People who care about steam engines are quite happy to cosplay. Taken forward people who care about mainframes are cosplaying. People who patch COBOL running on an emulation of GEORGE3 on icl emulated hardware, are cosplay. People at airports using tcpip dongles to emulate an IBM printer terminal to run load sheets and ticket issue are cosplaying.
When I put a collar shirt with graph paper pattern and a linen jacket on to speak at meetings about technology I'm cosplaying.
We're all living in a simulation of our own making. Teams are not real.
The article is misnamed. It's about cosplay roles not simulation.
The simulation question is also mostly valueless. I would express the same moral imperative inside or outside of a simulation because "do unto others" is what it's all about irrespective.
The article has nothing to do with the philosophical idea of the simulation hypothesis.
It talks about how large portions of the software industry are engaging in a sort of simulation of actual work. The idea of "startup cosplay" is both funny and quite sad.
I found the article very interesting, i'd recommend you reading it :)
