Sounds like your definition of better is pretty narrow. Quick and cheap are two of the three fabled: "Fast, cheap, and good: choose two"

- twister2920 3mo ago"more good" seems like a pretty decent definition of better to me. The words you are looking for are "cheaper" and "faster"
- qup 3mo agoIn coding we usually change it to "cheap, fast or correct: choose two" I reject your correction: I present the options as nouns, not modifiers to the work. Maybe I should say "Cheap, Fast, or Good" as a compromise.
- dofm 3mo agoAre you perhaps missing the true message of that aphorism? Or are you saying the industry is (because it is)

- AlotOfReading 3mo ago"good" can take lots of different meanings. Generally though, I want as little code as I can get away with. A majority of code lifecycle cost isn't in writing it.
- wavemode 3mo agoHuh? The word "better" is the comparative form of the adjective "good". Or did you misunderstand the comment you're replying to?
