I’ve spent the last couple years as a solo freelance developer. Comparing this experience to previously working in companies, I’ve noticed that those of us who work alone can have fewer iterative opportunities for improvement than developers who work on teams.

In order to to have opportunity to improve, we need to embrace the concept of a short feedback loop. This is a process of incorporating new learning from observation and previous experience continuously over a short period of time. This process has to be manufactured by people working mostly alone, instead of, as is often the case, adopted when you join a team.
