I love these threads. Everyone will chime in about how they know better how to run the company, with suggestions on the processes that they don't know and so on. Meanwhile the story is "business is #1 and booming". Elegant software stacks aren't always the most important part of the business.

Exactly. ASML made a profit of about $2,050,000,000,- in 2023. I doubt they are very interested in complaints about how some random dude expected more time to run his tests.

I think they are pretty serious about high quality software development. There are often questions and concerns from (tech/non-tech) management about build times, compute costs, software product’s performance etc. PS:I work at ASML.

Exactly, I guess that's because HN has quite software-heavy crowd. Most of them like to see software changing the world.

No, most of them want to make a ton of money. They're hanging out virtue signaling their cleverness on a forum owned by a Silicon Valley startup incubator for a reason.

You said it better than I could have :)
