Thank you for contrasting life building the latest social media platform from what many of the rest of us do. Currently I work on systems to prepare and validate birth and death certificates for the state, counties, hospitals, et al, and this whole “throw it against the wall and see what sticks” methodology doesn’t fly. Nor would it have worked when preparing and presenting investment account information 5 years ago, nor the job 10 years ago processing lawsuit and insurance claim cases and legal bills. Nor any place that I at least have ever worked in the last 30 years.

Agree, and I work in the latest 'social media platform' type end. We have many customers. I can assure the author of the post, when those customers pay for enterprise licensing and their system is broken with an obvious bug. The 'we didn't do any testing before hand because staging is a lie' doesn't actually fair well as a valid excuse for anything. In fact, you just look like an unprepared and immature muppet.
