Recursion is a computer science practice where a function calls itself until it reaches an exit condition. Sound pretty simple, right?

2020 was a busy and challenging year; due to covid and downsizing, I had lost my previous job, and after more than two years, I had to start looking for a new job while the unemployment rate was sky high, losing my job caught me unprepared. When I was looking for a new job, I soon realized that even though I was practicing pretty modern and cutting-edge technologies, I still had many knowledge gaps. While searching for a new job, I learned a lot and caught up a bit, but I'm still not where I would like to be. During this period, any time I came across something I didn't know and wanted to learn, I added this to an endless list that just kept getting longer and longer. Thinking about where I see myself in a year and what knowledge I would like to possess, I refind the list while trying to be as efficient and realistic as possible at the same time. I hope to return to this post in a year and see that I have accomplished (hopefully most of it).

Hi *,

Welcome to my new blog and my first post ever!

My Name is Yakov, a Frontend web developer from Haifa, Israel.

As a self-taught developer, I’ve stumbled across many topics, concepts, and disciplines that looked very intimidating and complicated at first. Still, after time and time again, they started to make sense. Subsequently, my confidence has grown, and step by step, I felt more comfortable learning new things.
