How did bro in the video go from 115k salary to 85k salary as a junior
Can you do a "You're an American pilot stranded in Iran"?
you forgot the part where they fire you at junior level then rehire you to reset the timeline on your stock benefits
I’ve no idea why this filled me with so much joy lol there’s very little hope that I’ll make Distinguished in my lifetime. Thank you for at least giving me the feels of what it might feel like to be one.
Biggest Achievement out of all: "A Badge that works on all the doors!"
This is completely unrealistic
7:24 🕒 “That’s not failure. That’s multiplication.” This part hits different! 🧠 It captures the exact moment a Senior Engineer transitions from an individual contributor to a true leader. Realizing that someone else implementing your design better than you is a win, not a threat, is the ultimate ego-check. 📈 It’s no longer about your own code; it’s about the impact you create by empowering those around you. 🚀 This shift from "addition" to "multiplication" is what truly transforms a job into a lasting legacy. Such a profound and meaningful insight! 💎✨
I want to be a super senior distinguished ML engineer
diplomat role please
I was waiting for this TYVM
so true that video part so yea underated youtube but it helps a lot
Big love from Sudan. Keep it up
