The choice of language isn't going to help much if the people writing the rusty replacements for decades-old tools don't bother to understand the security issues and attack surfaces that led to the design of those tools in the first place.

Similarly, Linux distributions shipping #screensaver implementations that are essentially nothing but a login-bypass mechanism that wastes CPU/GPU cycles.

5 #laws for founders
1. #ParkinsonsLaw : Time is elastic. Discipline is your edge.
2. #ChestertonsFence : Innovate, yes; but understand what you’re changing.
3. #LawofDiminishingReturns : Don’t brute-force growth. Calibrate it
4. #ParetoPrinciple : Not everything matters equally. Focus sharply.
5. #OccamsRazor : Simple scales. Simple sells. Simple succeeds.

#DumpTrump proposes to abolish the Ministry of Education!
This bold move forces us to reconsider what #education truly represents. Educational institutions aren’t merely bureaucratic structures—they are the pillars upon which our #future is built! As #ChestertonsFence teaches us, we shouldn’t dismantle what we haven’t fully understood; our #traditions hold lessons about our origins and the path ahead.

Modern progress must be rooted in the solid foundations of our past. What do you think?

There exists in such a case a certain institution or law; let us say, for the sake of simplicity, a fence or gate erected across a road.

The more modern type of reformer goes gaily up to it and says, "I don't see the use of this; let us clear it away."

To which the more intelligent type of reformer will do well to answer: "If you don't see the use of it, I certainly won't let you clear it away. Go away and think. Then, when you can come back and tell me that you do see the use of it, I may allow you to destroy it. (g k c) #ChestertonsFence
