I'm really sorry, but if this is what you think, you're very delusional. Try to get out of the HN bubble sometime?
- partisan 11y agoAgreed. You can derive any conclusion out of polling the right group of people. That said, OP did mention Facebook and Google specifically and it likely applies for companies of that variety.
- Avalaxy 11y agoFair point. In that sense he may be totally right.
- sauere 11y agoThis is HackerNews. He is a Frontend developer. He mentioned Google and Apple. So please... There are many "old school" software development companies out there that do excellent work with established technology (ASP.NET Stack, whatever..) and deliver great products. But it's just a other culture.
