I think the author is making a lot of assumptions here. I'll break them down.

> High-paying careers favor those with the stomach for deep, solitary work.

I assume he means programming. Just because you work in a solitary environment doesn't mean you're an introvert. It really more requires the ability to focus more than anything in my experience. I've known a bunch of great programmers who were also extroverts.

> In-person schmoozing has taken a backseat to an online workday where the ability to self-motivate matters most.

I don't think this has changed because promotion is based largely on human bias more than anything. Making an impression on someone is still as important as it ever was, we just do it using a different medium. (zoom, teams, slack, email).

> Crafting a witty one-liner on apps determines your dating success — not the ability to pick someone up at a bar.

It might get you a date, but your personality gets you the second date.
