    The dude prefers reviewing source code on paper.

    Anyone who writes code knows that is not a practical way to review.

    Maybe in his time he got book smart about some physics/rocket concepts. That’s the least I would expect anyway. But that doesn’t mean he really has any expertise to offer to the product.

      I agree it makes no sense. A fair number of my clients are morons and about 2 or 3 times a year they want a printout of the code.

        He doesn’t do shit. All of that is just him saying buzzwords he learnt from the actual engineers so he’d look smart.
