I'm the same way. I refuse to use whatever's hot tomorrow unless it's been qualified and tested. That's not knee-jerk conservatism, that's just smart product development.
- cjsuk 9y agoExactly that. I have had many bad experiences where unreliable software has fucked production even if it is the current fad and has an arena of consultants and conferences behind it. If you don’t independently test and understand the software and just chuck it in and see what happens, which is how some people think it should be done, then you’re burning your business badly.
- hackerfromthefu 9y agoConsultants and conferences are a warning sign ..
- crdoconnor 9y agoTechnology doesn't magically become qualified and tested by itself, it's something you have to do.
- tradersam 9y agoNo shit. That's why it's done, and then used in production. That's the whole point.
