1. You are not your tools
  
  A few weeks ago, I was on the JS Party podcast chatting about the rise and fall of JS libraries. Host Kevin Ball and I talked about the ebb and flow of tools, and how the tools we use today likely won’t be the tools that we’re using to build for the web in another five to ten years. I see a shift away from heavy client-side JavaScript, and back to pre-rendered HTML with a sprinkling of JS for interactivity.
2. A good craftsperson never blames their tools
  
  Yesterday, I came across a site someone had created to trash the popular Blue Yeti microphone and encourage people to buy other, more expensive options instead. It included all of the typical gatekeeping nonsense you’d expect from a site like that: This is what all the cool kids are using these days… You’ll sound like a true podcaster…. …ultimately you’d be better just throwing it in the bin and getting one of the suggested options.
