Reader Question Round-Up, Part 4

I've taken to doing a Youtube video where I answer reader questions every few weeks or so. This one in particular features a question about my blog post series on the so-called "Expert Beginner."

Since people here have recently been chatting about that, I thought I might cross post this latest video here. I'm embedding a frame below.

Here are the topics that I tackle in the video.

1. 1:02 How to Reconcile YAGNI and TDD (without test cruft)?
2. 5:27 How to Get Expert Beginners Learning Again?
3. 8:52 Resources for Thinking Like a Programmer?
4. 12:22 What Has Changed to Make the Efficiencer Path Easier to Follow?

By the way, I'm new here in general, so I'm not sure what the protocol is on sharing something like this. If I've made any kind of self-promotion faux pas, please let me know.

I have seen many people reposting stuff from there personal sites. You can take my 2 cents for what it's worth, I enjoyed the video and see nothing wrong with it!
