> It perpetuates the myth that there's something really special about Silicon Valley engineers In my [disillusioned] experience, this holds true: Silicon Valley engineers are very good for building throwaway MVPs that they won't have to maintain more than 3 years. I've been very disillusioned by the quality of the software written by Silicon Valley companies, but in hindsight it makes sense: "Run fast break things" development culture resonates with the "raise VC money every 18 months" business culture, and then look for an exit in 5 years tops. There is no incentive in Dev or Business to really develop good software.
