I too am reading through Code Complete (2nd ed.) and feel stuck in an IT shop where (like the first commenter) everyone is too busy to apply software engineering concepts, but the focus is often just "get the job done". I can't help that feel that this mentality is the reason why it's so hard for someone like me to catch on. It's because this mentality leads to over-complexity.I can't help but wonder, however, since this was written in 2007. Did you ever find that mentor?

I feel as if it could save me years of frustration. In addition to the great blogs you mentioned, I also like <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/rickstrahl" rel="nofollow">Rick Strahl's</a> web log and articles. Thanks for the jQuery mask tool, just what I was looking for. Hi Josh, ditto on the mentor thing, I would love to have someone who could whip me into shape.
