The programmers counterintuitive solution

2 years ago

The programmers counterintuitive solution was to replace this full ranking with a limited number of priority uckets.The system was less precise about what to do next but more than made up for it by spending more time making progress.So with your emails, insisting on always doing the very most important thing first could lead to a meltdown.Waking up to an inbox three times fuller than normal could take nine times longer to clear.You be better off replying in chronological order, or even at random!
