> So if you think an organization is broken, programming can often-times fix it. Believing this fallacy will bring you nothing but suffering. If an organization is limited - if the will is there to do the right thing but the workload is more than the people involved can handle - then programming can indeed help, by amplifying productivity. But a broken organization is not merely one where means are insufficient. It's one where you are forbidden to do the right thing. That's not a technical problem, it's a political one, and no amount of programming can fix it. You have to either get into a political fight - which probably isn't your area of comparative advantage, but best of luck if you do take that approach - or get out and find a job somewhere less dysfunctional.
