Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

I’m sorry, do you trust junior engineers blindly?

as a starting position, fucking YES. you know why I hired that person? because I believe they can do the job and grow in it. you know what happens if they make a mistake? I give them all the goddamn backup they need to handle it and grow.

"this is why code review is so important" jfc. you're one of those "I've worked here for 4 years and I'm a senior" types, aren't you

So you don't do code review? Something that's pretty much industry standard?

What on earth do you work on where it's inconsequential to trust someone new to the industry blindly?

If I could trust someone anything remotely close to "blindly", they absolutely would not have been hired as a junior.

I, for one, am not in the industry and can’t figure out why people are coming at you with guns blazing. 🙄
