But why can't tech people be the top management? Google has never had a suit as CEO. Don't think their VPs are suits either. But it's true for most of the business world.
Let me put this another way: are hackers inherently not suitable for top-management jobs, and there will always be suits managing them?

- gregbair 15y agoThe difference is, hackers aren't inherently not suitable, but they're not inherently suitable either. A good CEO can be a good CEO everywhere, but a good hacker isn't necessarily a good CEO anywhere.
