👆 This. In my experience, I’ve seen a lot of developers get upset about “their code” not being used, time wasted, or someone else changing the code after the fact. Who cares? Once you commit that code, it’s no longer your code. It’s the company’s code. Your paycheck will reflect the same amount of money regardless — and if it doesn’t, you may want to find a better employer. 😅
bruh, the scenario you're describing is meant to be "code shipped = bonus pay" not "code not shipped = less pay"
Both of those things are effectively exactly the same though
not really.
One guarantees you X, and you can earn +y, scaleable to (not really) infinity
the other starts you at x and you lose -y until you reach zero (not really, minimum wage)
