A worm on its own is faster than a horse in the mill stone . It's bad mindset to think that all software companies are the same , there are some companies which ship things other than CRUD apps on the web(shocker !!) .

My main gripe is the statement of ask for forgiveness than permission, that mindset does not work on projects like the 737max . Anything of value is built by teams and as such hero worship should be avoided whenever possible. Good work should be rewarded but don't skew the social dynamic to the point of "hero said it so it must be true".

The 737max is not a company but a product and Boeing isn't a startup looking to raise vc money.

No, you're right. A 737max can only affect a few hundred people's lives.

This is why 'build at all costs' has cost us so much. Look at the negative effects this dog eat dog build fast, break things (including people), culture has on society.

Toxic bullshit.
