    One of the best things a Senior Eng taught me was to understand and ask questions about every single line of code in a file you’re touching.

    It’s daunting, and time consuming but the rewards are vast and eventually it will be much quicker. Of course it’s easier to follow patterns and make quick changes, but it’s more valuable to fully understand what you’re doing instead of suggesting changes that should work.
