> Really? How about in industries where it's straight up impossible for the developer to do so? How do people function in those industries? How does cutting edge tech get made in, say, the medical industry? Just because it's impossible to do something in one industry, doesn't mean that it's not beneficial in another where you can. If the programmers could perform brain surgery, using their own software to do a brain surgery would probably be beneficial. But they can't and it wouldn't be safe. Door Dash employees can deliver a pizza to an office block for lunch, so i'm not sure how the first scenario teaches us anything about the second. > What would you say to a blind programmer who is working on autonomous driving vehicles? Again, we are making a comparison against someone where it isn't practically possible to experience it, but this doesn't tell us anything about the benefit if you can experience it.
