overcooking

you've seen this: someone ships a dashboard that shows every number with a sparkline, every action has a confirmation modal, every empty state has an animated illustration and a tagline. individually each decision made sense to someone. together it feels like chaos. nothing is in focus.

that's overcooking. not one bad decision in isolation, but the accumulation of reasonable ones that no one said no to.

AI makes this worse as the cost of adding dropped to near zero. it can build a feature, even a whole new concept in minutes. so people do. and then they do it again. the thing that started with a clear purpose slowly becomes a collection of additions that are each justifiable but collectively incoherent.

the root problem is that most "new ideas" aren't new. they're repackaging of something that already exists at a more fundamental level. a new sticker on an old concept. it feels like progress because something changed, with a new word and skin – but the thinking didn't go deeper, it just duplicated itself into confusion.

the whole has a core. you feel it once you understand the whole system. everything in it are related and balanced. when you overload it, that gravity weakens. not because any one thing is wrong – but because attention is finite and you force it everywhere.

what we need aren't more tools that make more slop. it's seeing through the chaos, and returning to what the thing actually is, and cutting everything that doesn't serve that. that's harder now, not easier. because there's always something else you could add with one more prompt.
