What advice do you have for junior developers trying to make it? Is there a niched area you specialized in or were you a generalist?

  How about: don't believe in yourself because luck is everything? I walked into Google with 15 years of industry experience. I lucked out being in the early days of the web, lucked out in the dot-com boom, lucked out with a referral to Google, lucked out with real estate appreciation.

    got to appreciate the honesty! i've seen some peers whom i felt really sucked at tech rise through what appeared to be luck alone.
