starters - people you hire to act as programmers because you need headcount.
finishers - actual programmers.
guards - programmers that you should pay really well but you don't because you have a non-technical project manager and you think it's the same.
- shanghaiaway 8y agoGuards sound like supervisors. Starters are juniors. Finishers are senior.
- haskellandchill 8y agoThis is very accurate. I was thinking I had value as a starter but you have put me in my place!
- GoToRO 8y agoI was referring to the definition given in the article just to be clear.
- fritzy 8y agoI, the OP, am a starter myself. I was focused on finishers because they're often undervalued.
- GoToRO 8y agoWe all are starters in some way. The thing that helped me was to realize it and change my ways. Also it helps if starters do not run the show.
