Everyday Objects That You Believe Should Be Improved Upon

What are some everyday things that can never be obsolete?

By “things” I assume you mean objects made and used by humans, as obsolete suggests that it becomes no longer useful to humans replaced by a better alternative.I do not believe any everyday thing can be classed as never obsolete. Suppose we end up in a completely virtual existence in the far future all physical things will be obsolete. That leaves non physical things. such as language or ideas. Time has shown these become obsolete and replaced with better ones.

What are some basic things I can do everyday to become a better programmer?

I take for granted you program every day because you work as developer or because it's your hobby. If don't, you have to start to program every day no matter what.1. Read blogs from developers or websites about programming with technical posts, tutorials, news. The programming world changes every day with new ways to do things, frameworks or any other crazy stuff. You need to have up to date! BONUS: If you feel brave, write your own blog and share your every day as developer. Talk about new concepts you just learnt or how to solve a very specific thing you did yesterday.2. See others people code. Download your frameworks, tools or languages with the source code and see how other programmers resolve problems. Follow developers in Github and see their projects. If you work with others developers in the same project, always check their commits and ask to them if you don't understand what they are trying to do :)3. Read questions in Stackoverflow or any other forums and try to answer them. Never underestimate yourself, don't think your are not good enough to help other people, there are question from any level, from basic to advanced, read all and try to help. Anyway, it's ok if you don't write answers, but try to read as much as you can how other people offer differents solutions to the same problem.4. Go to meetups and technical conferences. If you don't have time to attend to them, you can watch their videos. The most part of conferences upload their talks to Youtube or any other video sites.5. Read, read and read. Books, tutorials, blogs, open source code. Reading technical stuff must be a part of your everyday work.
