    I never said anything about someone’s usefulness as a person. Their usefulness as a software developer was the topic at hand. Maybe it’s not your profession but a hobby but the point stands.

    I think the very phrase ‘my usefulness’ is dangerous. Are we only worth something as drones?

    And yet it’s drones that do one thing and only one thing their entire lives, never learn and grow.

      Maybe it’s not your profession but a hobby but the point stands.

      To be honest, I’ve hardly ever asked myself how I could best please a potential employer with any of my hobbies. But I recognise that you’re probably taking a different approach.
