This is where good logging helps. The lifehack is to throw all your spices in a box and only pull hthem out when you need them and then leave them on the rack.

This is where good logging helps. The lifehack is to throw all your spices in a box and only pull hthem out when you need them and then leave them on the rack. Then throw away any spice you haven't used in n months and add it to a blacklist. The ones you use frequently should be prominently displayed and texted with extra care and possibly set up for autorenewal from the grocery. Only introduce new spices when there's a recipe, and buy just the amount you need. So too with code. Log your code paths, prune little used features, optimize the hell out of the most frequently used ones, introduce features sparingly and with purpose... I like this spice metaphor, thabks for it.
