- rightbyte 2mo agoBlacksmiths were petite bourgeois. We are not.
- Invictus0 2mo agoidk what the point of a 5 word argument is but I'm going to assume you're talking about blacksmiths being business owners? most SWEs have equity as part of their compensation
- rightbyte 2mo agoYes something like that. Devs are in the position of apprentices and helper boys in the context of blacksmiths. Equity is mostly not handed out in a way that grants power but the opposite to tie the dev to the workplace. Some lottery tickets are winners though.
