IMHO
Time is the most objective thing we have. It doesn't give a crap on your origin, race, social status, money, color of the skin, religion, political believes, ideology... whatever.
It it the same for all, it has the same value for all and everyone of us will regret to have wasted it with less important crap in one way or another...

Except that subjectively, time is very different for all of us, at various 'times' of our lives. If you are waiting for something important, time can seem to go very slowly. When I was a child, time seemed to run very slow. Now the years just fly by... Looking back, the difference seems stark.

That's the perception of it in your brain. That's a different story.

I suspect you would view that differently while waiting for the results of significant medical operation on a child.

Why? on the clock the time would be the same for everyone. The perception of it while waiting for the results would be bigger / slower for me, yeah, I give you that, but still the perception of it, not the time itself.

Time is the most objective thing we have.
Not since Einstein's Theory of Relativity was published. Every frame of reference has a different time, and these times cannot, in general, be synchronised (Only frameworks stationary relative to each other can be synchronised.).
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Nitpicky...  
On the other hand... time might be different long in case of the relativity, but the effect to people will still be the same under their own perspective / reality / timeframe / however it is called. So what I told before continue applying, only under a different "speed"

It may be objective, but it's not the same for everyone. General Relativity says otherwise. GR is correct, because if it weren't GPS and other satellite navigation systems wouldn't work.

I didn't say it is the same (phisically). I only said that it doesn't care about anything regarding us while doing its job, that it has the same value for all and that most will end regreting having wasted it.

Keep in mind, I'm an older version, maybe I'm completely wrong
For me it looks these days 85% of the time we have for development goes into
A.) 85% discussions/meetings about
- Which pattern here and there
- Dependency Injection here and there for loose coupling
- Code review and refactoring ... and testing the 'whole sh*t' again
- [Edit]Learning/recognize this and that syntactic suggar [/Edit]
- ....
B.) 15%
Implementing the customer's request
Don't get me wrong: All these Patterns and technics (DI, test driven dev, etc.) are pretty ok.
But the religion around it takes too much of the resources 
Others who feel the same?

IMO
especially for new projects.
80% deciding what "technology of the day" to use
15% reverting back to trusted but boring technology.
5% coding.

Definitely an upvote for this reply 
On new projects, we're often like crows looking for food. Wait! Check this out, a new shiny object! Hours later, hmm, it doesn't do anything or do it better.

90% rewriting builder scripts due to new .NET versions / new signing demands from CA authorities
10% coding
|
|
|
|
|
Let me agree with your sentiment by proposing the following analog:
Even the software development itself is 90% thought and visualization and only 10% writing code.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.
