The spec is easy; implementation is where problems live

Quote

It happens gradually than suddenly. I think, because once and I'm glad, I'm glad it's going slow. Because we get to learn and see what's wrong as we go.

Summary

Adoption happens gradually, then suddenly. Going slow is good because you learn what's wrong as you go. A spec can be dead simple; nearly all the problems come from implementation.

    The spec is not the problem. The spec was so easy. And all of the problems come from implementation.

    this is another reason why it's good on occasion to slow down and go at a slower pace. Because sometimes you can't anticipate these sorts of things over time.

    Yes. The last line of this, this really comes down. All of this really comes down to implementation.
