No, he is not. He is at best average.
A while back Joel published an article in Inc, about his experience of run and gun with stackoverflow. He was surprised how well it went. In fact it merely appeared to have gone smoothly. I'm guessing more subtle long term problems will continue to appear as time goes on.
And yet still, I think stackoverflow is much much better then experts exchange.
- kaens 17y agoNo, he is not. He is at best average. I agree, but he is perceived as being some elite coder by a large portion of pretty fresh web-devs, probably mostly because of the prevalence of his blog, and the readers lack of technical skill/knowledge. I know that I thought that he must have known what he was talking about a while ago. That is, before I knew what I was talking about.
