Technical Debt<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The concept is now pervasive. Having to suffer because of somebody else\u2019s shortcomings of technology and taking on technical debt is having a negative impact on you, unknowingly.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
There\u2019s gonna be some bad news and a silver lining: because that\u2019s what Larry Chiang does. I\u2019m going to take technical debt and I\u2019m going to show you how to benefit from technical debt<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
So that we\u2019re all on the same page, \u201ctechnical debt\u201c is where you string together a solution that is not long-term feasible. This pattern was first recognized by a VC in the early 2010. While constrained to be born inside of a Silicon Valley boardroom, technical debt has applications, worldwide, economy, spanning, and ubiquitously.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Here\u2019s what I\u2019m talking about:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
✅ solving a technical debt means that you hunted a problem to solve<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
✅ technical debt is as invisible to people as inflation. Inflation is a form of technical debt.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
When a thermodynamic system that you\u2019re living in tries to violate the three laws of thermodynamics a occurrence is some version of technical debt<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
✅ the technical debt of a problem that\u2019s so glaringly obvious that nobody wants to touch it with a 10 foot pole<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The prior solution was to bring in LGBTQ<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
✅ in macroeconomic circles there\u2019s a saying called \u201cyou cannot print energy\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Distraction. Bringing this down to the level that\u2019s between your ears. There is technical debt in being distracted. Vine for your attention is a shiny object that that\u2019s causing you to not solve some version of technical debt.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
What is a technical debt that you see. Tell me in the comments.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
What is a technical debt that you recognized but then somebody wanted to fire you because you\u2019re a troublemaker because you called out a systemic technical debt<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
What is your superhero alter ego name?<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
My stripper name is Lorenzo. He does a PG-13 strip dance that solves her technical debt: bachelor party in Miami.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The story does end. Well, it absolutely does. Step one is comment what you think 1 technical debt is.<\/div>\n
