> Which makes the hardest problem in software even harder: what should we build?
You should build what’s personally fun and challenging to you and/or what is useful and solves a problem. Building for any other reason, including and especially the unfettered pursuit of profit, is what turns everything to shit.
Well, there goes all our jobs.
I agree with you, but unfortunately, big boy gotta eat, and that means we have to sit around writing shitty commercial software. I already hate that, I would prefer if it didn't get worse.
