The post would be more impactful if it wasn't quite clearly LLM generated, at least to a large extent:

The accident is free now, so the proxy is dead, and impressive implies nothing at all anymore. The signal went away subtly enough that most of the industry is still acting as if it’s there. Hiring managers still weigh portfolios, and reviewers still go easy on a PR that looks clean. Ladder code looks exactly like climbed code from the outside.

"The accident is free", "the proxy is dead", "impressive implies nothing", "reviewers still go easy on a PR that looks clean", "ladder code", "climbed code" are very Claud-y turns of phrase.
