I was introduced by a coder in my previous role. He forwarded this link [1] to me to tell me that it is justified that he was taking time. I was pushing for him to complete 80% of the task so that we can push it in production, see the response and then complete it with testing. (I was heading growth at that time, and he was in product team.) I told him that the cases he was considering might not be encountered by 99% of users, so better launch something quickly, then we would know if we need to spend more time on it based on response. He gave me a timeline of four days, and I ended up doing it myself and making it live on a test branch in a day or so. Coming back, the argument did not go well, but I liked HN, and started reading it as a knowledge source.
