The slow part of software is NOT the initial generation of software. It's the maintenance and review of it.

If your management is pushing for 10x programmer output, hell even 40% more programmer output, what they're asking for is a stability crisis. There's no way around it. That's how it is right now.

@cwebber That's Apple right now. We didn't ask for "liquid glass" and most of us hate it. They try to come out with an OS every year now cause it's tied to the year instead of a stupid simple OS version like OS 11, OS 12 etc.
