This isn’t the first time I’ve used the term software stagnation. I’ve heard people talk about software like they use their hands. I don’t agree. I believe that software is a living, breathing entity that is constantly evolving. There is a constant flux of code to be written, new versions of existing code to be developed, and changes in the business of the software itself to be implemented.
Software stagnation is the opposite of the “code is dying” mentality. Software stagnation is a mindset that believes that the software industry as a whole is a dying business. In the software community, programmers are encouraged to do what they do best: produce software. Many developers believe that if they work full time, they must be producing software, so they choose to work on a side project. But this simply isn’t true.

Code is dying mentality. Every single time there is a release it’s going to die. Everyone who has ever worked on code for any length of time is doomed to death. A software company is doomed to be a die-hard machine and never be able to provide a product that you can use for your next project.
Software stagnation is a common trend among software startups. Most software companies are either building new products or simply trying to out-compete another company’s product. But as the software industry grows, so do the number of startups. The current trend is that more and more software companies, even large companies, are building products that never make it to market.
Software stagnation is when a startup has no product at all. This is basically the ultimate death spiral, where the startup becomes an island of death while all the other startups slowly die. These startups usually start out as a garage company, but over time they find their ideas and product ideas getting lost in the shuffle.
The startup scene is a tough one to watch. Many startups are actually doing fantastic things, but most of them die from the lack of product. Sometimes their entire life is spent building prototypes and getting feedback, but all they ever end up with is a pile of dust (or more often, the wrong product). Some of the more successful startups have built their product so well that there are tons of companies trying to copy them.
A good example of this is Zappos. I know that they’re a great company that has a fantastic product. But when I hear about their competitors copying Zappos I cringe. They’re not just competing in a niche market, they’re competing with Zappos.
The one thing they’re not competing on is the Internet. Their competitors are not just copying their products like they are copying their products. They’re learning to make their products better, so they’re making better products. Their competitors are also copying their product, but that’s something that they won’t find a niche market for, so they’re copying their products, but they’re still fighting against themselves. They’re fighting against themselves.
It is true that the world is now flooded with overpriced and underperforming software. For example, I can buy software for $50 and get a better software product for $10. It is also true that software is getting cheaper all the time. But it is also true that software is also getting more sophisticated and powerful all the time. Its the same thing as the world is getting flooded with overpriced and underperforming food. There are a lot of cheap food out there.
