What amazed in those kind of post, is that people who actually work in the industry are not bother by the actual lack of evidence in those kind of claim. I respect the opinion of Ben Lakey and Steve Jobs but they are opinions not laws.

I mean seriously, regardless of the job or the level of awesomness of someone, who likes to work with incompetent collegues ?????

They are thousands of bad developpers out there ? Seriously ? How do you judge ?? How do you know ??

Personally I know tons of developpers who works on awesome things at home but do shit at work 365 days a year. Simply because that is what is required of them. Careful here, I am not saying that, this is the case for everyone and that I have explained everything. I'm just saying that it will be nice if in our industry we stopped putting so much ego in everything we are doing. If you are a A, A+, A++, S++X37 developper good for you, truly.

From my little experience ( ~= 5 years ) there is not much state of the art project going on in the industry. Most project sucks from a technical point of view.

Also from my little experience, recruitment is fucking hard. Ask Google.

You'll notice that I didn't talk about managment and the value that companies put (or don't put) in IT ...
