This attitude is why so many open-source projects are shit. That said, the habit of shipping often is a good one to have. But I think it's important to follow through and deliver something of quality every time you ship.
- neutronicus 15y agoIn no way is Don Stewart responsible for anything being shit.
- bryanp 15y agoI totally agree. My point is that misunderstood and/or misused this attitude can lead to trouble.
- baguasquirrel 15y agoYou can't make good shit without having made bad shit first. Were you always the programmer you are now?
- unshift 15y agojust because you're trying to improve doesn't mean you have to share your bad code with the world. there's nothing wrong with writing code and trying to improve, but there's something to be said for being a good editor and not releasing every keystroke you type. why release that which isn't good or useful?
- follower 15y ago> why release that which isn't good or useful? Because we're not the best judge of what is good or useful. The person who chooses whether or not to use our code is the best judge.
- dillona 15y agoIt could be a good starting point for someone else to come along, polish it up, and release it
