I intentionally say "Move slow and fix things" as the rejection of "Move fast and break things", as opposed to the more popular "Move deliberately and fix things".

Because I want, very specifically, for *slow* to be seen as a virtue. Slow gives time for people whose entire life focus isn't what we're working on to react to changes, provide feedback that change is breaking things for them, participate in consensus process moving forward.

@dalias This sounds similar to a coworker's phrase of "slow is smooth, smooth is fast". It was used to point out taking time to do things like maintenance and architecture aren't slowing us down but instead making it easier for us to go faster in the long run. Unfortunately it's very difficult to convince multiple layers of management, and sometimes other coworkers, to go 'slow'.

@zimzat Yeah. That's why I believe the actual good work takes place outside of workplace environments.
