This article starts off with addressing how so-called-10x developers are often just building tech debt into their applications. I was with Tiwari on that. Then he moves on to creating a non-judgmental culture... not sure I agree there. And then... linters? Huh?
I think that the anti-judgment folks are trying to achieve something good, but they're throwing out the baby with the bathwater. We need to make a distinction between judging behaviors and judging people. The former isn't just good, it's fundamental--the only way to improve your behaviors is to judge them. But judging people is generally pointless, at least without some sort of temporal limitation--almost everyone starts at a new job as -0.5x net contribution until they're onboarded and improves from there.

Then he moves on to creating a non-judgmental culture... not sure I agree there. And then... linters? Huh? Thank you. Did anyone read the damn article? It's all over the place -- borderline nonsensical. I suppose it's intended to be a promotion of their company. Color me unconvinced.
