How and when to discuss career developments? I recently started my new role in industry as a senior consultant. Based on networking/stalking people on LinkedIn, most managers stayed in my role for 1-2 years and then got promoted to mangers. I had almost 4 years of experience at EY, so I would want to be promoted within a year or so. I’m a high performer, but I’m still learning and building relationships. When/how to bring it up to my manger for promotion goal, so I don’t come off too aggressive?

What do you think about switching tech stacks vs becoming an expert in one stack? I am a backend Java engineer, and have solely used Java since I've started my software engineering career about 2 years ago. I don't know whether I should explore other tech stacks while I'm young, or instead focus on becoming a Java expert, given that I enjoy working in Java.

I have a tax question. My father in law passed away in 2020 and we inherited his house. We are still in the probate process and we haven't got the house title. However, we have been paying the mortage and interest since we inherited the house. We filed the tax return for deceased person last year. Can we claim the mortgage interest deduction this year on our joint return (even though the 1099 will have my father in law's name)? Really appreciate any help!
