#softwareantifragility — Public Fediverse posts

3 signs your codebase is fragile (not just old):
1. One dev can touch it safely
2. Every fix breaks a couple of things
3. Nobody was around when decisions were made

Old ≠ fragile. Don't confuse the two!

Struggling with tech debt?
Quick fix: name it, place it, decide it:

1️⃣ Reckless + Deliberate = landmine
2️⃣ Reckless + Inadvertent = skills gap
3️⃣ Prudent + Deliberate = calculated bet
4️⃣ Prudent + Inadvertent = learning

Fix landmines first, log the rest!

You don't need a software system that never breaks.

You need one that gets smarter every time it does.
