Lead Business Intelligence Engineer, Study Groups
In high jump, there is a distinction between maximum speed and optimal speed. A faster maximum raises your optimal, but jump at your true maximum and your mechanics break before you ever leave the ground. A successful jump is not your peak output. It is the fastest approach you can convert.
I believe most engineering problems work the same way. The best solution is not the most ambitious one. It is the most ambitious one whose mechanics hold: that ships and holds up under the weight of real-world dynamics.
I pride myself in finding this intersection.
