Well put. Things you do today will set yourself up for mobility later. Consider continuing-education part of your job. For me, at least 25% of my time is spent on education every week. There's no end-goal, you just have to stay up on

The most clever press-releases I've seen in recent-months have taken the form of guest-articles / guest-posts on places like TechCrunch. Of course it can't be a hard sell (no overt plugs). But they can be an opportunity to

FWIW: I used to use 3 screens (main one in the middle, and an extra desktop to the right and left)... and could have never envisioned going without at least one external monitor. Then I went fully remote for a few years, and switched enti
