The point about work becoming irrelevant is especially painful. SaaS faces rising table stakes from competitors. Locally run software is in a race against platform obsolescence. Some times it feels like trying to surf on a never ending wave.

I get what he's trying to say, but the danger is people (especially management) getting the wrong impression. The risk of "move fast is good" is that it becomes hustle culture where people rush under deadlines and eventually burn out. There are plenty of occasions where slowing down and being thoughtful is beneficial. Often stopping focus is what gives eureka moments as the other side of the brain starts churning once new input ceases. There's a reason the cliché story of your best ideas happen on the toilet or in the shower are a thing.

It's like people reading Radical Candor (which I quite like) and concluding that being an asshole is ok.

It is even more true with startups and business. Super rushed is bad, but doing for too long decreases quality.

Would you rather have a heart surgeon who studied for years, spent years practising and assisting, and took time building up the skills needed; or a heart surgeon who just flipped through a book and watched a video on heart surgery?

Finding the golden middle ground between 'move fast and break things' and 'move slow and fix things' is difficult and as the stakes get higher it's only natural to favour slow, steady, and careful over flying by the seat of your pants.
