I work at a fintech startup in London. I Really like pair programming, cognition and education, and repeatability. Talk to me about testing, automation, or whatever you are passionate about.

Great article! I've been with Linux since before Gnome, and I think one of the great things about it for me was that I could use it before I had to use it for work. In fact I've never "had to" use any Linux for work, I've chosen to. I think that says a lot about the various projects that exist.
I also love FreeDOS, although I don't use it much any more, it was crucial in my looking into how OS's work; so thank you for that also.

I Understand why it's bad to be a perfectionist and I'm pretty far from one (constantly learning means you can't be because tomorrow you learn more that needs considering).
I Just feel like not having good-enough infrastructure or quality can be damaging. I think an additional thing that is quite bad though is OpenSource (or Closed Source) development with profit being the primary driver. I think that will kill most projects faster than high-standards.
