every day i check TC threads and feel like shit. everyone on here makes 400k+ and im stuck at 180k.
logically i know this is survivorship bias. the people who post TC threads are the ones with high TC.
but emotionally? this shit eats at me. comparison is the thief of joy and blind is a comparison engine.

180k puts you in the top 5% of earners in the US. you are doing incredibly well by any objective measure

survivorship bias + geographic bias + level bias. the people posting are senior+ at FAANG in the bay area. thats 0.1% of all engineers
