I was a senior developer within my first year, so I guess this tracks with the mid-wit theory. Now I’m well beyond that level I answer all questions with “it depends”.

a senior engineer should has nothing to do with a fisher price toy, a glorified miniature lamborgini. real engineers should only use thinkpad.

Recently happened that I was asked to fix a problem in a thing for some collaborators. It was quite some time I didn't look at this thing, but I opened it and fixed it.

Apparently we had 3 of those things and I fixed the wrong one. Oh well, went on vacation the following day and eventually got to fixing it a couple weeks later.

Nobody died.
