I didn’t, but I get why. It’s a specious argument — it doesn’t matter if 99% of them are useless. It matters if the 1% that become ubiquitous for whatever reason provide utility that makes the useless ones worth it.

Yeah you can run a company that never provides any time or resources to tinker, but only if you’re okay with innovation never happening again.

Plus, for that other 99%, the developers probably tried out a new framework or language or something. They aren't claiming to "know" something based on watching a YouTube vid. It wasn't wasted time.
