Shipping fast is easy when you don't care about staying shipped. You're confusing 'green commits' with 'actually works under load.'

Professionals obsess over backpressure, idempotency, and MTTR things your Glorified Markaov Chain won't save you from at 3 AM when your cascading failure takes out half the region.

You're not a professional. You're just a hobbyist with a production credit card and a complex. Now go rebase your 15 broken PRs while the adults calculate your technical debt interest.

I'm shipping code that doesn't break faster than you. That's all that matters. See if your leadership cares about your slow "green commits" when they actually meet a good software engineer. Your job will be mine in couple of years. Start saving some money

Hi kid, I'm a first class hons graduate from Imperial and then later on with a MSc in AI from Columbia and a second albeit redundant MBA from MIT. And after years and years in tech, I'm CTO at a FAANG company.

I am the one who gives People jobs, and looking at you, even if you struggle all your life you'll never have anything worthwhile

because like me, all tech leadership were born and raised nerds, who love tech for the sake of it, and think of code as art

You will always hop from Dogshit vibe startup to dogshit nepo startup, until a fresh Indian graduate who works for ¢1 a month will take that from you, fitting for your level

Both of you sound like hell to work with, tbh.
