What does finding untrivial solutions have to do with passion?
- dmitripopov 9y agoTake two programmeers, a passionate one and non-passionate about his job and give them the same complex task that can not be solved without invention. I did this experiment a dozen of times over my subordinates and non-passionate ones always fail. 100%. So I do not hire people that just do their job any more.
- itamarst 9y agoThere's a difference between caring about your job and being passionate. I recommend reading Avdi Grimm's http://www.virtuouscode.com/2014/02/10/the-passion-gospel/ http://www.virtuouscode.com/2014/02/10/the-passion-gospel/, it's really good.
