"A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked. The inverse proposition also appears to be true: A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be made to work. You have to start over, beginning with a working simple system." - John Gall

    @ItsaMeTuni Linux is a pretty damn big system built entirely out of tiny pieces on top of each other, and it isn't an unmanageable mess.
