IMO the most profound quote in the interview: “Our practices tend to reinforce a natural selection bias — those who are interested in working as a team to deliver a great product versus those whose primary motivation is publishing,” says Federighi.
my favorite quote:
"Writing software in languages like Python or Ruby often seduces you into being ignorant of what’s going on under the hood because it’s just so easy to do pretty complex things, but languages like Go and C don’t hide that."
