if you disagree with that, i don't even know how to respond.
for what it's worth, i never considered myself a very good developer. i was not capable of consistently producing good work. that's part of the reason i co-founded a startup and do a lot more than development now.
i don't see how this is so shocking for me to suggest. most people aren't that great at things.
- UK-AL 12y agoI believe your developer does not exist. I've never met a developer consistently good at everything in development. Development is so vast. You can be doing embedded systems, mainframes, aircraft software, or web software.
- rifung 12y agoI disagree with that, but I don't think that's the point. The problem is that as far as I can tell you're commenting with your own definition of what a good developer is while everyone else appears to to be using a different definition, or at the very least the person you were responding to was. It was shocking because it was rude and uncalled for.
