The senior/staff/principal/distinguished part of a tech title doesn’t only imply ability, it also implies leadership. If you have lots of ability, but aren’t able to lead or set a good example, you aren’t earning the “senior/staff/principal/distinguished” part of your title.

At my company, people feel comfortable saying "I messed something up. Here's how I'm going to fix it" I never stopped to appreciate this small yet huge cultural aspect of the company. It's beautiful.

Experience (and thus, seniority) can't be rushed. Otherwise you get to be one of those people with one year of experience repeated twenty times.

Being a principal engineer means just trying to get everyone to choose more boring technology choices.

Many product design decisions that /seem/ right /feel/ wrong. The better way is often discovered, not declared. You’ve gotta use the thing to know the thing.

A system’s resilience is not defined by its lack of errors; it’s defined by its ability to survive many, many, many errors. We build systems that are friendlier to humans and users alike not by decreasing our tolerance for errors, but by increasing it. - @mipsytipsy
