I build stuff. Most of it is pretty nuts. Currently working on LuxBlaster, N64 Dev, and whatever it takes to build a working scale model of a HPC super cluster.

      1,000,000% this. If a senior engineer can’t explain it to you in a way you understand - even if you are a lot less experienced - that’s THEIR deficiency. Not yours. When this happens, it means THEY actually don’t understand it well enough.https://twitter.com/noahsussman/status/1170870234066165760 …

      The best engineers are not only good at listening but they are good at explaining as well. If you have been overwhelmed and intimidated by a senior engineer please consider the Dunning-Kruger effect. It's likely that person knows less than they think they do. A lot less.

      Still no. "Blasting" is bullying behavior, and seniors should never model that for juniors. Juniors are still learning what's Googelable, how to ask good questions, and how to collaborate. It's possible to teach them, "Oh, this is one you can Google," without being a dick.

      I've been on both sides of this and as someone who became senior because of people who "blasted" me, I have no kind words for them. I either tell people what I would search for or talk to them later. There is no need to blast someone who just wants/need to learn.

      Totally. And I think sometimes people ask questions partly because they have a need for connection. If somebody's working environment isn't meeting that need, that's a sign to me we could improve something about how we work.

      Sometimes I wanted/want just affirmation that what I think I know is true. I've been compiling my own OSes from source, from basically nothing for years. I just recently purchased a book that's an introduction to gcc/g++ simply to leave no stone unturned.

      Without spiraling into a rant, there's a lot of partial/biased/wrong/wrong context being presented as truth out there. There's _a lot_ to the raw educational aspect of tech that google just can't hit 100% of the time
