Another week, another cliched rant against "leadership" that throws out all the usual tropes. You know, it would be much more worth reading for someone to write about great leadership and acknowledge it exists and in fact isn't all that uncommon, call out great leaders, and try and understand what makes them great.
Any shlub can rant about "muh bad management", annoying meetings, the Peter Principle, "terrible middle management", it's become so frequent in comments on Hackernews that my eyes automatically start rolling as soon as I read the same tired old crap.
Does gibbering out the same old criticisms make anything better or just perpetuate the myth that all managers are somehow shitty and horrible people or somehow never wrote a line of code in their lives?
What does the author intend by writing out this sort of sophormoric rant? Is it just for the clicks? To try and big up their own profile? I suggest doing something better with their time that would actually make the world a slightly better place.
