Programmer and consultant Andrew Oliver dropped some knowledge for junior programmers in a recent column. It may seem like common sense to you now but don't forget that you didn't always have the experience you take for granted. What advice do you have to impart?
Also, take note of your peers. If you're an early 20-something, chances are you have no real power or influence, and neither do your peers. In five to 10 years, that will all be different and the person who you ignored because they were boring and couldn't help you will be the person who could have won you an important opportunity.
