Technical debt

The long-term constraints that build up from quick fixes, slowing everything down over time.

Technical debt is what builds up when quick, short-term fixes harden into long-term constraints. It rarely breaks a system outright; it just slows everything down. Over time, each change gets harder to make and the outcome of touching anything gets less predictable, the same way a small loan compounds if you only ever pay the interest.
