Developers: "The problem is that the faster we go, the more we get things wrong and have to fix them or do them over again, which actually makes us slower overall"

Big Tech: "I see, yes. What if... hear us out... what if you could get things wrong much, much faster?"

@jasongorman Definitely! The current state of game development is a stunning example. I used to gasp at a little flaw. Now? You go through 10 games and find one that is maybe 50% OK. Complain and the devs blame your hardware that wasn't bought 5min. ago.

@adritheonly @jasongorman Absolutely... Now is the time for code editors requiring 8+ GB of RAM to run.
