Topic: Career Growth

Today we explore the transformative concept of 'Luck Surface Area,' a strategic framework for career growth initially proposed by Jason Roberts and expanded by Aaron Francis. We believe that luck is not merely random chance but a calculable variable defined by the formula Luck = Doing × Telling. By combining deep passion for a craft with effective public communication, developers can significantly increase their exposure to unexpected opportunities such as job offers or global collaborations. We emphasize that sharing 'work in progress' or 'raw experiences' is often more valuable than waiting for perfection, as transparency fosters genuine connection and trust within the tech community. Ultimately, we argue that the primary barrier for many technical professionals is not a lack of skill but a hesitation to broadcast their work, which effectively minimizes their potential for success.
