Re:Spotify patent would suggest songs based on users' emotions by globular-toast on Monday February 01, 2021 @04:41AM (#25987161)
Sounds like they've got plenty of people to work on the shiny new things but nobody to maintain the boring stuff. It's a shame because there are loads of engineers out there who enjoy maintaining stuff over long periods of time and generally doing the boring stuff that makes customers happy. These engineers are really undervalued in companies like Spotify. I think the success of companies like Microsoft is due in a great deal to valuing engineers who do the boring stuff.
