Why not changing just for the sake of it? What could possibly go wrong?

More information on Google's openly developed O/S featuring capability-based security and Microkernel architecture. This is the documentation project, which seems to be providing good quality technical information.
I hope this doesn't end up being another O/S dead end - I've seen to many promising systems wither and die before even being released.

At some point in your tech career, a hard choice has to be made. Do you continue down the path your managers laid out, or go against the grain? It’s never an easy choice, but it might be better to take a stand. No?

One thing I've learned over the years is that when a bad technical decision is forced on you, it is important to put your objections in writing (an email will suffice), so that when the faeces hits the ventilator, you have something to point to and say "I tried to warn you".
In one case, this saved me being sacked.

Whoa! That must have been some bad design choice!

It is always an easy choice; you're hired and paid for you expertise. A manager is just another employee, and being human, they do make mistakes. If you do not interfere, then you are not just facilitating a bigger error, but you are now part of a larger problem.
Imagine a hospital working like the "tech pro" that they jabber about here; yes, well, we forgot some equipment in that body, but its already sewn shut and the manager wants to release the new version anyway. Would you call that a "pro"? Seriously?

The next big update for Windows 10 has been delayed while Microsoft rushes to fix a newly-discovered bug. I guess the groundhog saw its shadow?

But how to measure that? Your team is waiting "He that dies pays all debts."

What we're talking about here is technical debt. The decisions that developers make early on to get the code out the door can come back and bite them – or their successors – later.
Equally important are the decisions that the developers fail to realize that they should be making. This may be the best distinction between a senior developer vs. a junior developer -- the senior developer knows (or should know) quite a bit more about the decisions need that to be made.
