Интернациональный юмор
Being the Averagest:
As soon as you conclude that some programmers are noticeably better than others, you've got yourself a primitive rating system. You only need two points (say, Bob and Sue) to make a rating scale with 5 levels: worse than Bob, roughly as good as Bob, better than Bob but worse than Sue, roughly as good as Sue, better than Sue.
Sadly, that's about the state of the art for SDE stack-ranking systems. Even in our high-tech industry, you still get away from the bear by running faster than your friend (i.e., not being ranked worse than Bob). But running faster than your friend doesn't imply you're as running as fast as you can. It's a rating system that only produces bear-evasion tactics, not world-class competition.
Оттуда-же:
Bob realizes there are technologies, data structures, algorithms and techniques that he knows little to nothing about. But that's OK. He doesn't know them because he doesn't need them for his job. Whenever he does need to learn something new, he gets out a book and figures it out.
*затравленно озирается, в панике прячется под стул* За нами следят! Они читают мои мысли!
