    The only good LinkedIn post was this Microsoft team leader who bragged about how his employees destroyed themselves to meet deadlines for their product. They spent 80+ hour weeks coding, ruined their marriages, and devoted their lives to making the best thing they could.

    He was the team lead for Internet Explorer. I could code a better version of that in 10 minutes, an otherwise blank HTML stylesheet with a link to download Firefox. The only other reason I’ve opened it is to check if a display issue is Firefox-specific or if the website is broken on every browser, even the shittiest.
