What do managers actually do?

This is a serious question, what are they doing all day? It seems all they do is attend meetings and issue nonsensical edicts, but never actually produce anything of real value, other than cracking a whip. Sure, they'll write mid-years and they... — read more

D-mbing down WF tech

Amazing to me how we are d-mbing down code into yaml so it can be handled and shipped abroad. Amazed at how bad these decisions are made so they can get rid of experience and talent. The sinking ship gets lower and lower.
