Good advice. However, more often than not, the devil lies in the details.

Good advice. However, more often than not, the devil lies in the details.
- mcav 17y agoIt's triage. Usually you'll want to get back to the details and address them at some point. But given finite resources, it's a waste of time to try to dig through details when more pressing issues need attention.
- pablohoffman 17y agoFair enough. But my point was that, sooner or later, you'll need to deal with the details and I've found that is, quite often, the most time consuming part (sometimes you just misjudged which ones where the issues, and which ones the details). You can always delegate the "details", but there's a difference between delegating and deferring (the work for yourself). Knowing what to delegate is very important, of course, which is the main point of edw519's comment, I think.
