Was overwhelmed by a large problem.

Broke it up into small problems.

Now overwhelmed by large number of small problems.

When "I contain multitudes" meets Conway's Law things turn grim.

I am become Org Chart.

Touched grass* and realized the problem was silly.

No software was written today. Please clap.

@deech this is increasingly what I am learning about software work

@deech The circle of live. 😄

@deech oh and some of those small problems inevitably turn out to be bigger than you thought the original problem was

@deech oh, I do sympathise! Mind you, I'm pretty easily overwhelmed these days.

@deech it's like monolith vs microservices :)
