I am in no way saying "the idea guy" is doing 80% of the work, that's probably less than 10% Put another way -- genuine question to which I have only a guess: who does more coding during an average day? A junior developer or a senior developer? Broadly I'd posit the junior developers do a lot more coding, and the more senior you get the more important "English" becomes over any programming language. Maybe I'm in an aberrant bubble. But I doubt it. > This is why people who actually have skills to build things are made to sign NDAs and Non-competes when hired or before being pitched projects. So what I'm getting at is, my version would be: "this is why senior developers code less than junior developers"
