This article makes me think of the skill tree or roadmap posts we’ve seen here on HN or Reddit over the years. For example https://roadmap.sh/frontend …

I feel like we could do a better job of providing ourselves fundamental tools like this in helping ourselves and others learn. Not just in tech, but in life overall. The “dev” tree above is embedded in the life skill tree that should start in elementary school.

Haha, even the life skill tree has “fictional” branches that intercept the game world skill tree … you really do have to learn all of the dependencies necessary to case 5th level fireballs … there are real rules to be learned in the games their usefulness is just siloed into the fictional realm.

Edit: I forgot to point out that roadmap is open source here: https://github.com/kamranahmedse/developer-roadmap
