We have a very successful company that has been running 30 years, with developers across 6 countries. We just make sure we hire developers who know that theyre here to do a job, on our terms, for which they will get paid, and its our way or the highway. If they dont like it, they dont have to stay. However, through doing this we have maintained a standard that our competitors fail at, partly because they spend their time tiptoeing around staff and their comforts and preferences.

and you happened to have created an account in hackernews just 3 months ago after 30 years in business just to hunt AI-sceptics?

Have you ever hired anyone for their expertise, so they tell you how to do things, and not the other way around? Or do you only hire people who aren't experts?

I don't doubt you have a functioning business, but I also wouldn't be surprised if you get overtaken some day.

Wow, you are really projecting the image a wonderful person to work for.

I don't doubt you are successful, but the mentality and value hierarchy you seem to express here is something I never want to have anything to do with.
