personally I dont see the point and it looks silly. Sometimes things take more time, sometimes releasing frequently is not a good idea because it comes with its own costs and delays. Coding like anything else in life is about critical thinking. Its about sitting down and deciding whats the best course for your project and if the course fails you change it. So I will have to be the only one here to thumb down this. On Wed, Jan 14, 2015 at 6:10 PM, Pablo R. Digonzelli <pdigonzelli@gmail.com> wrote:

Silly is to be tricked by the normal bias of your brain. The point of the text is that you have two gazillion unfinished things and what matters is what you finished instead. Here is a big +1 for that text

I think it has lots and lots of meaning⦠e.g. one can read it as a description how to tackle really large and complex projects: by breaking them into small steps. Or, a lot of the really great people are so good that they never release (or even finish) *anything*, because they know that they could do better. Or, there are people doing absolutely great stuff and then they never show it to anyone. âItâs nothing specialâ. Or there are people who would have the time to contribute a little, but they think that whatever they could do would not be worth it (purely from a time perspective). Or there are those who canât do anything that is not âreinventing everythingâ. Leading to not having anything. Lots of interpretations. Marcus

At a very basic level, it made me move my ass and get things done. Must read once a day, the earliest, the best. Phil
