Re:Ask HN: What huge mistake did you make early in your career? by raffraffraff on Sunday June 20, 2021 @04:27AM (#27568216)
As long as you hung around long enough to figure out how to work with difficult people, and learn how your design decisions and code actually run in production (ie: you got to fix your own bugs) then you probably didn't miss much. I worked with one person who had an impressive string of senior roles at big companies, but my personal experience was that they implemented a dumpster fire using the latest hot new thing, and quit after it blew up production a few times.
