  See how well he cut cope to keep things simple? "Works on mobile" was simple unnecessary complexity :) Only half-joking btw. I thought the article was way more about "cut scope ruthlessly so you can use simpler tools" than it was about "use the simplest tool for the job".

    FTA: > what are you willing to sacrifice to achieve simplicity? I'm willing to sacrifice a website that tries to keep state up to date without requiring a page refresh so that I can avoid all the complexity and bugs which come from it.

      For many, probably most, websites this is fine.

  Thanks - needs an overflow:hidden in the CSS. Will fix :)

    And the fix was probably editing 1 line of code then running `git pull` on the server. If even. That's simplicity!

      Precisely :)
