This article came to me at the right place, at the right time.

Great lesson on knowing about what matters, and letting go of what doesn't.

I'm thinking Web/Device/Mobile Developers needs to be more aware of what they're sending over the wires.

Maybe an interactive site showing the latencies per kb across regions/networks/devices might do the trick...

Too often I fall into the trap (like I am right now) of thinking of what I should do vs actually doing something.

I want to build, but I'm too afraid of wasting my time, too afraid to fail, and too over-analytical of what exactly I should do. All of this, ironically, does waste my time.

So, I'm writing this to remind myself:
Just build.
Just build for others.
One step at a time.

These are rarely in competition with each other, but when they are... users first.

Please do not sacrifice UX for the sake of DX.

"Good code is legacy code that doesn't get in the way"

What I think about far too much:

- coding "philosophy" or "principles"

- effective knowledge sharing/gathering
