| Abstract: |
The author offers his opinion on balancing initial investment and long-term results in the software development process. He explains that technical debt (TD) often arises when short-term delivery goals are prioritized over long-term product concerns and explores the opposite of TD, technical credit (TC), which reduces development friction. |
