Watching Tulsa King with Sylvester Stallone on Amazon and he just said;

β€œForm follows function” which made me smile…

FFF is a design principle that implies the shape or appearance of an object or building should be based on its intended purpose.

Food for thoughtπŸŒͺ️ :

Hitchens's razor asserts β€œthe burden of proof regarding the truthfulness of a claim lies with the one who makes the claim, & if this burden is not met, the claim is unfounded, & its opponents need not argue further in order to dismiss it.

hmmm ?

Don’t ask me why, I find myself reading the Code of #Hammurabi- A King who enforced a law(196) :An Eye for an Eye.

Law 229 is seriously harsh. However consider code 233 as part of large IT contracts - would weed out some large consultancies in the bidding process ?

Earlier this year I spent 45 mins looking at the original source code of MS-DOS after digging out the old manuals - thought I would match the syntax to the code.

Came across this from an old slide deck, used as part of a wider conversation, I used in 2016 to discuss the architectural mindset and then presented in Feb 2017.

Provides something to think about.
