The analogy only goes so far and it's not clear to me what you mean, what do you mean "default on tech debt"? Re-write? Give up and just accept the penalty when changing systems?

There’s a general rule in amateur gardening that you rotate the location of your potatoes on something like a 4 year schedule. In wider agriculture you’re looking at “crop rotation”. I don’t know how this affects specific beetles etc.

I wouldn't say that's locked though. The place I currently work is on 6.1. We're not locked to it, we're going to upgrade, but in a few weeks or so. I can understand the reason to put off encrypting the field too. Upgrad

Most VR headsets allow you to wear glasses, this one no idea. I've had a couple of VR headsets and am -6.5 each eye, no issue with glasses myself. There are some places that do custom lenses for the popular headset models too but I&#x2
