All of her quotes are women; who are portrayed as 'the way'
>As he shipped fast, he broke things, He was constantly fighting the very issues he created. Not only did he make a culture of constant firefighting normal, he was constantly creating more mess.
when it's about the 'brilliant jerk", Always HE. Very interesting how she is displaying gender as the success metric.
>A 10x engineer, therefore, isn’t someone who is 10 times better than those around them, but someone who makes those around them 10 times better.
The 10x engineer isn't a superhero neo. It's the person who is capable of performing the tasks. Imagine an outage at 7am, 8am meeting for the whole team.
The night owl who got 3 hours sleep before the 8am meeting isnt going to be 1x.
The spreadsheet guru who loves pivot tables but cant code worth a damn isnt 1x.
The coop-rookie who is eager to learn but isnt going to contribute to the team isnt 1x.
The parent whose kid was sick all night, and now they are sick for the 10th time this year isnt 1x.
The tinkerer who is really good in the homelab but the business wants nowhere near production isnt 1x.
The negative nancy who is only going to say whatever the fix is, is wrong and wont work isnt 1x.
The 'opportunity to do that big change' person who doesnt realize you dont do that during outages isnt 1x.
The 'ive been promoted because ive been here 15 years but never learnt anything' isnt 1x.
The 10x engineer is pissed off because HE is a 1x engineer and everyone around him are operating at 0.1x.
