...because quality starts in your head
summary
Argues that quality is a mindset, not a process, with concrete workplace examples: a live condom usability demo to show usability versus safety tradeoffs, a client’s €8,000 website that breaks on mobile because a few missing characters, and a social project producing 20 mirrored tags that forced rework. Recommends early customer communication, built-in continuous testing, strict code reviews, sustainable hiring, and treating failures as learning opportunities.
