not sure what he's on about, 100% of the tech debt I have experienced is from people doing too much rather than too little

my advice to future coders is to try to put your entire project into a single file...you'll have to drop every bright idea, abstraction, layer, etc just to make it palatable...and the world will thank you

“The tactical tornado is a prolific programmer who pumps out code far faster than others but works in a totally tactical fashion. When it comes to implementing a quick feature, nobody gets it done faster than the tactical tornado. In some organizations, management treats tactical tornadoes as heroes. However, tactical tornadoes leave behind a wake of destruction. They are rarely considered heroes by the engineers who must work with their code in the future”
