>> I wouldn't be surprised if half of Kickstarter's engineers pumped out fewer than 3 PRs a week.
Ah yes. That always super meaningful metric of high performance - number of PRs. Doesn't matter what it is, if you can't solve it and push some code in less than two days, it's a clear indicator you're a terrible engineer.
I'm not saying that is the only barometer I would use if I were measuring performance but again, I'd be surprised if you told me that an average Kickstarter now was anywhere close to being as productive (whatever metric you'd like to use) before their unionization.
