Many people favor quick hackers to build products that do not scale, causing technical debt that cripples teams and ruins products.
The tech industry's reckless 'move fast and break things' mentality leads to brittle systems and difficulty in maintenance or scaling.
Choosing trendy stacks like Node.js over more robust frameworks like .NET can result in long-term chaos, lost productivity, and unstable systems.
To ensure sustainable software engineering and avoid technical debt, it is necessary to prioritize quality over speed and demand better practices for long-term success.
