Instead of piling on new things, Snow Leopard aimed to build on the success of its predecessor, Leopard, opting to focus on under-the-hood performance and stability improvements throughout the system.

    As is the style these days.

    It’s crazy to think that through the 2010s and up to just a few years ago we were in this huge drive for quality in software engineering.

    More tests. Robust pipelines. Squash the bugs.

    Uptime was a matter of pride for web services. Anything less than five 9’s was shameful.

    Then AI happened and every business collectively decided they don’t give a fuck about quality any longer. Screw it, ship the features, line goes up.

    I hate it.
