The Problem
In the past, technical change was unexpected.
Today, we know it's coming, just not the details.
Our content has to be movable between formats, including those that don't yet exist, ideally with no manual processing.
This means we can no longer:
Violate syntax and hack code to be cool.
Exploit tool peculiarities to take shortcuts.
Not understand the future.

The Solution
Work with an eye to the future, even if we don't know what the future is.
To do so, set and follow standards for:
Philosophy.
Programming.
Methodologies and procedures.
Strategic business support.

 

Take the time to train and training WILL save you time!
