A culture of "we did something we shouldn't have done, but nothing happened this time" is how disasters happen.

I'd rather a bunch of move fast and break things short-sighted dipshits didn't make the risk higher, but here we are.

I hate that the Move Fast And Break Shit motto is so demonized now.

I think if what you’re working on is very low stakes, e.g. the initial versions of Facebook, or an AI music generator app, and maybe even marketing, it’s not unreasonable to try and move really quickly because the likelihood of real damage is pretty low.

Of course when you’re dealing with money or social security data or medical stuff, it’s different; that stuff is very much “move slow and don’t break anything!”
