Re: Dumbing down of Society
"Companies are being created and managed by people who grew up getting participation trophies and always told how good they were regardless of actual performance."
no argument from me. I'm sure many of these companies are 'Unicorns' and, ahem, "one or two" articles in THIS fine online publication have been rather *scathing* regarding their true value...
worse, though, is (it seems) a lot of the engineers are _ALSO_ "like that". And it's "their turn" now to do things "their way" [explaining Win-10-nic, for example].
so paired programming could ALSO be a pair of IDIOTS circling the drain...
