For some reason this quote by Carmack stands out for me:
> "it is often better to go ahead and do an operation, then choose to inhibit or ignore some or all of the results, than try to conditionally perform the operation."
I'm not the audience for this topic, I do javascript from a designer-dev perspective. But I get in the weeds sometimes, maxing out my abilities and bogged down by conditional logic. I like his quote it feels liberating... "just send it all for processing and cherry-pick the results". Lightbulb moment.
