your far more likely to die by not shipping things early than by having to refactor occasionally.
Know your org. A startup has very different priorities than a bank, for example.
Small projects need different conventions than big projects, internal need diff than external, 200 user apps need diff than "web scale", etc. I'm more careful now to state the assumed environment because one size doesn't fit all. And fit your org, not your resume. Buzzword oriented programming is selfish; I've seen it make screwball messes.
