lean thinking
I think a good test of whether you truly love simplicity is whether you are able to remove things you have added, especially code you’ve written, even when it is still providing value, because you realise it is not providing enough value.
Another test is what you are tempted to do when a problem arises with some of the complexity you’ve added. Is yo... See more

Luke Plant • No one actually wants simplicity
An issue I tend to see in my travels through the world of software engineering is over-engineering. Shocking, I know. I’m not the first developer to point this out, nor will I be the last.

Então Brent e eu pegamos tesouras, fita adesiva, cola e post-its. No fim das contas, você realmente aprendeu tudo o que precisa saber no jardim de infância.

Essa é uma alusão divertida aos materiais simples que não apenas o Scrum, mas o kanban, o painel de indicadores, o Kaizen e tantas outras ferramentas de melhoria contínua precisam. Com pouco — só o que aprendemos na pré-escola, é possível alcançar resultados incríveis.

Excellent text on the need to keep things simple when talking about software development (although also applicable in other areas)
A lot of developers want simplicity in the same way that a lot of clients claim they want a fast website. You respond “OK, so we can remove some of these 17 Javascript trackers and other bloat that’s making your website horribly slow?” – no, apparently those are all critical business functionality.

I think the legendary Bob Ross said it best:
He was talking about layering colors while painting, which in certainly more permanent than most software, but it still works wonderfully to guide us as developers. Tackle each task as you go, don’t increase your own overhead unless it... See more
Just remember that you can always add more, but you can’t take it away.

Deliver the Bare Minimum
I once had to figure out how much data storage my office could save by erasing old news articles. Users told me that they did not want anything erased, in case they needed it in the future.

Esta é uma observação fantástica em termos de 5S Digital. A primeira coisa que nos vem à mente quando alguém fala em apagar nossos arquivos, documentos, plantinhas, fotos, etc é que “vamos precisar disso um dia, então é melhor manter just in case”. Mas na prática, a teoria é outra.
