As I was reviewing the last week's career discussions, two threads from Ben Halpern stood out for the great comments that they generated.
In this video I highlight some of the my favorite picks from these two threads:

Really good advice. I have had these issues so many times, and yes giving your brain rest definitely helps a lot more then banging your head against the issue. Also the point about let another co-worker take a look at it. It has really helped us out in terms of development whenever we have hit that fork in the road.
Thanks for mentioning my comment, Marek! 😄
So much invaluable advice this week. I love this community, everybody is always helping each other and trying to improve. Thanks, DEV team!!
