From time to time, everyone is faced with a problem where the potential solutions are either simple or complex and you must choose one or the other.
I don’t know exactly what this means, but experience tells me that simpler is usually better.
The simpler the solution, the higher the chance of it actually working.
As I look back, the times that I chose the more complicated solution seem to be the times where the plan-of-attack got convoluted somehow and the ultimate solution to the problem got lost somewhere in the blur of life.
Simpler is better.
Or, at least – it seems that way to me in hindsight.

I need more smart friends.
You mean I wasn’t the first one to think of this?
Crap.
