They were probably also opposed to some other things that failed. But then hindsight is 20/20.

- sanderjd 1y agoYes, but honestly, I was this way at the beginning of my career, and I can't think of any examples of things I was right about. My most successful "this is doomed to fail" grouchiness was social media games (like Farmville). But I just can't think of any examples in the dev tooling space.
- mgraczyk 1y agoBeing opposed to things that fail is not important. You can rightly avoid new things 99% of the time, but if you miss the 1% of things that matter, you get left behind. On the other hand if you adopt the latest thing 100% of the time and 99% of those things are a waste, you will probably be fine.
