It read more like "these developers are asking poorly formed, difficult to answer questions", and frankly reminded me of a LOT of r/CodingHelp problems I've seen lately. Aside from that the author seems to repeatedly have empathy and admiration for developers but thinks that there is a systematic disfunction. There is definitely a little "old man shouts at clouds" too, but at least to me this article read as a legitimate discussion of some pain points, certainly not a hit piece.
