He actually makes some excellent points around challenging fad-driven-management, open office spaces, dorm culture instead of prioritizing flow, and what I see as a legitimate perspective on TDD's unfortunate tendency to reinforce blindspots. It's just a shame that he also sounds a bit like Hunter Thompson, shooting at cars passing too close to his compound.
For the record, one thing he's absolutely correct about is this idea that being able to handle all aspects and dimensions of a complex project is somehow arrogant and/or anti-social and/or dinosaur-esque.
I mean, I don't know anything about you but people who can competently build impressive shit solo command my respect. Your disbelief that such a thing can be extraordinarily valuable is just projecting a lack of confidence or imagination.
To be clear: not everyone will (or should) go there... but it's your prejudiced rejection of the possibility as gauche that pets me backwards. You are not the first or only generation to have everything all figured out.
