You're arguing against a strawman. This
>software is ultimately about people.
does not contradict this
>more people need to care about the quality of the final output than whether or not the guy who wrote it is "a nice fellow".
GP is very clearly saying that software has to be written to satisfy customers. It is the process and the quality of outcome they have a problem with, not the focus.
- romanhn 5y agoThe word solitary was used more than once, so I don't think it's a strawman. My point is the quality of the final output is going to be suspect if you take the "leave me alone and let me code" approach.
- BlargMcLarg 5y agoFrom the original comment alone one can't deduce it was about zero communication without some serious assumptions. Only a difference in communication structure. That this invokes the kneejerk response of "well you need to communicate to make products" is arguably a bigger testament of what is wrong with tech. Including the incessant need to label everything with only the smallest details.
