Simple Made Easy β†’

July 15, 2016 β€’ #

An entertaining talk from Rich Hickey, creator of the Clojure programming language. He talks about the value of simplicity in software design, and spends a decent amount of time refining the semantic differences between β€œsimple” and β€œeasy”. My biggest takeaway: simple is objective, easy is relative.

Rich Hickey on simplicity

It gets pretty technical in the CS realm, but good principles for building anything.
