Working on software development tasks is like going to the Dentist.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Releasing new features, bug fixes, dependency updates, and refactoring is better and less painful when done regularly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Doing these changes in small and regular batches is less risky than less frequent and larger releases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It's easier to identify the cause of any issues and correct course if things aren't going to plan.
