Stand out from a crowded job market by writing technical blog posts. This is super valuable advice I wish I'd known much earlier. Now I'm in a position to make hiring decisions, developers which can prove their mastery and passion through their writing stand head-and-shoulders above other candidates. Perhaps most importantly, through writing, they demonstrate a clarity of thought and give an insight into their personality which allows them to effectively shortcut a major part of (at least my) interview process.

Thanks! That's why I have been talking about technical writing and its power since I started with it in 2019. Many engineers disregard it as "ah, it's just blog posts", but it's more than that. It can have a huge impact on your career.
