“Mediocrity + two years of tech experience = six figures. Kids who can code and are two years out of school, who are mediocre, are making $100,000-plus in the market. What’s worse is that they believe they’re worth it. If you can code, yay for you. But you have no real hard skills or management ability. Not recognizing that you’re overpaid means you won’t have the funds to avoid your parents’ basement when shit gets real”.

You need to look no further than the team behind Apple Maps, a genuinely mediocre piece of software.

Just think, there is a product manager somewhere inside Apple that thought it was a good idea to allow users to reset the POI pin using only a satellite map. Where in the sea of white clouds should I drop the pin?

Yet some 23-year-old with two years experience and a $100,000 comp package coded this turd and another twenty-something so-called manager signed off on it. And without a Steve Jobs to fire these people, they’re all still working in Cupertino.

Only 1 example of Apple’s nascent stupidity in hiring. Need another?

A thief with just a six digit unlock code can use settings on your iOS device to change your AppleID password without knowing your current password or being asked for anything other than that 6 digits unlock code. Then another genius designed the Apple Account Recovery Tool that lets the legitimate user wait 15 to 30 days to access their own account.

Apple doesn’t listen and doesn’t care. As their stock sheds tens of billions of dollars in value in 6 months.
