re: #350 Dopamine Fish

I’m well aware of that. Elon seems to labor under the misapprehension that in software, anyone can do anything in any arbitrarily determined timeframe just by throwing enough bodies at it. Spoilers: The Law of Diminishing Returns bites especially hard in software development. There are so many bottlenecks to parallel development, especially if everyone is working on one feature in one specific area, that “more manpower” simply means you’re paying people to do nothing but twiddle their thumbs and wait for blockers to be cleared.

Nothing says leadership than stating: “You have one week to deliver or you’re fired.”
