There is a cost to the company for non performant front end code though. If the front end preforms poorly users are less likely to use it.

This is of course location sensitive. In London, UK, I have not heard of personal or shared offices anywhere but very small companies.

I fend generally "unglamorous but important tasks" are too difficult for most juniors and requires massive amounts of handholding. Also I find it better to deploy juniors to glamorous tasks wherever possible. They benefit from the

It will be interesting to see how this pans out for developers that stay in the UK, like myself. It's too hard a call it either way. In the current anti-immigration climate I can't see the UK tech industry competing as well as it

I can't see them being anything but proud of that legacy! In fairness they tried with IA-64, but the world didn't want it. And perhaps both HP & Intel were half hearted about it.

that's not quite the cobra effect. For that the number of female developers would need to have been reduced and not code quality.

You can't be expected to exact as the square root of 10 is irrational. Perhaps that says something about the 10x developers.
