What does my boss actually know about development?
- bryanrasmussen 10y agothatwebdude is always telling him it doesn't work like that! grrr.
- throwaway2016a 10y agoUnless your a VP/CTO/Director or at a very small company where you got hired as a first developer I sure hope your boss knows development. At least a little. At some point in the org chart there should be a buffer between tech and non-tech (the VP, CTO, manager). It's not unheard of at super large companies for the CTO (for example) to be non-technical but I think those companies are making a mistake. That role should be filled with someone who understands both sides. (having a CTO that is ONLY technical is also a mistake) With that said, re the article. That does't have to be Giulliani. It could be someone working under his direction. It's just an extra layer of bureaucracy.
