Tech debt is like a gym membership:
You ignore it for years, then one day you try to fix it and realize you're too out of shape to even start.

@fribbledom@mastodon.social I have never joined a gym. But I ride a bike near exclusively for travel see so exercise is built into my day. I feel like there is a metaphor here regarding programming also ;-)
