Competence is expensive :) While I mostly agree, even well designed systems have (sometimes considerable) tradeoffs.

I have been listening to how fast moderen computers are for the better part of the past two decades, yet as I user I still have to deal daily with too many of slow software and slow web services.

Somebody once said "cheap things are expensive". This idea applies to developers as well. Cheap developers will drive company through bumpy roads towards uninteresting plains. Good developers not only pay for themselves but bring orders of magnitude more cash in. Only thing that touches on this that I can find is "software craftsmanship manifesto".
