I recently needed an HDMI cord for a monitor and realized that my cord drawer was accruing technical debt. Whenever I am done with a cord I just throw it in there... it gets all tangled up with all the others. When I inevitably need one of those cords I impatiently pull it out and it makes all the other cords more tangled. Here I am needing an HDMI cable that won't just come out easily, I have to pay off my past laziness. But I have choices/tradeoffs/opportunities here. I can just hurry up and get the minimum untangled and get back to watching TV. I could untangle all of them since untangling one of them will help me untangle the others and wrap and label them. I could just untangle the minimum, but also throw a roll of tape and a marker in there and wrap and label all future cords that go into that drawer, eventually they'll all be nicely wrapped up and well documented. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
