Also there can be other real life business constraints. Sometimes the project need more devs but there aren't any to add. Sometimes the deadline is truly set in stone and if you miss it you are truly fucked. In times like these you have to cut corners and these are the easiest corners to cut for short term speed.
"Amaterur vs professional" feels "Good vs Bad" for me but real life is never as simple as that.
- yabudemada 6y agoSoftware today is a complicated mess. On the consumer side, peoples minds are so fickle and they want the latest shiny object or app; on the software side, companies are constantly inventing new ways to do the same old thing; hardware is getting tossed in the dump, when it is actually still very viable. It's fascinating to see what people are doing with old hardware like Commodore 64, because it's understandable and doesn't change at this point. If we can use hardware that is almost 50 years old, why are cycling through things so rapidly?
