MVP mania perhaps? You know, the old chestnut about "You have to get the shoddiest, most ethereal, stuck together with sticky tape and chewing gum version of your app out there to get market validation before you do some serious development work on it" ideology that is always being touted in the startup world... It tends to lead to this sort of technical debt.
- hultner 9y agoTo be honest at least in this case it’s probably worth it. It great to have something delivered so we don’t waste enormous energy on building features no one ends up wanting.
- laumars 9y agoMVP doesn't necessarily mean a product is buggy. It means a product excludes nice-to-have features that doesn't add immediate value. Basic validation is something I've always pushed for even for MVPs as that often goes hand in hand with platform security (another thing I still push for in MVPs)
