In this episode of the Mix the panelists talk about Seniority. They lay out their own personal journeys towards getting a senior title and how they define seniority for themselves - especially how it goes beyond the ability to write code well.Among other things they discuss:<ul><li>how to become fluent in reading and writing code</li><li>how side projects are useful but not required to become a great developer</li><li>how senior developers tend to approach problem solving and how to get better at that</li><li>how interpersonal skills play at least an equal role as technical knowledge</li><li>how specific tech know-how becomes less and less important the further developers climb the ladder - at least the managerial ladder</li><li>how organizational structures cannot be ignored when building solutions</li></ul>They close with some picks which they deem valuable for anybody who'd like to dig deeper into some of these ideas.Links<ul><li><a href="https://www.hillelwayne.com/post/are-we-really-engineers/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Are We Really Engineers? * Hillel Wayne</a></li><li><a href="https://pragprog.com/titles/btlang/seven-languages-in-seven-weeks/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Seven Languages in Seven Weeks</a></li><li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway's_law" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Conway's law - Wikipedia</a></li><li><a href="https://teamtopologies.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Team Topologies</a></li><li><a href="https://www.manning.com/books/the-little-elixir-and-otp-guidebook" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Little Elixir & OTP Guidebook</a></li></ul>Picks<ul><li>Adi- <a href="https://www.manning.com/books/the-little-elixir-and-otp-guidebook" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The Little Elixir & OTP Guidebook</a></li><li>Adi- <a href="https://pragprog.com/titles/btlang/seven-languages-in-seven-weeks/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Seven Languages in Seven Weeks</a></li><li>Adi- <a href="https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/god-of-war-ragnarok/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">God of War Ragnarök - PS5 Games | PlayStation</a></li><li>Sascha- <a href="https://gojko.net/books/specification-by-example/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Specification by Example</a></li><li>Sascha- <a href="https://exercism.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Exercism</a></li><li>Sascha- <a href="https://saschawolf.me/2019/01/you-got-this-2019-you-know-nothing" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">You Know Nothing ... or do you? - Sascha Wolf</a></li></ul>Become a supporter of this podcast: <a href="https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/elixir-mix--6102049/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss">https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/elixir-mix--6102049/support</a>.
