Move Slow and Fix Things: A Case for Deliberate Engineering

Original: Move Slow and Fix Things (2024)

A 2024 essay arguing that software teams should prioritize fixing problems carefully rather than shipping fast has drawn attention among developers. The piece riffs on Facebook's old 'move fast and break things' motto, making the case that slowdown and repair lead to more durable software. Readers are debating whether deliberate, slower development is realistic in an industry that rewards rapid shipping.

Why now: It challenges the dominant fast-shipping culture in tech, sparking debate among developers about quality versus speed.
