BEWARE OUTDATED TECH CAREER ADVICE
If you're new to tech, take advice from old-timers with a grain of salt. The industry has changed so much in the last 15–20 years that their career path might not even exist anymore. What worked for them—like landing a job with just a coding bootcamp—might not cut it today. Tech moves fast, and what got someone hired in 2010 won’t necessarily work in 2025. Stay flexible and focus on what works now.
