Quite broad advice that just seems bad for new programmers.

Like, ask for help? You need to learn to solve stuff without disturbing the team.

Vote with your feet? Juniors are not in the position to do that.

People can't read your mind? Actually people are quite good at reading your mind and alot of things are supposed to be said by indirect hints to save face.

Soft skills? Way overrated - just don't be toxic and avoid obvoius trouble.

Know your worth? Build a brand? Say no?

This guy is just listing stuff he gets away with by not being new to the field. The advice would be worthless to himself when he bagan ...

Edit: The one advice I would like to have had is "no-one will notice if you give 110% or keep a 60% substainable pace. Relax and keep grinding".
