The Conjoined Triangles of Senior-Level Development

I had the same reaction -- all good until that same paragraph. This kind of broke it all -- do these people understand what they are writing about?

I recall my own feeling of getting into another universe after I finally started to systematically look into the assembly code generated by the compiler, and it took me 6 years to develop the need for this.

It has been at least 5 years that I have removed 'Senior' from my LinkedIn profile ;-)

Also,

> Without a clear definition of “senior developer", we have no clear path for our own employees to get there.

This seems like an anti-pattern of circular logic to me: Why would you want to “get there” when it's unclear what “being there” even means?

Are you kidding? Titles mean something. And then there's the pay raise...
