I don’t think that’s fair at all; he’s pointing out a critical flaw — the trust being given out today is given blindly; he’s just pointing out how trivially anyone can participate in that abuse, and with such a low barrier to entry, we shou

It is very rare that we actually work on something truly novel, and it’s even rarer that the majority of the task/project is novel. It’s really not that hard to identify something “reasonable” for most tasks, once you’ve broken it do

I think it has more to do with the lack of metrics to be defined — and thus tracked. It’s easy enough to track features, and even code quality (by # of bug reports); you can track documentation by “coverage” — each feature has some kind of
