How can you tell that tech debt is at zero.
- andrewstuart 4y agoCause there isn't a bunch of "working but only really half implemented/could be better", corner cut stuff in the system.
- hayst4ck 4y agoHow hard is something to understand? How hard is it to operate? How often does it fail? How hard is it to change? How much time is spent in toil? These questions underpin the idea of debt.
