Ive always wanted to acquire deep knowledge in some technology but wonder if its worth the time and also if its risky to adjust my career path towards such a direction? Specifically, I just started working a lot with big compute technologies and am facinated by it and also blown away by the depth of knowledge of some of my colleagues. I don't know if my desire is coming from a prideful desire or an objective goal to better my career
My personal preference is to specialize but this carries the risk of not finding a good job in the area of expertise if it becomes obselete, so you have to be willing to learn new subjects sometime in future
What's sme?
