> a company needs people to write code Most of these companies would only need 1/2 - 1/4 as many "coders" if they'd get rid of their Not Invented Here syndrome and let the coders dictate how the product functions (technically). So many times I've had to build products that are arbitrarily designed by non-technical folks who don't realize that dictating their preferences, instead of flowing with the existing tech, quadruples the implementation time. That's just my rant of the week on stubborn folks who think their company is a snowflake that requires a bespoke software solution.
