The biggest level up an engineer can get is learning how to communicate and write well. Many can whip up a full stack app; fewer can document what they did coherently; fewer still can communicate what they did and why to end users and customers. There's good money to be made in being a great engineer _and_ a great communicator!

The biggest level up someone can get is learning how to communicate and write well. Fixed that for you.

  > The biggest level up someone can get is learning how to communicate and write well. I am not sure it is so generalisable. For example, between learning how to code and learning how to communicate and write well, I do not know which would be the bigger level up.

    If you can't express clearly want you want to code you are going to waste time brute forcing.

      Let's consider the implications of this statement. If it were true, all capable programmers would be good communicators. Are they?

        Do capable programmers by definition never brute force solutions?

I will misquote you like so: fewer still can communicate what they did and why even to themselves.
