Antagelig sa det utsagnet med om stedet vi jobbet og om personen som sa det.

Complexity is on the one hand something which can be measured by tools to give an objective value of how complex something is. However, this is not how I’ve come to see the word used in my work as a software developers. In this article I will talk about some of the aspects tucked away in the concept labeled complexity. It tends to be used to cover up subjective opinions or believes getting portrayed as objective observations.
