And... when everything failed except the new system, which seemed to keep the company operational despite the executives' views... you still agree with them?

- villasv 5y agoRefactoring by definition doesn’t fix things though so parent comment is still right
- BoorishBears 5y agoWhat? By literal definition refactoring is fixing things without changing functionality... > refactoring the old things we produced into the new technology stack. You don't see how that could fix things?
