> shipping good software at prolific rates
I think your definition of good needs to be rethought
“The primary job of software engineers is to make software suck less.” - a university professor i had, 20 years ago.
Let’s not romanticize the past because it’s easier to ship (probably still buggy) code today.
its not though. the primary job of software engineers is to ship a product that produces income for their employer.
Does this definition work for SWEs who develop open source projects?
