Yeah, where is all the hate coming from? Writing software is difficult, challenging and, at some level, fun.

- bluefirebrand 1y agoWriting software underneath MBAs who are clueless about engineering, driven by sales and marketing teams who are clueless about engineering, constantly "sprinting" to get stuff out the door... There's a lot of stuff in the industry to suck any joy out of writing software
- computerdork 1y agoTrue, all the crap that we have to deal with does make you question why you're doing it - thought of another one, often, you're working on some very small piece of a feature you don't care about, working for months on end. Still, for me, at some level always enjoy the act of building something that needs to function in the demanding environment of the digital world (especially, high-volume applications). Yeah, it requires you to use your experience and training to solve difficult problems and produce a real result. For me at least, this typically enough to keep me going:)
