I asked 100 devs they aren't shipping faster. Here's what I learned
- phito 3y agoThis article is almost two months old and still is missing a word in the title?
- geor9e 3y agoIt's polite of them to leave the glaring error in the title. Otherwise we might confuse it for a high quality article and actually read it.
- lesserknowndan 3y agoHe shipped too fast :)
- joshka 3y agoI suspect the "Why" got filtered by hn and not by the poster.
- asplake 3y agoIt was cleverly anticipating the HN headline mangler

- rahen 3y agoThey don't ship faster because there's no real point in doing so, besides rushing half-baked releases. The CI/CD trend has lowered the standards on release quality and long term support. It's fast-food applied to dev, I see no need to exacerbate it to cater to some trend-du-jour dogmatist. This is a commercial anyway, the low quality articles on their blog are just trying to give some credibility.
- BLKNSLVR 3y agoIf what you say is true, it feels as if it's a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Lower release quality will require more, and more frequent, bug fixes, for which faster shipping is considered important to those high enough in the hierarchy that they don't understand that there could be any drawbacks to 'faster'.
- joshka 3y agoIt might be nice to do some more repeatable automated grouping on these (e.g. sentiment analysis) rather than subjectively doing so. You asked 100 devs, but the total in the last graph is 55... what gives? It's a shame that this question isn't added to something like https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2023/#professional-developers-productivity-impacts https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2023/#professional-developer...
- dwb 3y agoHow about stress and its related problems at least partly due to bosses pushing for ever faster, faster, faster shipping, why aren't you going faster? What can we do? This is the most important thing in the world!
