May 25, 2026, 10:06 AMI've always thought about "market value" as an ever growing todo list. Keeping up with new languages, frameworks, and "best practices". Reading books about hard and soft skills. And, of course, doing all this after my jobby job is done.
While reading @cate book "The Enigneering Leader", I found a better description:
> If your job doesn't match the market in a way that will eventually make it hard for you to find another one, hopefully your employer is paying a lot of rent […] because that job is eroding your market value.
