I like this article & agree with the premise, however...
> I have created a large number of small web sites, “applications”, and libraries that I consider finished.
The author then links to a JSON Notes website where it says on the first page:
> It does not (yet) work well on mobile devices.
Yet? Finished?
> Don't mention accessibilty [sic]. I really want it to be good, but I made this for me in a few hours. I'll try one day to make it better.
One day make it better? Finished?
> I also don't know how many notes you can store [...] I don't know what happens when you run out of space!
I don't think this sounds finished at all, or even useful beyond a demo of some sort.
I'd wager that most software is finished. The sheer number of software packages on embedded devices that will never need an update has me convinced.
