What’s the diff between a bad dev and a dev that doesn’t care? Either way, whether ist lack of skill or care, a bad dev is a bad dev at the end of the day.

I can be good at a trade, but if I’m working for a shit company with shit pay and shit treatment, they’re not going to get my best work.

You get out what you put in, that’s something employers don’t realise.

Nah they realize but all the laws are set to fuck us over not them. They just don’t care.

The difference is whether the fault for the leak of your personal data rests with the worker who was incompetent, or the employer who didn’t pay for proper secure software.

I say fault lies not with only one, but both.

Depends on the case TBH. If devs barely have time and are constantly crunching due to mismanagement, or are extremely disengaged due to mismanagement, I wouldn’t fault them.

Usually it’s the lacking processes, though. There are ways to make sure this doesn’t happen, and it doesn’t depend on the individual, but always the organization.

A good dev would unionize their workplace and push back. A dev who doesn’t care and just clocks on bad work because their boss sucks is not a good dev. Fight back.

Yeah sure, because everyone has the skills, time, energy and safety required to unionize a shitty workplace they only go to to be able to pay their rent.
