I was recently told a brain hack: If I declare: "I can do it in X (>1) cuts, and I'm sure that's the minimum" challenge myself by "But others can do it in Y (< X) ". This forces me to think outside of my mental comfort zone youtu.be/zBmy6c8lMHw Doesn't that apply here?

“If we apply our creativity, we can release value-creating software after only a few percent of its eventual development cost. …The sooner we get feedback from real usage, the less time/money/opportunity we spend on behavior that doesn’t matter” @KentBeck tidyfirst.substack.com/p/con…

Let me point out that for many existing applications "easy" is a huge underestimation. I.e. it can be complex and costly. In many cases it's far easier and cheaper to optimise the existing infrastructure/application.

While I picked SQL Developer (with the @MethodR Trace Extension!) I'd say that it's really a pretty even mix of @OracleSQLDev and @oraclesqlcl with a smattering of EM Cloud Control thrown in for good measure.

New “Faster” is at amzn.to/3HZwGDb now, but weirdly listed as “Hardcover $83.99 (2 New from $32.99).” Not sure what’s going on there, but the “correct” list price is $32.99.

My favorite features: Tufte-inspired striping, and sticky table headers for HTML5 profiler reports. Oh, and no more Java finicky-ness! @MethodR
