Software can be finished
SMRTR summary
Software developer advocates that programs can be truly "finished" - meaning feature-complete, secure, and standalone with no runtime dependencies. Examples include Nintendo Gameboy software running unchanged for 35 years and embedded systems in household appliances that never receive updates. Creating finished software requires understanding requirements upfront, keeping scope small, reducing dependencies, producing static output, and emphasizing quality assurance to minimize bugs from the start.
