I'd argue that this is less true for the specific field in question (computer science). Most companies looking to hire a developer aren't looking for a jack-of-all-trades hacker, they're looking for someone with a specific s

You could ask the same question about many government contractors. I would dispute calling what they've done "nothing," though. Building a facility of that size and complexity is obviously a non-trivial task, especially when
