A pattern I see over and over is good engineers doing exactly what you suggest, writing those docs, filling in the communication gaps, and then being told they’re not “technical” enough for their role, or a promotion, or a raise. It sounds

That’s not true, and I can think of several examples where rent control would help grad students: Grad students often live in Santa Cruz long term. I know multiple people in Santa Cruz who went back to school for higher degrees, and kept th
