seriously, spend some time thinking about what you are trying to accomplish and adjust accordingly.
- mechanical_fish 18y agoSame words, different context. In many startups, shipping buggy software is a trivial danger compared to the risk of spending too much time carefully wringing the bugs out of software that nobody will use and that will never make any money. In that context, when someone says "you should ship it right now", what they really mean is "you should test the market before wasting any more time polishing the product". Obviously, the IT department of a brokerage firm is a much different environment. The market is already tested, and you should already know how many millions of dollars a showstopper bug is going to cost you.
