@WaffleFries - do you have a good mentor? If so, how did you find this person?

Another one. Yes, the best mentors I’ve had came from working alongside people who were consistently sharp, generous, and good at explaining tradeoffs, so I found them.

That’s right because the best mentors are usually the ones whose work you can actually watch up close and learn from consistently.
