      It is an approved maxim in war, never to do what the enemy wishes you to do, for this reason alone, that he desires it.

          Yeah, in this day and age that will almost likely not take place. I work in IT and sometimes it feels like the stuff now is stuff that needs done now, and all attempts to safeguard against drastic fixes later is a little extra time now. However, I’ve had many times I had to put out fires I noted would happen down the road.
