The best software engineers I know all have this in common: • Start coding with big dreams at 21. • Get rejected by companies at 22. • Take the job they could get at 23. • Spend 2 years fixing bugs and writing CRUD APIs. • Feel behind when others post big salaries online. • Try to switch at 26. • Fail interviews at 27. • Realize tutorials were not enough. • Finally learn CS fundamentals, system design, databases, networking, and how real systems break. • Start building better at 29. • Become dangerous at 31. And change their family’s future by 35. With their sharpest years still ahead. Software engineering is not a sprint. It is a long game of skill, patience, and staying in the fight. Keep going.

Since peoole had trouble understanding the report, we've decided to make a major change. We will no longer drop 10k word nuanced pieces that describe what's happening in AI from models to datacenters to silicon. Instead we will do infographics even the buy side can understand.
