I’ve had this conversation:
We need to increase our velocity! Has the customer told us yet what they would like us to build?
Unfortunately I can’t have that chat ever. I’m the one (in most of my career, not now) responsible for telling my folks what the customer wants, and not in a sales way.
mmmm spaghetti code
“Boss, most of the bricks we have are broken in pieces. We can’t build the wall per specifications.”
“We have a deadline, get it done however possible by the end of the day today.”
You can fix it later, but that doesn’t mean you’re going to.
Nothing’s more permanent than a temporary solution.
I’ve seen a “temporary fix” serve as a core element of a service stack for a company with annual revenue in the hundreds of millions for like at least 5 years.
