Seeing these "levels" I feel I have a bit of every part, but nothing really "full"

I studied CS, but my focus was on usability, and programming techniques and not complexity theory.

I worked as a dev for 10 years now and did a bit of everything while focusing on UIs.

Often I ask myself, how can I grow as a dev and deliver more value, but I find it hard to find and adress problems in my skillset. Often I simply learn a new technology to tell myself "I got better"

Yeah, I can see that. Despite my attempt and dissertation about classifying "ranks linearly," I fully realize that reality, in practice, is a multi-dimensional beast and things are never that simple.

Thank you for taking the time to read!!
