Teach the principle, not the patch

The hardest part of being a senior engineer isn't solving the hard problem. It's watching someone struggle toward it slower than you could, and keeping your hands in your pockets. Unblocking means pointing at the answer. Carrying means they need you again next time. At iTriage I learned the most durable thing a senior engineer ships is other engineers. The shortcut you hand them today is the context gap you own forever.
