It is orders of magnitude harder to simplify things than it is to make them more complex. I think this skill comes with experience more than anything else.

- hamandcheese 4y agoThere’s a big difference between: - smart person, identifies a problem, wants to solve it with more complexity. - normal person, doesn’t notice a problem (or doesn’t care), doesn’t attempt to address it, creates more incidental complexity. The former is a complexifier. The latter is a typical dev. Typical dev wants to do whatever is easiest. Complexifier goes out of their way to “fix” things.
