But it is written there, and GP was quite specific:

>the same kind of engineer, who throughout my career have constantly bitched and moaned about team meetings, agile ceremonies, issue trackers, backlogs, slack, emails, design reviews, and anything else that disrupted the hours of coding "flow state" they claimed as their most essential and sacred activity

Seems pretty clear to me.

I doubt the GP has gone back through their career and checked on each person who thought there were too many meetings have now all made the switched they're being accused of, though.

Why does that matter?

Because a claim was made about a group of people.

Exactly. Does it matter if one member of that class does not follow the trend?

No, but no-one said that. It's far more likely that this "group" of people doesn't even exist, and it's yet another case of treating "strangers on the internet" or "other people" as one person and being upset when that "person" is being inconsistent.

"I doubt the GP has gone back through their career and checked on each person who thought there were too many meetings have now all made the switched they're being accused of, though."

Anyway, I'm stopping this now as it's not a constructive conversation anymore. Let's agree to disagree.
