Writing code is not production, it's not always craftsmanship though it can be, it's design.

If you can't understand the spec for a new technology, don't worry: nobody else will understand it either, and the technology won't be that important.

If something seems possible, that's probably because someone is already doing it. When something seems that it can't possibly work, nobody tries it. Real innovation happens when someone tries anyway, overlooking an obvious flaw, and finds a way to make an idea work.

If your goals is to produce something of permanent value, you start to think differently about you want on the site.

Nothing works better than just improving your product.

Good software, like wine, takes time.

So if you want to get things done, you positively have to understand at any given point in time what is the most important thing to get done right now and if you're not doing it, you're not making progress at the fastest possible rate.
