gee, I wonder why the guy with an enormous vested interest in pushing this narrative would say that?

in general, the people saying this sort of thing are not / have never been engineers and thus have no clue what the job _actually_ involves. seems to be the case here with this person.

Don't you think software engineers have a vested interest in their jobs being relevant, just with less information?

virtually everyone has a vested interest in their jobs being relevant

> just with less information

i'm not sure how someone who has no relevant background / experience could possibly have more information on what it entails than folks _actively holding the job_ (and they're not the ones making outlandish claims)

Good counter-points!

That being said, I suspect Dario has very skilled engineers advising him.
