I'm not down with the "bus driver" metaphor, but the bit about a vocal and active minority steering the direction of the technology for the rest of us certainly rings true. I think a read an article on HN about exactly this, but in the terms of React and Wordpress.
- segmondy 4y agoWhat is wrong with bus drivers?
- cmiles74 4y agoNothing is wrong with bus drivers! :-) I'm not sure comparing software developers to bus drivers is a metaphor that gets us very far... In fact, why some bus drivers might want to really be flying fighter jets also had me scratching my head.
- namaria 4y agoMore like bus drivers wanting to become heavy machinery operators...
- fuzzfactor 4y agoKind of like the loads of everyday bus drivers safely carrying many more users around, compared to the uncommon fighter pilot doing risky things very few users will need to do.
