Ya I think it's prob driven by stupid salary type thinking. It's better to have people work on projects organized in a way that they can do what they're good at and pay them for their time in Bitcoin so they are not tied down or slowed down by heaps of other stuff.. *someone must keep the full stack in their brain though to be able to organize these efforts.

I look forward to the return of contracting.. silicon valley killed it in favor of exploitative practices.

i've got some big tasks ahead of me and we have this cute ukrainian PM on our case but it's me and my apprentice and honestly we have like maybe 8 tasks to do in total and we really don't need her

but it is exemplary of the mentality of tech in general... throwing a thousand darts in the general direction of the dartboard is gonna get at least one bulls eye, probably, but that's a hella expensive bullseye

better to just throw one at a time and focus and your dart thrower will be hitting the bulls-eye every other time consistently

Ya, the 'traditional' structure most companies seem to gravitate towards has PMs (product, AND project) in a role they are unsuited for and un-supported by a very needed full-stacker. Usually leads to a mess and disgruntled devs. Better to make tech decisions where PM is only one of the inputs, and other inputs include making good decisions on trajectory of the software itself and other factors.
