There is "art" and there is "design". It feels like OP might be confusing the two. The latter is about creative expression within the confines of constraints like time, money, function, etc. The former is not. Doing grap

I think that in an ideal world the only tech debt that's okay is the debt you knowingly enter into. Debt is a part of life as tradeoffs are made every day. But sleep-walking into it is the real risk. Knowing you have it, or are going
