Having spent 20 years writing code, I have no idea how to measure “performance”.
Is it “lines of code written”?
Is it “technical debt addressed”?
Is it a measure of how many engineers grew in those roles?
Does it measure how many engineers burned out after a year?
Does it measure projects with reasonable starting estimates?
Does it focus only on the products that sold well, or does it also include games that bombed?
- norwalkbear 4y agoWhen it's industry specific it's easier to measure. Game engines are very specialized beasts that have a very high degree of math, physics, and algos for shortcuts. Then getting it working on very specific hardware.
- magicalist 4y ago> easier to measure Still forgot to mention how it's measured? And presumably if these were studies they were published?
