Yes! Great post. As Voltaire said: "Perfect is the enemy of good"

I remember David Heinemeier Hansson, the creator of Ruby on Rails, saying that unless you code for peacemakers or self-driving cars, being good enough is just fine.

It doesn't mean that we don't strive for better every time, but chasing perfection will all drive us crazy.
