Hey bro, can I have some antibiotic resistance?

Sure bro, but remember that the heavy metal tolerance gene is a dependency.

Shit, I’m on python 2 but hmrA requires python 3.

    It’s mostly a software development term. Bugs are the most obvious kind of tech debt. They have to be fixed or a product will slowly become unusable over time, so when you release something with bugs you’re incurring “debt” they must be “paid” later by fixing them. A lot of tech debt also involves corner cutting and bad design decisions that are hard to explain briefly.
