   Thanks for sharing your experience! :) Funny now that you mention.. I've been doing less and less side projects since my life got 'invaded' by social media. I wonder if I'm suffering from a similar problem...

   Yes, possibly. For the chances of a higher incidence I would say the way we raise our children these days is very different from when our parents raised us. A lot of the food is processed, many environments were children play are close to s

    How did this got to the frontpage? The content is complete rubish. And the floating modal on the center of the screen further proves my point.

    One can assume writing documentation and comments is covered by both approaches. Still, the fastest scenario would be the most productive one. I agree with your view regarding maintenance cost, but I don't think that's what's

    You don't need to measure quality, unless you want to achieve perfection. If you set your quality according to goals, you can ensure that no matter different software you write, it will need to meet same goals (same level of quality).

    I will oversimplify my response. Let's imagine that I wrote some test cases. To me, If my piece of code passes those tests, I will consider it of being of X quality. I won't care about any other quality than this X one. If I write

    Time would be an accurate measure, considering the same level of quality is met.

    I apreciate the fact that you clarified your point of view, I clearly misunderstood. A few things I would disagree regarding SMB's behaviour you describe (and I know myself a few of those too). I believe they shouldn't try to play
