Developers, You Need to Stop Being So Stingy
- smacktoward 12y agoIt's not that developers are stingy, it's that people are stingy. We live in a stingy age. "Cheap and tolerable beats expensive and excellent" has been the #1 rule of the marketplace for at least fifty years now. And not just in software, but everywhere: garments, furniture, housing, cars, airlines, food... the list goes on and on. Maybe at some point in my lifetime the pendulum will start swinging in the other direction. I hope so, but given that this is a macro kind of trend, I kind of doubt it.
