Guys remember this kind of stuff when you are building side projects. You can just ship you don’t need every feature on day one.

  the ability to change email address is not that complicated of a feature to postpone to later. maybe they should ask CC to fix this...

    It’s not a complicated feature and it’s also not required on day 1. At Cronitor we did not have it for nearly 2 years.

      I don't know. I actually find it harder and more stressful to write code in a way that does not meet a certain quality level. it require me to actually think more. It's king of weird, but I have tried over the years to develop a do-just-what-is-necessary-now mindset in my software engineering work, and I just can't make my mind work that. For me, doing things right is a way for me to avoid having to hold too much context in my head while working on my projects. I know the idiomatic way to do something, and if i just do it that way, then when I come back to it I know it should and is architectured.

        “I don’t have this feature yet” is not really a mental burden. For any successful project that is always true about a lot of features.
