Earlier quoted context omitted.

Mind you, I have no worries regarding performance. But man, thats one attack vector too many.

I'm getting close to the end of my third decade as a software developer and one constant I've observed is that your actual performance is irrelevant, however it's measured - the only thing that matters is how much everybody else likes you (as depressing or reassuring as that may be for one's particular circumstances).

Yeah I’m around the same time on the clock and when I’m asked how to be successful in your career my primary advice is being successful in your work is neither necessary nor sufficient to become successful in your career. The only thing that matters is being perceived as successful.

The title is clickbait, obviously offensive to approximately everybody. This is just two CEOs of companies you've never heard of, bullshitting on a podcast one of them runs.

Watch the elite when they're comfortable.
