It depends on. There's of course code that must be deeply checked. And all shades of grey. I guess it needs experience to know when to do what. Regarding to be forced or not... There are many kinds of pressure, features, deadlines... Of course, I learned how to deal with them and when to speak up or not. My boss is paying me the AI abo. He wants to get things done as fast and as good as possible. That's his job. We have to make sure to not keep behind. Other companies bring out new features faster and faster. Sadly, that's how the world goes round. I personally would take it slower... but seems there's only one way as longs as there are a few that go as fast as possible, you have to keep up.

Do you? Is shipping features faster really going to make or break a business?

I know that's not your call but IME it's simply not true: rarely do products win by simply being faster than their competition at delivering more features to market.

But the AI age has led to a panic among leaders as FOMO has taken over the industry. I can only hope one day that fever breaks.

I'm not optimistic.

It depends on the marked. When I did the Point-of-Sale software and Couponing stuff, it was not that important. Now I'm in a business, where marketing needs the features to sell consumer products. At least, that's what they tell all. So we have to deliver.

Yeah that's just the FOMO I'm talking about. Frankly, if your product is driven primarily by marketing you're already screwed.

Anyway, we're in this sh.t together so stay strong, keep your head up, and try not to compromise your ethics. The industry is seriously f.cked right now and it's going to be a rough ride for a while...
