The bullet points in the article are reasonable enough, but almost every explanation is questionable. I’ll just address one.

Soft skills are indeed very important, and sometimes more so than technical skills. However:

> Technical skills are the ones you can learn easily. With different projects, you can understand a particular programming language. You can learn its syntax, pros and cons. It's just a matter of practice.

Technical skills are not just about programming language syntax. I wonder how long the author’s been in the industry (apparently “a lot of years”) or how narrow his role is, that he’s never had to learn completely new concepts or paradigms.

And even the soft skills section is bizarre. What can I learn about utilizing my soft skills from the author’s list of all the times they thought a colleague was unhelpful or “toxic”?

Weird article.
