It's ultimately Google's responsibility to ship bug free products. I don't care who implements a fix, but Google management should make sure someone fixes it.

No, it’s really not, it’s none of our jobs to do that. It’s our job to make our employer (even if you are your own employer) money.

It’s incredibly rare you have the luxury of even trying to deliver bug free code, let alone achieve it.

People eventually stop using, and paying for, buggy code.

ROFL this has not been my experience. Many more people stop paying because of some featuritis request you snubed to keep the bugs under control.

Because big tech companies are oligopolies, and there isn't enough competition in the market. If you're dissatisfied with the 2 choices out there, you cannot vote with your wallet.

And this attitude is why we have the software we have in 2026. The profession used to recognize value beyond next quarter’s dividend (jk, we only do stock buybacks now for tax reasons).

What? Every company I worked for wished for bug free code. Mistakes happen but there was no acceptance for yolo-ship features.
