Developers have to fix their own bugs regardless, or they are quickly not be developers for our company any more. In this system they have a lot more incentive not to create bugs, because the time it takes to fix them will take away from earning their next bounty.
- tptacek 17y agoI hear what you're saying but I have also been in this situation before. There are no-fault bugs that happen (or, maybe not even bugs: maybe just someone's got the system configured badly, and the person who wrote the code is the best person to figure that out). You're not firing the developer who left a bug behind. You're just incentivizing them not to help.
