The difference between buildings and software is that generally a building has a defined „done“ state, but a piece of software keeps changing until it has so many scars of unmaintainable mess that it’s cheaper to start a new company than to fix it.
- KaiserPro 3y agoI mean thats the unwritten/implied problem with software project management. There is no "Done" state, there is no real plan for the future. It is possible to make software sustainable, but for many reasons there's not much incentive to do so. Partly because its rare that the business understands that product it makes, or if they do understand, leadership get bored and want to try something new.
