Out of context advice
December 17th, 2007 by WalterTrying stuff is cheaper than deciding whether to try it. (Compare the cost of paying and feeding someone to do a few weeks of P* hacking to the full cost of the meetings that went into a big company decision.)Don’t overplan something. Just do it half-assed to start with, then throw more people at it to fix it if it works.

My advice: don’t fix, restart.
If it starts working “at all” then then it’s worth doing right the second time.
Which means you can index off of zero and do it right the “first” time.
(Wow, that reminds me of just “say” no).
