Great analysis / report. At times a bit repetitive, but that could be useful for people skimming or jumping or quoting as well.


Despite 91% of CTOs citing technical debt as their biggest challenge, it doesn’t make the top five priorities in any major CIO survey from 2022–2024.

Sad. Tragic.


I'm lucky to be in a good, small company with a good, reasonable customer, where I naturally had and grew into having the freedom and autonomy to decide on things. The customer sets priorities, but I set mine as well, and tackle what's appropriate or reasonable/acceptable. Both the customer and I have the same goals after all, and we both know it and collaborate.


Reading made me think of the recent EU digital regulations. Requiring due diligence, security practices, and transparency. It's certainly a necessary and good step in the right direction to break away from the endless chase away from quality, diligence, and intransparency.
