Life hack: give yourself 8 to 12 hours of alone time in the morning to mentally prepare for the day.

@geoffreylitt I think CA would say the problem isn’t postmodernism or modern art but architects thinking their job is to make ✌️Art✌️ of any sort, when their job is to design spaces that humans want to be in

@hanbzu Some key questions I go back and forth on are: (1) should this be part of the relay server, or a totally separate thing? And (2) should it be totally generic, like the relay, or should it be optimized for a particular CRDT (eg automerge or crdx)

[Herb Caudill @herbcaudill]

@hanbzu Hey! Yeah, I’ve thought about it a bunch but haven’t built anything yet. I think it’s a key bit of infrastructure that we’re still missing!

Maybe your codebase and technical choices aren’t the only thing holding you back. There are probably assumptions someone made long ago about the problem space that could bear rethinking.

[Herb Caudill @herbcaudill]

This is good advice. A third option that I think is often overlooked is to leave thing 1 in place, while starting *completely* over with a thing 2 that approaches the original problem with a truly blank slate. A couple of examples here: https://t.co/vXdk0NzEX8

If a rewrite is truly required, then do it gradually and do it in production. Don't downplay complexity that is inherent to the software's use cases.

@migueldeicaza Super useful and so elegantly simple

“A good morning window looks out on some kind of constant object or growing thing, which reflects the changes of season and the weather, and allows a person to establish the mood of the day as soon as he wakes up.”

Rest In Peace, Christopher Alexander.
