One of the reasons the world is so fucked up is because people have lost respect for expertise. I was on the original Visual Studio team at Microsoft and helped rebuild Xcode from scratch at Apple. I have 30 years worth of experience building low-level software and that experience matters.
If we were talking about cancer treatments and someone said, "Hey, I've been an oncologist for three decades" it would be ridiculous to not at least listen to what what they had to say.
Experience and expertise matters; now more than ever.
