Have you ever used a government website?
With the exception on gov.uk, they are all god-awful. I suspect lack of talent within the government is one major reason.
- beaconstudios 8y agoI'd argue it's more lack of organisational innovation. You can be incredibly talented but if your organisation doesn't sign off on anything innovative then you'll be stuck writing menial code. Governments are some of the most change-resistant organisations around, ignoring legally mandated changes.
