I am beginner who thought before doing the String Methods section of the course "You know what, let's test my skills". And boy my skills were tested. After I completed the challenge my jaw dropped, with the solution.

Had/Have this happened to y'all. Where you make something complicated and found out that there was a simple solution?

From a maintainability standpoint, absolutely. Computers have gotten fast enough to let programmers optimize for developer time instead

Yep, this. The code we write is eventually used or extended by other developers. Or, more commonly, yourself after not touching it for 6 to 12 months, by which point you'll have forgotten all about your clever tricks. (Speaking from experience of course ๐Ÿ˜‰)

Maaan, I wanna be developer soo bad but where I live they want full-stack developers, not frontend developers.

I know why they want full-stack developers, but why hire a front end developer and back end developer when you can hire full stack developer.

The closest thing to a back end development is a DevOps Engineer.
