I think the hard part about not doing stupid shit is knowing what the stupid shit is. This advice is great for people with intermediate-to-advanced knowledge of the field they want to "stop doing stupid shit".

Though it is mentioned in the article, I think it doesn't get as much attention, the most important part to this little piece of advice for someone learning something new: Learn what you should not be doing as well as what you should. (People usually focus on the later and not the former) ... A great tip for educators too.
