Nothing Is More Permanent Than A Temporary Fix

Nothing Is More Permanent Than A Temporary Fix

The universal truth that haunts every codebase like a ghost that refuses to leave. You slap together a "quick workaround" at 3 AM promising yourself you'll come back to refactor it properly next sprint. Fast forward three years and that temporary hack is now load-bearing infrastructure that nobody dares touch because the original developer left, documentation was never written, and removing it would probably cause the entire system to collapse like a house of cards. The temporary fix has achieved immortality while your carefully architected "proper solutions" got deprecated last Tuesday. Poetry in motion, really.
