They're simply not going to be able to get that work done in the timeframe they said it'd be done. They're going to proudly claim that they've shipped it but when they release it it'll have the narrowest possible scope you can imagine - actually, no, it'll be narrower than even that. It's going to be missing major functions because reddit simply has no idea the things they need to put in, much less how to accomplish it.

Plus it's going to be super-bug-filled. But they're going to declare "Mission Accomplished", and say that anyone who doesn't like the new app is just anti-reddit, doesn't know understand what they've released, doesn't understand how to work things, etc, etc.

Fuck spez.
