Ask HN: What are your new learnings from 2020?

1. My intuition has literally never been wrong and every single time I've decided to ignore it and listen to any advice, I just got myself into problems.

2. Self-confidence, assertiveness, determitation to get whatever you want and some impudence are amost always more important than your skills and intelligence.

3. If you try you hardest to work smarter, not harder, you can find amazingly easy ways to get things done. You just need to believe that there's a shortcut, and you almost always will find it.

This 2020 I learned a lot about building machine learning models and working with huge datasets
