The Never Rewrite Podcast, Episode Forty, Convincing Emotionally-Committed Colleagues That A Rewrite Is Not Worth It

Isaac and Jeffrey provide strategies for working with colleagues who are emotionally committed to rewriting old and flawed code at their companies.

Takeaways:

  • Validate the analysis and perspective of coworkers who are emotionally committed to doing a rewrite.
  • Consider the financial implications of a rewrite and align priorities with the business’s goals.
  • Communicate the rationale for not pursuing a rewrite and document the reasons for future reference.
