I'm not worried about now. There are jobs now. I'm worried about the future, because unless you either (a) align a string of high-value projects or (b) move into management, you are toast by a certain age in our industry, no matter how good you are. I know some top-notch programmers who've been utterly screwed. (I'm not in that category, but don't want to end up there in 15 years.)
- tptacek 13y agoNeither of those statements are true. You consistently seem to equate "not in the spotlight" with "screwed"; or, more (or less, depending your POV) charitably, you evince some signs of mental illness (anxiety, depression). It's not really any of my business, but on the off chance that you haven't talked to a professional about that possibility, I think you might consider doing that. You sound deeply unhappy.
