It's come to my attention that a lot of companies are in "bean counting"-mode, unable to see potentials for all the myopic concentration on the short-term.
As an example we could point to the F–35 and their chioce to use C++ for the software instead of Ada — because "we can't find Ada developers" — despite that the cost to train them would have been less than the costs incurred on the development of the C++ JSF coding standard AND the repeated software-flaws that have plagued the system since its inception.
So, WHY is long-term, and even medium-term, thinking so undervalued these days?
