Yegor Denisov-Blanch

Yegor Denisov-Blanch is a scientist at Stanford University known for his research in computer science and software engineering. Recently, he gained attention for his commentary on a study revealing that approximately 9.5% of software engineers are underperforming in their roles, which he refers to as 'Geisteringenieure' or 'ghost engineers.' He argues that these individuals place an unfair burden on their teams and waste valuable resources, potentially hindering overall progress in the field.
