Programmers who can add functionality, without making the codebase unnecessarily complicated, are *incredibly* valuable. If someone has properly absorbed this aesthetic and knows how to do it, I would hire that person on the spot regardless of perceived lack of other skillsets.

We’re excited to share that a prototype version of OpenXR will be available for developers in an update in the coming weeks. OpenXR will help reduce overhead for VR/AR developers and hopefully provide consumers with more choice. ocul.us/2WiUg9u

"Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it." - Kernighan.
