Ability to execute is worth more. Ability to build good product is worth more than ability to build good back end.

- chii 10y agoIs not a good product a good back end and a good front end together?
- jwatte 10y agoDepends on the product, and who defines "good." The back end of most big products you use (PayPal, eBay, etc) are probably pretty "bad" from an objective back end engineer's point of view, but they're "good enough" to deliver the product. Meanwhile, problems in the front end are more immediately felt when using the product.
