We desperately need to start a Slow Software movement. High quality, intentionally designed, low defect software done at a quarter of the pace for the same price. Because we've been destroying the mental health of developers for the last quarter century, and what do we have to show for it but a giant mess?
@uncanny_kate b-b-but capital!
@uncanny_kate also the mental health of tech support and all of the customers. Seriously the first company that can release glich free software by taking care and time, may very well rule the market.
@uncanny_kate I NEED A BIGGER BOOST BUTTON
The current way companies do Agile is "Build a half-assed MVP with code we'll have to throw out wholesale if we want to upgrade it, do user research and find out they don't really wanna use it because it's not doing everything the old version did, and decide not to dedicate the resources needed to rewrite it into something usable."
Rinse and repeat ad nauseum etm.
