I don't know what you do, but I couldn't get through a day as a software engineer without those skills. That said, I'll give you credit for pointing out critical thinking as a rare activity for most adults. ; )
- scotty79 14y agoI'm web developer who works remotely. I worked in corporation for some time where we had multi-person real live meetings but they were devoid of any real discussion or content. I also worked in few start-ups where we discussed important things in person but I never talked to more than two people at the same time. If you really have to discuss things that require critical thinking with a group of people daily I think you are fairly unique and I don't envy you. :-)
- bzalasky 14y agoDaily, the group is no more than 3 or 4 other engineers and designers (and there's plenty of time to code w/ headphones on), but the core skill I'm talking about is being able to think critically on your feet. We pair code a lot, and I feel like that's one of the places where experience thinking out loud is helpful.
