Some of us who were there at the time didn&#x27;t appreciate his contributions, to be honest. Was there anything he was correct about in the long term?<p>(I&#x27;m not asking rhetorically, I&#x27;m genuinely curious. I read &quot;Decline of the American Programmer&quot; at the time it came out, thought it was total rubbish, and didn&#x27;t bother to read anything else he wrote. Did I miss out?)
