I'm going to make one modification here. Basically what I said above is that I can't see that anything anyone does is more important than writing the code. However, let me amend that -- the only thing that I can see as being more important than writing the code is TEACHING other people in your company the stuff you know. I really thing that the ideal software company would be completely non-heirarchical, a totally flat structure where absolutely everyone's first job is to write code. Sure, that's total idealistic nonsense, but that's why I post these things on slashdot instead of getting myself fired by talking about them at work.
