This was written nearly a year ago, and I still find it true today. It's really not clear what skills transfer between major model releases. Like trying to be a grandmaster at chess when the rules change unpredictably every week:
“We're all junior developers again. But not junior in the traditional sense, where senior is waiting after enough years pass. We're junior in a permanent sense, where the technology evolves faster than expertise can accumulate.
“It's like being a professional surfer on an ocean that keeps changing its physics. Just when you think you understand waves, they start moving sideways. Or backwards. Or turning into birds.”
