Awesome write. Playing long term games always works.
"Perhaps most importantly, be willing to be temporarily uncool"
The whole piece was well though of and I did not only enjoy reading it, I also learned a lot from it.
Thanks for writing this!
Thank you so much for writing this, Idris. As someone who prioritizes depth, it’s easy to feel overlooked in a world that often rewards trend-chasing. This was such a timely reminder that meaningful work may take longer, but it builds lasting impact. While trends can have their place, depth is what truly stands the test of time.
I don’t have words to describe how deep this is. This is mind-blowing and well articulated.
"Trends come and go, but depth gives you staying power." Well written Olanesoft.

The question about what comes after accomplishments resonated — I hit the same wall after shipping a multi-agent system last year. Depth compounds in ways that chasing the next framework never does, because deep understanding transfers across paradigms while surface-level trend knowledge expires every six months. Your point about self-reflection as a deliberate practice is the part most developers skip.
