> This is why engineering career ladders start to layer in responsibilities for things that a single individual can’t accomplish themselves. This doesn’t mean you need to become a manager, but it does mean you need to look beyond yourself to maximize the value you’re able to bring to the people who are ultimately paying you.

This is where I am right now. I've been a dev professionally for 2.5 years, and I'm looking ahead to what it will take to become a lead and eventually a senior engineer. I notice other senior engineers around me continuously providing value to those other than themselves: in the form of contributing more documentation, directing and organizing design meetings, and in general taking time to gather others to solve a recurring technical issue org-wide, once and for all.

It’s a well paved road. Think suburban mainstreet. Thanks for your help!

Yeah used is probably my best bet. It’s only 7 miles a day roundtrip.

I can attest to perseverance and luck having been crucial to my success as a developer. Getting in the door for an internship was a numbers game, as I was still in community college and most companies don’t take candidates like that seriously.

After getting in though, personality and hard work factored more in carrying me through to better opportunities (luck was still involved though).

I suspect your journey will be the same from here on out, and you don’t seem to lack perseverance and personality. So good luck!

I really hope this pans out for them. Their stock has been flat for a while now, but they’ve also claimed they were heavily investing in electric vehicles for some time as well.

It’ll be interesting to see who will take the lead in the next 5 years- startup automakers like Tesla or these larger auto titans who in theory should have been first to the game.

Sorry can you expand on this a bit? I can’t tell if this is a reference/joke or you’re making a higher point that I’m just not picking up.

I wonder what this will do for $INTC?
