I hope so, but not seeing it yet. Just a lot of buy in & acquiescence. US HE thinks students need (undefined) AI skills to compete in the job market. NACE (uni careerdev pros) spent past 2 years running prompting workshops and assembled a tech TF that assumes AI=future and won't talk real ethics.

Consistency isn't a personality trait. It's what's left over once a good system does the remembering for you.

The developers I know who ship aren't more disciplined than the rest of us. They stopped trusting their memory.

You gave someone an estimate, and they wrote it on the calendar as a commitment. The date slipped, and you felt like you'd lied.

You didn't.

An estimate is your best guess, and it's still a guess after someone turns it into a promise.

Facebook found people quit due to unfulfilling work, not bad managers. Great bosses design roles around talents, passions, and life balance.

Question: Should companies build jobs around people, rather than vice versa?

Senior+ engineers: what's the one thing you wish someone had told you before your first tech lead role?

Shipping small things and actually calling them done is underrated. Finishing compounds but endlessly working on one big thing doesn't.

The single most underrated skill for senior engineers: an organization system that actually works. Not a fancy tool. A system that captures, plans, tracks, and evolves with your role. Mine has become my career's unfair advantage.

The best devs I've worked with aren't the fastest coders. They're the ones asking clarifying questions while everyone else is already typing. Writing the spec IS the work.

Podcasters quitting around episode 7 and developers abandoning side projects usually get blamed on the same thing: they stopped caring. Really, it's that they didn't built a system to carry the work once the initial burst of energy ran out.

Decision fatigue isn't just a creator problem; it can also hit engineers just as hard. Every minute spent debating tabs vs spaces is brainpower you don't have left for the architecture. Pre-decide the small stuff so your energy goes to the hard problems.

The highest-return thing I do for my career every year isn't a course or a certification. It's showing up in person at a PHP conference.

Longhorn PHP is one of my favorites. If you can go, go. https://longhornphp.com/

In computers: A lot of things work when things are small. It's when things get big that you have to really know what you're doing, or you're going to wind up with a mess. Just because something works at 50k lines doesn't speak to 500k lines

I used to think shipping smaller PRs was just a process thing. Now I think it's a career skill. The engineers who grow fastest aren't the ones who make fewer bad assumptions; they just set things up so they find out they're wrong sooner.

For years I measured myself by how much syntax I'd memorized. Then a model wrote me a working tool in a language I've never touched, and that scorecard stopped meaning anything.

What's left is knowing whether the output is right.

Nobody labels the scary parts of legacy code. That MD5 `==` login check I found let "magic hash" strings in without a password for years, and it looked fine at a glance. Fix a codebase like that one unsafe line at a time. Leave each file safer than you found it. #CareerDev #PHP

Early in my career, I proved myself by writing code. Now I prove myself by deleting it. Half my "clever" helpers already existed in the stdlib; I just hadn't read the manual. Less code I own means less I have to maintain.

The gap between a senior dev and a junior one isn't years of experience. It's whether you catch your own mistakes before someone else has to point them out.
