disvalued craft

most of the time project managers (in cases of non-agile team) tend to forget that end of the day, software has to delivered. thinking that by ignoring the non-functional requirements will save them cost. however, it is so obvious that as early as UAT, issues like slow server response time, hero developers cry for code rewrite, loss of repository data integrity, etc. what really cause these issues? well again, it is obvious. these managers believe that it is always the functionality that can only make the project owner happy. what can you do? what can we do? we are just developers. developers that can see through a fancy graphical interface. let's just wait and see until everything blows.
