Today I found a new Leitz shelf out of luck. Now the mass-used papers have their own shelf, and I could dedicate the other one to plastic envelopes. It is a dream coming true that our home now has an almost infinite supply of paper in all colors. (1/1)
You know it's a framework and not just a library, when you hear engineers present the work using concepts they invented, as a way to actualize their mental model
Perfect software offers a different kind of value: Sufficiency. It's the virtue of requiring less, not because you lack ambition, but because you have met the need. While growth demands a constant state of hunger, sufficiency offers satiety. And perfect software delivers that because the moment you deem something perfect, you become content.
Perfect Software: I mean “perfect” in the way I mean a “perfect coffee”. There’s no such thing as the world’s best coffee. There’s only your coffee, with the perfect amount of sugar, the perfect milk-to-coffee ratio, the perfect roast, served at the perfect temperature, in a perfect cup.
Mini-frameworks is a realization of the creator's mental model, but it's not everyone's mental model. People who tend to create mini-framework are often more opinionated, which is a good thing by itself. But when you create things for others to use, too opinionated can be a bad thing. I would even say that sometimes (not always), creating a mini framework directly reflects the author's ego, and they chose a framework because a tiny library don't recognize the "significance of the work".
