Go fly a kite
Matt Sheppard (Oracle Dyn)
Construction on the first bridge across Niagara Falls began by flying a kite to get a string to the other side, which was used to pull a rope—and eventually, other materials—across. Matt Sheppard applies this pattern to software, establishing a thread through a proposed system, building just enough infrastructure to execute the simplest operation possible, and iterating from there.
