That’s like saying: “Works for Microsoft. Not a real developer.”

No. It is unfair to everyone to take someone who can’t do the job.

Totally situational. Good question to be thinking about though.

Welcome to corporate America. No one cares, just don’t be left holding the bag. As the new guy you’re the default bag holder.

They’ve spent 20 years working with idiot management what do you expect. That said I wish the ones I worked with were risk averse and stopped launching kamikaze projects to nowhere.

Meh A2z or whatever they’re called doesn’t really care about the OPM. I’d fund him just for entertainment factor. The world needs more spirituality in its valuations. And they’ll just dump their shares on a bigger fool like SoftBank.

Incentivize engineers instead of treating them code monkey peasants and they will work hard and make you a lot of money. Create useless management layers and make them play politics to advance and you get FAANG culture.

People who have this kind of ultra BS ability definitely don’t follow that process. For them it’s more instinctual. And probably not learnable. For the rest of us … well if you can’t think clearly maybe you need to study basic logic.
