You will always have tech debt, it's a matter of degree. Of course, you have to feel what the best ratio is for your project, which is highly dependent on circumstances, but you definitely want as little tech debt as possible.
But what does capitalism have to do with anything?
- tomlockwood 4y agoCapitalism drives people to deliver "value" as quickly as possible. That's the profit motive, which is the whole point.
- ulizzle 4y agoThe profit motive is about wanting to make money from a project, not about how it's actually achieved. If delivering value must be done slowly to make a profit, so be it. Notice how alcohol is generally more expensive with age (vintage).
- tomlockwood 4y agoThere's many ongoing projects to make whisky faster using ultrasonic agitation! Why? Because if the same value can be delivered faster, people try to. The same is true of software, and testing gets pruned.
