While I agree I think that's a fatalist perspective. It's on all of us working in tech to push back on that. In the unlikely event that someone with DOGE on their resume comes across my desk I certainly will be.
And if folks are able to clear their mind of ideology, this is an account of someone that was straightforwardly bad at their job. It's rare to get such a confession from an applicant, we should use it!
- mistrial9 1y agozero chance that "all of us working in tech" will push anything.. worse, aggressive opportunists know this very well
- afavour 1y agoAgain, back to that being a fatalist perspective. It won’t work so there’s no point in trying. IMO it’s always worth trying. The opportunists are a minority and they should be ostracized. They’ll always hire each other of course but the reality, as we’re seeing, is that they aren’t actually very good at what they do. For years Musk was seen as an Iron Man genius but by any metric you choose DOGE has been an absolute failure.
