Your last paragragh describes a leader...
Until dressage involves a backflip landing in the splits, they have a long way to go
Agreed, those arent high level manager decisions, but they aren't intern decisions either. They'll be made by a mid level manager or team lead.
The higher up the chain, the less technical and more general the decisions get, but they do still need to have some level of technical understanding, or the direction they point you in could be completely detached from reality.
The direction a company should go in is a technical decision. It has to come from a leader of some kind, and if that leader is non technical or disconnected from the employees, that's how you get poor decisions.
All your examples involve teams, and teams don't typically happen without some form of leadership from someone. An expert without leadership skills will be far less effective at building a team around them than someone with the expertise and the leadership skills.
The expert your describing in your last paragragh IS a leader. If they aren't being compensated as such, thats just them being exploited, and they need to advocate for more appropriate compensation.
At the end of the day, a single person can only do so much work. All the experience in the world doesn't change that there is only 24hrs in a day.
A good leader can enable a team of people to work together achieving more than the sum of their individual contributions.
Leaders are force multiplier, and good ones should be compensated as such.
Sadly, we also over compensate the shitty leaders far too often as well :/
Ideally you want a balance of both, pure people skills ends with poor technical decisions, pure technical ends with inability to get the other employees on board.
Its a bit early to make the call that Ladybird will be successful. They have made a lot of noise sure, but they are a small team, tackling a huge project, and they have just had 2 language changes in the last few months.
The deck is well and truely stacked against them. Maybe they pull it off, maybe not, but its very early to make the call IMO.
Servo is looking surprisingly good, but still has major rendering issues. At least it looks like a browser now.
Developers can just be hired directly, and the Firefox codebase is open source.
Only brand requires partnering with mozilla, and what does the other partner gain from the Mozilla brand? They don't even have much brand recognition anymore anyway.
Congrats to everyone who took part, and thank you to everyone who contributed here, in the solutions and visualization threads.
If anyone knows of a similar event that runs during the year, please do reach out, I would be happy to run more events like this.
Happy new year!
Every year, I grab my camera and head out to try take a photo of a firework. Every year I get a blurry mess of poorly exposed photos. This is the best one I got this year.
