I’m a mid-level backend dev, ~3 years YOE. I wanted to seriously start thinking about expanding my skillset and learning new stuff / new technologies outside of my daily tasks. But I’m unsure of how to start, how to decide, what would be most helpful to my career, etc. Any advice?

      I so hate it when people use these ridiculous acronyms with meanings dependent on context. Just type out experience and everyone will know what you’re talking about. What does ‘level’ even mean in this context? Do you level up to level 2 when you get enough experience like in a video game?

        That makes more sense. I thought Level Of Effort. When I googled what it meant I found 3 different abbreviations in different contexts.

        LOE in finance: Letter of explanation LoE in legal?: Levels of Evidence ncbi nom nig gov link?

        And as I mentioned Level of Effort.
