If you're Tim here, here's a career protip Don't spend all your "empowerment" energy at one company. Companies WILL undervalue "glue" developers (and also "glue" teams).

Turn your "helping others" energy into one of helping the broader development community. Pay it forward there and it will reap more dividends.
