Right, but the vast majority of tech workers by definition must be in the bottom 95% of workers.

I only asked for a mere 6 examples of developer career-lotto winners to infer your ideas were plausible... You have provided 0, and instead of acknowledging real issues... you present a straw-man argument as a poor substitute. In time, you will learn how the corporate world is structured. lol =)

  Why do your ‘asks’ matter? You don’t have any rank or authority over other HN users… so they are free to ignore any ‘asks’ presented… and write about what they think is relevant.

    This is not about me, not about forums, and again off topic... It is about your conduct making unsubstantiated claims orthogonal to observable facts. Then (still) trying to change the subject when asked for proof. It is how we both learn if observations are erroneous, and someone is blinded by their idealism. How about 3 examples, that would be twice as easy right... lol... In time... you may understand kid. Best of luck =3

      So then why do any of your opinions matter? How are you going to convince me or any other passing reader that this isn’t just random nonsense? I can’t even decipher half of the comment so I’m not sure if you understood my previous question…

        It only matters to people that discover fictional vertical movement in a traditionally uninformed exploited role. The evidence often seems anecdotal, but a pretense of a meritocracy often drives the naive to act irrationally. One may find a dismissive attitude is ineffective with data-driven decision makers. Inferring folks experiencing this phenomena are "nonsense" is just disrespectful. =P https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Sp-VFBbjpE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Sp-VFBbjpE

        This doesn’t answer any of the previous three questions?

        "so they are free to ignore any ‘asks’ presented" Being hypocritical on top of flippantly disrespectful does not lend credibility to your assertions about detractors. Have a nice day =3

        Hypocritical about…what? You need to actually write down the argument, if there is one…

        Therefore…? Just linking a troll video with no explanation is pretty bizarre.
