Another pro tip:

I solve the most complex problems when I'm fishing or doing something else I enjoy that doesn't involve sitting in front of a computer. When I just let my brain do it's thing, that's when the magic happens.

Engineering isn't about writing code. Engineering is about solving problems. Anybody can write code. But not just anybody can turn code into a meaningful, well thought out solution.

The longer you do this, the more you realize that there are "developers" and there are "software engineers". HR thinks they are the same thing. They're not.
