Design Before You “Minify”

Don Melton:

Then again, what the hell do I know? I’m just an old Web browser guy. So I’ll leave you with this quote, sometimes attributed to Albert Einstein, that I kept in my .plan file back when that was a normal thing to have around:

Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler.

I’m just trying to get people to think a little bit more before they deploy. I certainly wish I had here.

I’m in the same boat as Don — I really should overhaul this site to make it simpler, so it would hopefully load faster.
