Impotent leaders were picked because we, the grassroots, have too many litmus tests. Purity tests over of priorities.

What?? 30 years ago the person said something that everyone was saying 30 years ago?? Off with their head!

We need to prioritize winning over purity.

I've been a Stack Overflow employee for 12+ years.

The project of moving all apps out of the datacenters took about 2 years and involved dozens of people. Great team effort! (now we have new and even more exciting projects to work on)
