7. “You started out pretty much by the compass,
nding, or endeavoring to nd the best road, if
roads existed. You could not tell beforehand how
long your trip would take ... or whether, in
reality, you would ever reach your destination.”
Lincoln Highway Guidebook, 1918
21. All the script loaders, build tools, inheritance
systems, array utilities, templating
frameworks, and data abstractions in the world
are meaningless if we don’t help people
understand how and why to use them.
23. libraries are naturally hesitant:
there will (eventually) be winners & losers
social rewards for releasing new things,
not improving existing things
is it up to users?
26. is it designed to play well with others?
what problem does this solve that hasn’t been
solved already?
why is starting over better than working with
what exists?
does the author know what they don’t know?
