> here we have a handful of _startups_ that confess there's isn't enough work to keep everyone in the nimble team up on toes for even forty hours a week

I don't think they said anything of the sort. There's no claim they don't have enough work for 40 hours; I'm sure like most of us there is no end to the work, and it can and will consume all the time we're willing to give it.

They're just not willing to give it as much. It's possible that will put them at a disadvantage to their competitors. It's also possible that they may be sufficiently more creative to overcome that disadvantage.

Yeah, but negative vote is a perfect example of how stupid this community has become. Not even able to digest even the slightest counter-thinking, and the recoil is never short of abusive.

Look at the moron below who calls "up on toes" as corporate slang. NO. It's not a corporate slang, rather a pursuit of a start_up to beat the rest.

Hopeless! This site used to be quality. Now it's full of sheep with one-track mind. My last note here. Go ahead vote it down, enjoy your dumb echo-chamber and live through your satisfaction.

Bye.
