Mnmlst Web

A website with the main purpose of having people read content would best serve its readers with almost nothing else but what’s needed for the reading experience.

Strip a site of all its distraction, cruft, gimmicks, promotions, advertising, social sharing and more... and all you have is the pure reading experience.

A minimalist website. Perfect for the readers, which is perfect for the writer. Not so perfect for advertisers

10 Modern Software Over-Engineering Mistakes

Engineering is more clever than Business? The House (Business) Always Wins.
Reusable Business Functionality? Prefer Isolating Actions than Combining.
Everything is Generic? Duplication is better than the wrong abstraction.
Shallow Wrappers? Wrappers are an exception, not the norm. Don’t wrap good libraries for the sake of wrapping.
Applying Quality like a Tool? Always take a step back and look at the macro picture. Concepts need shift in Mindset. Cannot be applied blindly like tools.
Overzealous Adopter Syndrome? TL;DRs should not be used everywhere.
–ity? Don’t let -ities go unchallenged. Clearly define and evaluate the Scenario/Story/Need/Usage.
In House “Inventions”? Reuse. Fork. Contribute. Reconsider.

Continuously eliminate anything that isn’t adding value and only work on what we absolutely need to be doing at this moment in time.

Partially done coding eventually abandoned during the development process is waste
Extra processes and features not often used by customers are waste
Waiting for other activities, teams, processes is waste
Defects and lower quality are waste
Managerial overhead not producing real value is waste
