My hottest of hot takes: the only people who should run companies that make things are people who deeply give a fuck about those things. Only people who love games and love playing games should run companies that make games. Doesn’t matter if it’s cheeseburgers or software.

Hell, just requiring them to know about the industry would be a huge step up. The old expression about a boss who wants 9 women to have a baby in 1 month comes to mind.

@Uair @Daojoan

Know about the industry?

I used to work at an international airport.

The following is a conversation a work colleague told me about.

Very Senior Manager At The Airport: "Where does Qatar Airlines fly from?'

Colleague: "Qatar."

Manager: "Yes, that's their name. But what country do they fly from?"

Colleague: "Qatar."

Manager: "Yes, but what country do they fly from?"

Colleague: "Qatar."

Manager: "Yes, I know the airline's name, but what country do they fly from?"
