I'd counter that taking it in this direction can actually help you get more honest with yourself about what value you can provide. For example, if you don't have wealth or privilege behind you, you may should maybe focus being the

Everybody is saying both / be T-shaped. There is no free lunch though. You can't have it both ways. If you choose both that means you are going less deep or less wide than you could have gone had you picked one. That may seem obv

I don't think it is fair to say "we almost never ask for feedback". Every dev I know asks for feedback during the interview process. They rarely get it because of strict company policies on not giving out feedback. Simply ask

This is so true. Honest feedback is so rare yet so useful I'm surprised there aren't more people in the business of selling it. The number of people who could use a good business coach, therapist, etc. far exceeds the number of pe
