Yeah… it’s like picking three points in an n-dimensional matrix. It is sufficient for creating an illusion of being scientific about it.

Indeed. And besides that, all three are really bad parodies. Mort is the only one where the product actually works, because for him that’s an explicit goal. With the other two, a working product is mere coincidence.

		Precisely. Also people underestimate the power of mort code. The world runs on it, and besides, at the end of the day unless you are an executive or own significant stock in the company, making decisions about speed/outcome vs tech debt actually isn’t your job IMO. Give your opinions and advice but at the end of the day build what they ask you to in the manner they’re happy for you to build it - if they demand speed over quality that’s on them. And you can improve everything with a system. A team of morts forced into a framework where testers/qa/code review find and make them fix the problems along the way before the product is shipped is an incredibly powerful thing to behold.

Exactly the expectation value for "analysis of types of developers done by people who really don't care about people"

"so, there's 3 boxes. no more, no less. why? i have a gut feeling. axis? on a case by case basis. am i willing to put my money where my mouth is? heallnaw!"
