This is a very high school perspective to take on the difference between developers and executives.
I imagine you'd rather live in a world ruled by programmer-kings who are the only people capable of creating value, while all the other peons toil away in the service of their creation with their inferior, bogus skillsets.
- dang 10y agoYou've got an important point here, so it would have been much better to make it substantively and without snark. I say it's an important point because it was a big one for my own growth. I think many programmers (and many HN users) tend to feel that way, and not without reason. What's needed is patient explanation, not oppositional dismissiveness. Unfortunately the latter takes a lot less time.
- dsacco 10y agoFair point, Dan. I'll remember that for next time.
