Most tech content is bullshit, Why senior engineers get nothing done, Remote Work Means Anyone Can Take Your Job... and more.

Something to read 📖

Most tech content is bullshit
Over the past few years, as I've been working and talking with many developers, I noticed a repetitive pattern. It's been troubling me a lot, and I keep thinking and talking about, trying to understand, or even excuse. by Aleksandra

Why senior engineers get nothing done
Remember when you started your job, how was it? Let me guess: the sheer amount of new things to learn was overwhelming, you felt out of your depth, and your calendar was open and free after the first week of onboarding activities. by Swizec Teller

Remote Work Means Anyone Can Take Your Job
Now thousands of people could be competing for your role from around the world. When everyone’s face is milliseconds away on a Zoom call, who cares where their butts are sitting? Remote workers could be anywhere in the world. They are, by default, outsourced. by Indi Samarajiva

What does a project manager do on a daily basis?
Maybe that’s a question you’ve been asking yourself or others if you have been considering a PM career for a while. To be honest, it’s gonna be quite hard to put all the PM roles under one roof as project managers in one industry can differ from PMs in another. by Team Codegiant

I once had an offer to be a “senior engineer” when I was 2 years out of school.
More than feeling flattered, it just made me think poorly of the company and turn their offer down.
I have 0 regrets doing that even today.
