Every layer of review makes you 10x slower

AI won’t save us.

“As companies grow, they all end up with more and more layers of collaboration, review, and management. Why? Because otherwise mistakes get made, and mistakes are increasingly expensive at scale. The average value added by a new feature eventually becomes lower than the average value lost through the new bugs it causes. So, lacking a way to make features produce more value (wouldn’t that be nice!), we try to at least reduce the damage.”
