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 …

I agree with this mostly. But people are a diverse bunch. Here and there I’m sure there are folk who are the right engineering lead and the right manager, but not the right teacher. I would expect them to be a very small minority of senior engineers, though.

just because it's like that now, doesn't mean it should be. communication skills can be learned!

Again, given the diversity of people in my life, I think that is sometimes true.
