As if every company indeed have no development team, while all of them retain teams of developers. discuss order hn newest hahahahhaah|1 month ago It is simple. A productive developer can either:* Fix things* Build new thingsAdd to this that things naturally break. Try a git reset to 1 year ago and deploy that to prod, for example.Add to that new features tend to add new bugs. DANmode|1 month ago If you finish the backlog, you’ll get laid off,the backlog keeps being increased (by you and your manager at times),so it never gets finished.Seems easy enough to explain.There has to be a dragon being fought to account for all this money.
