      If you're new to the software industry, or looking for a job, you really should be listening to those doing the work. You don't have to agree with everything they say, but you should be listening. Ask questions and challenge everything -- even if you can't afford to say it out loud.

      As much as I want to eyeroll the mass cancellations and suddenly-horrified reactions to the status quo in tech, I have to remind myself that we all have our own journeys, biases, and bubbles to pop. 
      
      For those arriving today, there's plenty of room on board. Keep your mind open to more patterns.
