>People used to be in tech because we loved it. Today, it is all about the money and I hate it. It's Gresham's Law. When most of the people in a field are there to chase the money, the people who really enjoy it and are good at it don't fit in and they're the ones who get chased out. That's why things like Scrum and Agile and open plan offices are popular. If you have a team of 20+ mediocre people, you need to do stupid stuff like that to keep things moving in the right direction. It doesn't matter that 2-3 people with real talent would get a better product out cheaper. If you hire 2-3 great people, then you're dependent on them. If you hire 20 mediocre people, then it doesn't matter when one leaves.
