I have become more interested in developing smaller software tools that do fewer things. > To a large extent, I’m leaning towards the “Less is More” or “Worse is Better” philosophy, and I find stoicism and the wabi-sabi concept very appealing.. This philosophical change of mine is not only about software development, but also my daily life. Perhaps this shift in philosophy is somehow related to their leaving the company. Even if it's not, it does sound like a guiding principle toward the next step. I relate to this in my personal and professional life. As I get older, I observe myself getting more bare, gruff, less tolerant of bloat and waste. I did laugh when first read it though, that they aspire toward smaller tools that do fewer things. I don't know about other industries or the arts, but it seemed like something a wise battle-worn software developer would say.
