with learning for example is something you can do only when your manager allows it, your peers (technical and non technical) won’t take any issue with it and the price of taking time isn’t going to be a negative performance review.
