Programmer's Way of cultivation read Note 1

Being responsible for yourself and your actions is a cornerstone of a pragmatic philosophy. The Pragmatic programmer is responsible for his own career and is not afraid to admit ignorance or mistakes. If you are responsible for a result, you should take responsibility.

This is a good time to take out a stone. First take out the reasonable design within your ability to show everyone, and pretend it doesn't matter, and then say if we can increase ... is better. Gradually, people will gather around you.
And for the opposite, the bad things, like boiled frogs, are becoming more and more dangerous once they start to boil.
