> "Clearly the group that rushed won" This is has been the case since I started developing software in the 90's. As far as I, and likely many others, are concerned it might as well be a Software Aphorism. I think it will be very interesting as we continue to reverse engineer such things to find out just how poorly "glued together" the Paper Tigers really are.... | ||

Dijkstra even wrote about it decades before that. But the issue is that this has a feedback loop. It doesn't take long for everything to be made of spaghetti and duct tape. Duct tape is a fine tool, but the real danger is a temporary fix that works is never temporary | ||
