It’s faux/facetious hostility. And it’s I response to a naive/offensive/belittling comment.
I’ve not worked in a company as big as Uber, but just in mid sized companies with also midsized markets and there is never an end to the work that needs done. I don’t see why it’s hard to believe it takes a lot of hands to build something like Uber.
And I think you’re wrong that you could have built Uber/Twitter/facebook even with what you k ow after the fact. You could have built a toy simulacrum, but put it before millions of users and it’d fall apart, and not just from scale, but missing features; all the different OSs, regional controls, payment controls, mapping, pricing models, etc.
If there was a spec for one of these companies it’d be thousands of thousands of pages long and most of it you don’t know about; no single person could.
So a little faux hostility seems warranted.
