While looking for the source of another quote (something along the lines of “If it takes you too long, you're probably doing it wrong”, which I recall having picked up in the Rails community (if you recognize it, please let me know)) I found the following bold statement. We're not talking science here, we're talking software development (actually this guy is talking Java Spring development):
> “If something is too complex to understand, it must be wrong”
from Arjen Poutsma
Some background on this quote can be found on this Xebia website.
Yep, I'm working on a project that seems to have grown way too complex for what it actually should have been.
Happy coding ;)
