Top 7 Featured DEV Posts from the Past Week

Every Tuesday we round up the previous week's top posts based on traffic, engagement, and a hint of editorial curation. The typical week starts on Monday and ends on Sunday, but don't worry, we take into account posts that are published later in the week.

Education Through Honesty

In this post, @dmarinere opens up about some mistakes they made in an effort to help you avoid the same ones. We're ALL going to make mistakes at one point or another, but it's wise to try and learn from the missteps others have made. Thanks for your honesty, Emmanuel!

How to Learn Consistently

Having a routine of always learning each day can be difficult to upkeep, but necessary for developers to stay up to date. Here are some general principles from @abh1navv that will help us invest our time efficiently.

Why Use Linux?

@techmaniacc shares some of the latest reasons why developers have largely shifted their preference from Windows to Linux.

When to ORM

In this post, @harshhhdev familiarizes you with the different advantages and disadvantages that ORMs provide to help you decide when it would be appropriate to include them in your tech stack.

Get Paid to Write Technical Articles

@juliafmorgado put together a list of websites that pay technical writers a good amount of money.

That's it for our weekly Top 7 for this Tuesday! Keep an eye on dev.to this week for daily content and discussions… and be sure to keep an eye on this series in the future. You might just be in it!
