    It is, but it’s also extremely common. Startups are usually in the business of shipping fast and they take many shortcuts, including failing to hire anyone with a security background (yes, even basic stuff), doing any kind of code review, etc. you have small teams of maybe 1 or 2 seniors plus a few young ins who can code and ship fast, and that they will do.

    I think the first paragraph you quoted does really tell the story. There are usually no assumptions of those things. To assume something you need to consider it first.

      I mean, isn’t an assumption a shortcut of considering and not consideration itself? I still stand by that such devs should not be writing anything remotely important.
