"My experience with typical rockstar developers has been similar to yours, they work poorly with others, communicate poorly, and often write inscrutable code" Based on that, you're experience is with people who aren't rockstars, but claim they are.
I worked with a guy who shaved 3 months off a year long project. This guy could sit down and just code.
Good, clean code the he documented. I learned a shit load, and not just about the language, but all the ancillary bits as well. like comments , documenting, and how to get clarification from users and deal with stakeholders.
Programming is a lot more than just coding. the sooner more people realize that the sooner we can move forward with actual computer engineering.
Just so you know, every company have worked with that goes on about OO and no one 'really does' OO were places where people bowed to Booch and didn't do any real thinking about their architecture.
I know OO, but I also no that with OO you can start to gather to much overhead; which can be important with certain kinds of work. Such as moving data byte by byte with a tiny footprint, where time is critical. When I say time i'm talking milliseconds.
13 levels of indirection might be fine for a banking teller app, not so much for programming a robot.
Start up willing to take the risk of 1 person building and controlling the code and possible the direction of the company? sure. I wouldn't but like I said weigh the risks. A high paid specialist? absolutely. A salary employee and an entrenched company to routing development ? absolutely not.
My rule is: You can act like a prima donna, but you damn well better be a prima donna.
No, it has everything to do with it. The technology is designed to be open and shared. If someone who buys the tool can't be bothered to learn it then it is their own damn fault.
You don't blame the pedestrian becasue the drive couldn't be bothered to learn how to break.
no. They have a ton of data vetted by international groups. This isn't 'Our CIA says 'x' so all you you in the international community must be wrong..whats that, you want to see the evidence? well mummble mummbly bomb.
Wasn't toothless. The people by and large said 'woah', lets talk about this one and he did that. Like the previous president should have done, and hopefully the next one will do.
It is funny watching Pub make up reason not to do this one they fly directly into the face of what they said for Iraq.
1) Not the office of the presidency. - Also as soon as it turned out it was a few people acting on their own in order to prioritize based on an influx of a political NFP applications. JSYN, it turns out they do this when ever their is any sudden infulx of a type of political NFP applications. It's actually a good use of resources. So, no real scandal. Naturally Fox immediately told every one the truth once they found out about it..oh wait.
2) SA privacy is still on going. And it's been going on far longer than Obama, or Bush even. That said, over 100,000,000 legal searches and 22,000 searches that range from questionable to outright illegal. SO I tiny percentage. Oh, and the NSA tells the court of any misuses, and they take disciplinary actions. Hmm.
3) Hunt? yeah, a warrant issued, some police action. For someone who broke the law.
4) Obamacare - I wish we could smack people upside the head that talk about it and haven't read it. Anyways, ultimately it will be a savings. Not the healthcare plan I want, but a lot better the what we have now.
He isn't lucky, we just have a bunch of people making shit up and over blowing everything and it doesn't pan out.

so you can tell VCs you have a rockstar.
guh.
everyone knwo what they mean:
Guru,(80s)
Then prima donna,(early 90s)
Then [insert made up name] (97-2000)
now it's rockstar.
Next week it will be 'earwig' or some other nonsense.
If that's not it, then why are you a douche bag?
heh.

Dr. "What do you mean you never bothered to back up? Every always needs to back up!"
Camera Zooms in on old man... It's Linus.
you can repeat all you want, that doesn't make you right.
and you're not.
"NSA has been poisoning the well for our entire society."
hyperbole.
"They, not Al Qaeda, not Iran, not China, pose the most existential threat to American freedom and the ability of my kids to grow up in peace"
false.
Plus the VAST MAJORITY of their work has been legal.
They haven't practice any Tyranny. sheesh.
" it's common practice to never use unexplainable magic numbers in cryptography standards"
you don't need those last three words.
personal save points and roll back as needed!
Nothing like that feature, but nice try at getting your hate boner up.
About Fucking Time.
he only studied herpetology until he croaked.
But they didn't apply the law. Probably becasue they aren't versed with unlicensed radio spectrum laws.
" that not only did someone break the law, but also that you were harmed by it in some way."
nope. The don't have to break the law.
No, it has everything to do with it.

Traditionally, if access require special tools it isn't considered readily available.
In this case it would mean not needing a password to access.

Actually, the percentage of illegal 'shit' the NSA does is turning out to be very tiny overall. Less than 1%
It should be stopped, but let's not go on like that's all they do.
You first.
no. They have a ton of data vetted by international groups.
This isn't 'Our CIA says 'x' so all you you in the international community must be wrong..whats that, you want to see the evidence? well mummble mummbly bomb.

except we have the orders, we have the training, we have them donning masks.
Other than those facts you might have something!
You aren't.
