Sorry, I have to disagree with the entire premise here.
A wide variety of experiences might lead to well-roundedness, but not to greatness, nor even goodness. By constantly switching from one thing to another you are always reaching above your comfort zone, yes, but doing so by resetting your skill and knowledge level to zero.
Mastery comes from a combination of at least several of the following:
(comment ; Fun with transducers, v2 | |
;; Still haven't found a brief + approachable overview of Clojure 1.7's new | |
;; transducers in the particular way I would have preferred myself - so here goes: | |
;;;; Definitions | |
;; Looking at the `reduce` docstring, we can define a 'reducing-fn' as: | |
(fn reducing-fn ([]) ([accumulation next-input])) -> new-accumulation | |
;; (The `[]` arity is actually optional; it's only used when calling | |
;; `reduce` w/o an init-accumulator). |

Simply put, destructuring in Clojure is a way extract values from a datastructure and bind them to symbols, without having to explicitly traverse the datstructure. It allows for elegant and concise Clojure code.

If you prefer to watch video tutorials with live-coding, then check out this series I recorded with the same contents as in this article: Egghead.io - Introduction to Reactive Programming.
As compiled by Kevin Wright a.k.a @thecoda
(executive producer of the movie, and I didn't even know it... clever huh?)
please, please, please - If you know of any slides/code/whatever not on here, then ping me on twitter or comment this Gist!
This gist will be updated as and when I find new information. So it's probably best not to fork it, or you'll miss the updates!

These are all the JSConf 2014 slides, codes, and notes I was able to cull together from twitter. Thanks to the speakers who posted them and thanks to @chantastic for posting his wonderful notes.
I have moved this over to the Tech Interview Cheat Sheet Repo and has been expanded and even has code challenges you can run and practice against!
