if safety standards are written in blood then enterprise software is written in lawsuits
- stackskipton 1y agoDisagree that it's written in lawsuits, it's written to please every customer under the sun and due to this, code base has become Rube Goldberg machine that few people understand.
- DaiPlusPlus 1y ago> it's written to please every customer under the sun Yes, with the caveat that the customer is not - nor does not represent - the actual end-users. The customer is someone in procurement. ...or nepotism is involved.
- NearAP 1y ago> it's written to please every customer under the sun Disagree with this. In the places I’ve worked, I’ve lost count of the number of times we turned down feature requests with the explanation that - this isn’t common practice and seems to be unique to you.
- stackskipton 1y agoI think you are one working at Unicorn. Most Enterprise software I've dealt with ends up with internal coding engine so it can be extended to do whatever the customer needs. Bonus points of getting to charge massive implementation consulting hours for all coders that come along during implementation.
