A new study says that over 2 million software engineers don't do ANYTHING

[gulabpatel]

Coding itself 90% thinking processing and 10% writing work
And it goes far more on heavy systems
I guess sometimes 99% thinking testing analysing and 1% writing

[swastiksahu]

"Should it be applied everywhere" -- spoken like a true capitalist

[md-ayaz]

No of commits is not metric to judge software engineers. There are other tasks like meeting, gathering requirements, design discussions and mentoring people. Sometimes things take time like researching and learning tech and framwork and then building things. Plus some dont comit often. They commit when they are done.

[RajKumar-mvom]

80% of time is spent debugging and understand if this will work in other unknown edge cases and which might lead to less commit with rarely some changes, but fixes the bug

[shreehari]

Non tech people making research reports about tech people as if they understand core of software engineering

I call this utter bullshit

[tanmaygupta]

Why does only software engineers get targeted why not digital marketers, sales person and all

Edit: not just sales, add accountant finance graphic designer and many more other fields

[mananshah]

The same study also concluded that all of the really top engineers (the ones that performed 5x the capacity of average engineers) were all working remotely.
Please highlight all sides of the argument.

Chill guys....As an engineer let me tell you about me.... I make 1-10 commits in some weeks and 0 commits in some weeks it's because when I am not making commits, I review others code, do testing, do debugging and also learn new

SO, ALL THOSE LAUGHING ENGINEERS ARE CORRECT BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEY STUFF...even I would have laugh too..I also work remotely

[aniruddhajoshi]

Wtf do u expect them to do? Change the entire codebase every month?

[inux]

Buddy, if I get it done in 2 mins because I have practices it for 2 years, you ain't paying me for 2 mins but for that years. And twitter is not running completely fine just let the bubble burst.

[Zura]

Yes please fire the software Engineer, and make the ceo's and shareholders more richer than they already are.

[Goaboyz]

That is because someone from TCS is working throughout the night for them working 15 hours a day for thousand rupees per day rate.

[abhishekahirrao]

man im getting cooked here, working till 9 everyday

[PrasenjeetPal-]

Elon fired 80% of twitter staff... Should this be applied everywhere?....Varun's employees sweating in the corner 😂😅

[smrushaan]

They need to investigate deeper as the engineers could be making cumulative commits or changing vital parts of code as per requirement, the person making this video is sort of useless for that purpose

[Pixcel]

Who said twitter runs fine,
Edit: holy shit I triggered some Elon fans

[DrSaifShaikh]

They say engineers are unemployed but also claim they’re ‘eating too much money.’ Hypocrisy at its peak! The platforms you use, the electricity powering your life, the buildings you live in, the cars you drive, the medical machines that doctors use—ALL made by engineers. And yet, they’re undervalued and blamed. Engineers build the world you depend on, but when it’s time to give credit, they’re forgotten. It’s time to recognize their contribution and stop spreading lies. #RespectEngineers

[montuedge]

Yes, commit history and code change is the way to judge. Wow!!! Isn't it after debugging for days don't they make one line change and fix it. Horrible analysis. Try adding commute hours to work hours then companies will start loving remote.

[Iameath-howz]

Why not ? Its there value they are not unskill labour which this company want. Some one said correctly First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

[hithardhksvln]

Definitely these software engineers are not from India 😅
