Who defines what "good enough" means? Is it basic functionality? What if that basic functionality contains security vulnerabilities? What if it is written in such a way that will cause potential, foreseeable problems down the road? What if it is written in such a way that it is only understandable to the author? What exactly is "good enough?"


I’ve found it’s far better to error on the side of speed and work pragmatically on features rather than trying to deliver perfection. That’s just me though. Nothing is going to be free of defect or perfectly secure.
