My continuing critique of posts like these is that they miss far more fundamental keys to "leveling up": energy level and psychological issues. I bring this up because in my experience the people who outright fail to "level up" and are actively seeking out posts like this often lack the fundamental ability to follow through on any advice they're given, regardless of whether they agree with it or how good it is. Perha…

Agreed. Finding the motivation/discipline to keep up the conscious effort of improving at anything is the hardest task of all.

Well stated, can't agree more !!!!!

If you're interested in php and/or laravel I highly recommend laracast. He'll go through the exercise of creating a certain feature, and then refactoring that feature with an explanation as to why. And often, that refactor is the difference between entry level code that just works, to intermediate code that's scalable and easy to read. I highly recommend it.

Would you recommend Laravel and PHP? I know PHP is seen as outdated by some people... But now that that NodeJS/MongoDB hype is finally receding, PHP actually seems like a sane alternative.

PHP is career killer. Its makes you worse developer, confine you as web developer and have poorly paid jobs.
