This. Developer happiness matters.

  Not nearly so much as customer happiness does.

    Decent developers don't want to work on shit code bases all day long. The application will suffer in the long run.

      Agreed. I'm not going to make any customers happy working on a product if I hate the codebase and the language I'm working in so much I just DGAF.

      This looks like a lie. For the right amount of money, people will work for long periods of time on crap code bases.

        Not sure about that. Most companies biggest problem is finding talent employees and most experienced engineers will not want to work on a Php codebase especially one full of technical debt due to the variety of other options in languages which compile and miss out on a huge percentage of php problems before you even run basic tests.

    i think thats wrong. its mostly "not nearly as much as money does". and money is directly correlated to customer happiness
