Fancy: Tacos

Intellectual Properties

There are all sorts of bright and shiny objects that sound fancy and complex. But nearly all of this stuff just doesn't work. What does work tends to be simple—but simple does not mean easy. Yet if you commit to the above principles and practices it goes such a long way.
