GergelyOrosz Tech debt is a misnomer. Debts are contracts to repay. But this sort of borrowing is contingent on risk criteria, which often times will never apply. It’s more like an uncovered option, you can bet it’s never called, or hedge other ways.On twitter.com

GergelyOrosz Sometimes the option is called in a dramatic fashion… like XPSP1, where the entire windows team dropped everything for 6 months and rewrote the operating system **without strcpy() and memcpy()** to stop the flood of buffer overflow exploits. 🔥Permalink On twitter.com

GergelyOrosz Other times it’s subtle… Like when Jeff wanted to change the price of Prime membership, and he popped a gasket when told it would take 9 months of development work. 🐢Permalink On twitter.com
