Jira's like guns: it can be used for good or evil. But given how bad the worst case can be, would you really want to leave a bunch of rifles lying around your company?
- AtlasBarfed 3y agoGuns: the only good outcome of a gun is it is never used, virtually all other uses of guns are differing flavors of tragedy Perhaps people don't remember the days of bugzilla as a product, or various CA (computer associates) software. JIRA is bloated and probably inferior now, but it was a far superior option about 15 years ago.
- steve1977 3y agoYeah it was once the cool kid in town. Just recently I read a nice quote here on HN (paraphrasing): Either you die young as a hero or you live long enough to become the villain
- musicale 3y ago> virtually all other uses of guns are differing flavors of tragedy Like the Olympic biathlon.
- AtlasBarfed 3y agoWhat happens more often, a biathlon, or a school shooting?
- musicale 3y agoWomen's division I'd say biathlon. Not sure about men's though.
