Many tweets last week about the joke that is the gov'ts career change site.
But for anyone who is thinking about changing careers, I have some time to do a few zoom calls. I've done a change myself (teaching > developer > now dev rel) & have some insights.

Getting a CS degree is a good path for some, but for others it's just not in the cards.
So what if you could gain those skills without going to a 4-year school?

Sometimes I feel like engineering is all about surviving the first few years. And then suddenly companies reach out to you.
We should be hiring more junior devs and growing their careers rather than obsessing over hiring seniors.
