Two reasons, to me: * "Move fast and break things" mentality that made it big is now making it bad * Peter Thiel isn't as much of a genius as he thinks he is

Two reasons, to me:
* "Move fast and break things" mentality that made it big is now making it bad
* Peter Thiel isn't as much of a genius as he thinks he is (although he is pretty smart in some respects, sometimes he's completely wrong, akin to some modern-day Aristotle) and the attitude of the founders of a company creates the culture as it grows
- marco1 12y agoThe first may definitely be true, i.e. their legacy code base may be a heavier burden that some other companies'. Don't know about Peter Thiel, if there's still influence on today's work. Anyway, it's mostly programming, implementation, craftsmanship which seems to be so bad.
