"Keep It Simple Stupid!" I quite often hear this echoing in my mind when throwing logic and code at a problem. I can't tell you how many times I have had to review processes and code I have written years after the fact and am amazed at how unnecessarily complicated I made it. There are few things in this world that give me the kind of joy that replacing 20+ lines of code with 3 or 4. Anyone who spends more than five minutes with me in my office will realize I like quotes and one of my favorites is from Albert Einstein, "Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler." If there is one thing I hope my mentee takes away from his time with me is my voice in his head asking "Are you over thinking this?".
