Everyone wants software with a lots of features. From time to time even if using the trendiest, more recommended libraries and solutions the software will always arrive to the point where volume or complexity will brake the puzzle of components forcing a complete rethink. Then someone will have to understand the picture, drill inside the code of unknown sources and find the wonderful workaround which bypasses the buzzwords and goes into the real problems. In a world where developers are programmers and people are resources this will not happen, the manager which knows nothing of the actual code will continue living in it’s world full of shinny buzzwords he learned in the seminaries and conferences and the code will be bad. I can be either cheap or expensive but it will be bad. And if by any chance somebody will take the time to loose those neurons and  make the crucial changes not written in any powerpoint product presentations then this price can never be repaid no matter how expensive that software will be because this type of effort is random and cannot be quantified in any business plan. It’s the moment of clarity which simplifies the problems and makes a software work.
