Three years in and I've worked across the stack: React frontends, Java backends, CI/CD pipelines, performance testing, and security. I've learned a lot, but somehow, I'm still asking the same questions. What should I name this? How should I test this? How do I fit these two things together? While seemingly simple, the problems of software design keep growing and deepening the more I learn, and honestly, that's what keeps me hooked. The questions never go away, they just get more interesting.
