What I find issue with (and same goes for programming specific subs / communities) is that people have seemingly zero understanding of how a business runs and how strongly that affects product development, project management, etc. It’s like everyone is a junior dev and does nothing but complain about management, sales, etc. I get that people have likely had bad managers or PMs but it’s as if they don’t even understand their function and it creates really bad takes on larger industry stories. I guess beware the comments on places like HN because it is a bit of an echo chamber
I’m conflicted on if I want to upvote this because I like HN or downvote it because I don’t want more people posting worse content there
The thing I love about HN is that it’s perfectly acceptable to browse at work since I would classify it as “industry news”
