tl;dr: "Moving fast" has become a moral posture that disguises impatience, fuzzy thinking, and avoidance of responsibility as productivity, producing systems and organizations built on unexamined assumptions that inevitably require expensive cleanup. Real speed comes from understanding the problem, clarifying constraints, and making clean decisions first—not from skipping the thinking and calling the resulting rework "iteration" or "learning." The author argues for urgency over haste: calmer work that still ships, but respects the problem enough to make sense of it before moving. | |
