I believe it’s exactly the opposite, life is too short to wait around for stable software.

Don’t expect code to be like a cathedral that can stand the test of time, think of it more like an adhoc bazaar where you can quickly setup shop and start making money. Yea sometimes it will not work right or break, but even physical things in this world that people depend on are also shitty and break. Shitty things are just part of the imperfect human condition, and we must live our lives oscillating between stability and instability, until of course we die and it all means nothing in the end.
