The inclusion of the perspective section: https://github.com/charlax/professional-programming?tab=read... I think is really smart. Same for personal productivity. Two things that can dramatically change how and what you end up studying and doing with your time / life.
I did a coding bootcamp and yeah the frontend knowledge they taught was useful, but I could have learned that online for free. Looking back, the far more valuable thing I learned was how to discipline myself and my time - that was the first time in my life I was truly disciplined and mindful in how I spent my time. I also got perspective I'd never seen before: there was some folks in my cohort that were in their 30s and 40s and undergoing career change, and I learned two things from them: First, don't stress too much, your life has much more flexibility than you might expect (this truth is borne out, they all have perfectly successful careers in their new lives as engineers), and second, make a great use of the time you have.
Bog-standard advice we all know, but to witness it firsthand from people living it and sharing it is different. The shared article in the github is incredible: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2020/sep/07/termin...
I often wonder why I don't see more of these sorts of articles. From watching a family member slowly die of cancer, and from reading books like "When Breath Becomes Air," I'm guessing it's some combination of exhaustion, disability, and a new set of priorities that doesn't really involve death blogging. Still, I find these kinds of writings more poignant than most things I read.
