No, technical debt isn&amp;#x27;t good, just like getting jabbed with a sharp object in the throat isn&amp;#x27;t good for you.  The reasonable point the article is making is that there are some things worse than accruing technical debt, like spending too much time making an ivory tower system that doesn&amp;#x27;t actually have product fit.  Similarly, getting jabbed with a sharp object in the throat in the case of a &lt;i&gt;tracheotomy&lt;/i&gt; can be necessary, but that doesn&amp;#x27;t mean that you should run around jabbing yourself in the throat just for the sake of it.  Technical debt is similar; sometimes necessary, but never choose it for its own sake.</text><parent_chain><item><author>nautilus12</author><text>I&amp;#x27;m starting to see a trend in hacker news stories of the type:&lt;p&gt;Why &lt;i&gt;bad for you thing&lt;/i&gt; is actually good for you.
