The Slow Formation of Durable Software

Dan Cohen argues in a new essay that durable software is built slowly, contrasting long-lived, carefully maintained projects with the rapid churn of modern development. The piece is drawing attention among developers and technologists who are debating trade-offs between speed of shipping and long-term reliability, maintenance and craftsmanship in software engineering.
