"...until the rewrite"

Old school me understood we always create three versions: understand the problem, understand the solution, do it right.

I'm poorly adapted to today's world where projects don't mature past the first stage. Because of fashion, re-orgs, acquisitions, general purpose chaos.

closely related to the "get it working, get it quick, get it pretty" process of experienced devs doing new stuff.
