Cageface: the old guys better watch out because there's lots of hungry smart young guys.
Patio11: anyone regardless of age needs to understand how they create value and aggressively point this out unambiguously. And creating value doesn't mean solely working hard or being smart.
Cageface is cautioning to not assume more experience means higher value. Patio11 sorta did the same thing cageface did earlier and keyed in on the "60+ hours" bit. His (patio11) point is that the way to demonstrate value is not to count yourself among the young, or old, or authors of foundational research papers on computer graphics.
I've been in my position a few years now, and I have accumulated domain knowledge that is valuable to my employer. I have no doubts that someone else could come by this body of knowledge, but it would certainly take time an mistakes. If I do not make these differences obvious (measurable and visible), I fail to do so at my own peril.
