Small is good. For one thing, small projects can be simple.

…when delivery takes decades, the unpredictable becomes inevitable.

Modularity is a clunky word for the elegant idea of big thing made from small things.

If you want to start an avalanche big enough to change the world, government may have to help push the first boulder.

That’s the model we need: ‘many small things’ manufactured at scale and assembled like Lego, click, click, click.

When small can scale up and become huge fast, small experiments have huge potential.

Heuristics are fast and frugal rules of thumb used to simplify complex decisions.

Heuristics are often tacit and need to be deliberately teased out before they can be shared verbally.

Almost any nightmare you can imagine can happen – and has happened – during delivery.

…forget about forecasting risk; go directly to mitigation by spotting and eliminating dangers.
