The reality is that it’s just the way life/“the game” is. I think it’s good to know about such things, it’s still very much up to the individual to use it/not get fired etc. Unless someone lives alone on a farm, they’ll likely need to know how to handle such things at some point (or be very lucky, or possibly suffer).
It's a post about getting your software recognized and used. For that, you actually need to get other people on board, yes. If you don't care about that, why are you even working in software development? It sounds tedious to just build things nobody cares about.
