Been a subscriber for a while, and I can't thank you enough for the quality of your channel.

I have a request.

This is an excellent video and highlights a key challenge of communicating to budgetary stakeholders that a solution may 'get something done' but will incur a considerable amount of 'technical debt'. You've treated other topics very well, and was wondering if you could do a video on Technical Debt. This is one of the least understood, but arguably the most important way to get people onboard with any technical change decision-making.

I use a technical debt register that I give rough estimates on single-developer full time equivalent days for an ommitted task. The aim isn't accuracy, it is to get the conversation occurring when project managers or others are faced with huge bills because of their choices, rather than esoteric concepts like SCD maintainance.
