I'm curious, how does the VP of engineering figure senior developers are created? Out of thin air?
I wonder if we'll see more of this short-term thinking that will eventually create a serious shortage of experienced engineers in the future. I realize no individual executive is under any obligation to ensure the well-being of the industry at large, but if none of them care about it, they are dooming it.
