Who can respect a vendor that assigns engineers to work on the animated poop icon instead of basic security?

- vhost- 9y agocontrary to what you may believe, some people need to work on content and should not be touching security. it's absurd to expect apple to fire all their non-security related staff and replace them with a whole organization of engineers that only work on basic security. I do agree that apple has had a ton of problems in this area and needs to work on it, but this example is very played out and boring.
- EpicEng 9y agoYes because I'm sure those same people are also able to work on security.
- gaius 9y agoSomeone made the decision, this year we will hire X number of security engineers and Y number of poop animators. Ultimately that guy is Tim Cook.

- daveFNbuck 9y agoYou can't just hire arbitrary numbers of security engineers. These positions are difficult to fill. There's a good chance that Tim Cook wanted to hire more security engineers than was possible.
