'OK, everyone. Stop typing, this software is DONE,' said no one ever • The Register
'That would be considered crazy in software because under the current rules of software culture things can never be "done". ', "That's how the current software industry works."
'Then I discovered my account was going to be involuntarily upgraded from CentOS 6 to CentOS 7. '
'Which is exactly why the software gods stepped in and forced it back into development. ', "Look at the release notes for any major software product over time and you'll notice that most are heading toward a done moment."
I would prefer that the folks running my server are able to manage it easily; and is why I pay more for a managed service. I don't want to patch, manage, maintain the environment. Whatever, if you give a dev a free pizza he, she or ze will bitch because it's not gluten-free, vegan pepperoni.
If I've already decided to work on the project it's probably because I think the product is good enough to spend my time on it. So, put some company stock on the Pizza and I'll be happy.
