I feel like the stakes are never low becasue when you ship crap your getting paged. You'll work weekends or overnights to fix your shoddy code and choices. Yeah the stakes are low like no one really cares if the b2b SaaS is down. But I care because I value my own time. I feel like no one thinks that way.

Also on the topic of the rant, I think to many people just don't give a shit. Idk how they're like that? To many people develop software that aren't computer people.
