Despite decades of progress and industry experience, many teams still find themselves stuck in the negative feedback loop of a successive march of deadlines and the plaintive, delusional cry of 'we'll fix it later'.
This feedback loop is often fuelled by an enourmous fallacy in the world of software - that you can trade-off speed and quality.
