Learning when to ask for help is an important part of being a developer.

The base to progress, junior or not! Thanks Rita, we need more diversity and cool people in IT ! 🙌

LOL with this: "Sometimes the most efficient code is just two lines long, and sometimes a task titled "simple UI changes" turns out to be an 8-day backend task". Great article.

Me too, but as front end, in my last sprint I solve a "Dificult" task with some lines removed, and spend the rest of it with a "Simple UI change" kkkkkkk

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I feel all of them.
You just also made me realised than I'm underestimate my experience and not counting everything before Android and similar to you, there is lots of things that could be told and could be counted.

Similar to you I've always felt not good enought to start speaking out loud, beeing afraid to learn others, sharing experience.. Also this feeling from outside "our world" that our work is well-payed but none see additional things.
