All right, should we talk about change of mind, changing our mind? Should we talk about Chris Keel? Yeah. Maybe that's how you say his name. Shout out to Chris, a software developer and overall pretty cool guy. His words, not mine. I can't vouch for whether or not any of that's true. I just read it on a webpage on the internet.

This has become a pattern, hasn't it? Like something I've learned after, and then it's like whatever many years it is. I feel like we've had a couple of people who've written successful posts like that. And then other people are like, Oh, I've also spent N years doing a thing.

What's the lower limit you can put on a post like this and still get some traction? Software development topics, I've changed my mind on after six weeks in the industry. How low can you go and still get people's attention? That's a good question.

Well, a change of mind does require some prerequisites, right? You have to have formed an opinion previously. And then you must have been holding that opinion for some amount of time to test it against the real world. And then you must be convinced that that opinion was wrong and change your mind, which is easier and harder to do depending on the person, the experience level.

I think people who are fresh to topics can change their mind a lot because they haven't had time to... harden their heart for whatever it is that they're currently thinking of. So you and I have been in the industry for a very long time now. Did you know that? Gosh. How long have you been in the industry? He doesn't really define the industry, but I think we can just say the software world.
