- frosted-flakes 5y agoThat works too, but the saying is "hit by a bus".
- Jensson 5y agoCompanies never stop working like that, they just stop being able to make changes. So many companies has huge amounts of legacy code nobody understands and they still work, that is what bus factor 0 looks like. It isn't the end of the company but it is the end of any significant innovations the company can do with that product.
