The context that they think that shipping is simple. Shipping (what you need all those annoying peons for) is really terribly difficult, and has a lot of moving parts that designers often fail to take into account, until the deployment people lock them into a restroom stall, and refuse to let them out, unless they listen.

That's common with newer engineers (and now, non-engineers). I believe that Mr. Dunning, and Mr. Kruger had something to say about it.

I also spent most of my career at hardware-oriented companies, and shipping hardware is orders of magnitude more difficult than shipping software.

Thank you. You spent some time at Apple, no? There is that “real artists ship” or “great artists steal”, but I wonder what he’d say now. Just fun to think about.

Not as an employee, but I've been an Apple developer since '86. Had fairly intimate relationships with them, at various points in my career.
