Guido van Rossum: Skunkworks Design Philosophy

  • Borrow ideas whenever it makes sense 
  • As simple as possible, but no simpler (Einstein)
  • Do one thing well (UNIX)
  • Don’t fret about performance (fix it later)
  • Go with the flow (don’t fight the environment)
  • Perfection is the enemy of the good
  • Cutting corners is okay (get back to it later)
