[en] In Why We Can’t Have Nice Software, I point out this pattern of needless software churn in the mindless quest for profit. This is a perfect example occurring right now. Redict has already reached its peak; it does not need any more serious software development to occur. It does not need to pivot to AI. It can be maintained for decades to come with minimal effort. It can continue to provide a high amount of value for a low amount of labor. That’s the entire point of software!
Redict does not have any profit left to offer. It no longer needs a fund-raising entity behind it anymore. ==It just needs a good project steward.==

Il me reste encore tellement de choses à démêler…
