Different definitions of lazy.

* lazy - wants do as little work in the future as possible and so spends extra time now solving the problem the right way.

* lazy - has no consideration for the future and takes a straight line path to solving the problem now. Spends all future time fixing problems created from this approach.

There’s a subset of the second definition where you delegate all the future fixing time to some unfortunate young developers, both wasting their time and tainting their souls in the process.

Well said! Have not seen the tension expressed in this way before.

I'm of the first type - which I call "busyness in the pursuit of eventual laziness" :)
