The beginner mistakes line stuck with me. What types of mistakes (specific examples)? This might be useful for me to know what is going on ewith you.
Little things like inconsistent return conventions or code disagreeing with documentation comment blocks.
People are referring me to classic coder texts like Code Complete. Okay, maybe I do need a review but I fucking read that book in the 90s. It's incredibly galling.
Maybe something similar would work for you.
