The orthogonal features, when combined, can explode into complexity.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I believe consistency and orthogonality are tools of design, not the primary goal in design.
It's always good to take an orthogonal view of something. It develops ideas.
And so from that, I've always been fascinated with the idea that complexity can come out of such simplicity.
Complexity that works is built up out of modules that work perfectly, layered one over the other.
When I was a student and rushing to finish a project, my gut instinct was usually to keep adding all kinds of features. It's a way of papering over the fact that you haven't quite nailed your concept yet.
Occurrences in this domain are beyond the reach of exact prediction because of the variety of factors in operation, not because of any lack of order in nature.
Simplicity does not precede complexity, but follows it.
Another feature that everybody notices about the universe is that it's complex.
Dealing with complexity is an inefficient and unnecessary waste of time, attention and mental energy. There is never any justification for things being complex when they could be simple.
Expansion means complexity and complexity decay.
