I could have slightly changed the traditional “Keep it simple, stupid !” into a much smarter “Keep it stupidly simple !”
I am still amazed how simply changing the place of a word in an expression can make a world of difference ! To be perfectly accurate, I should have written Keep it stupid simple… OK, I admit it, but still…
It’s the same in French, mind you… which is another reason why I LOVE languages… isn’t it fun ?
I admit that it’s more advanced than I’d like it to be.
I’m not into language subtleties in the programs I propose, more into simplification, pruning what’s not really necessary.
That’s why I actually changed the Stupidly into Super… KEEP IT SUPER SIMPLE… that sounds just perfect 😉
But maybe simplification needs a subtle knowledge of the language machinery to keep its coherence and its backbone !
