If you yourself feel like an under appreciated superstar this kind of article will surely resonate with you (it is HN after all). I personally find the premise unlikely, without good process you cannot get a larger group of people to do anything consistently.
- duxup 3y agoI think the idea here is folks get too enamored with / focused on the process and not the content or product result. Not that you don’t need process.
- bart_spoon 3y agoOk but who is actually saying the content/product result isn’t important? Seems like a strawman.
- duxup 3y agoI’ve definitely worked with companies that as Steve described where the process(es) get most of the focus and not the content. If the content is not good, the only tool some managers seem to have is process.

- Sateeshm 3y agoYes. Can't really scale well without good process. And it's flat out unrealistic for a large org to hire only superstars. You're gonna have a ton of open positions for years.
- Sammi 3y ago"Can't really scale well without good process" Tell that to almost all Y Combinator unicorns. They're all famous for internal chaos.
- persolb 3y agoThis seems like a very specific subset of possible companies though. Having a digital product is a cheat mode for scaling with a small team. You can have a 20 person global messaging service. You can’t have a 20 person state post office.
