> Project gets out tomorrow versus a month from now? Will anyone still care two years from now? No? Wasn’t worth it.

1. TurboTax

2. A game or other software that needs to get out before Christmas

3. A dependency is being shut down (https://www.honeycode.aws/)

Side note: I was actually at AWS when Honeycode was introduced and on a team working on a popular open source “AWS Solution”. The Honeycode team wanted us to integrate with it and I vehemently opposed the idea. I said wait until it gains traction.

Luckily, I won that fight.
