Kitchen Practical and Coding Practices
summary
Lillian Moller Gilbreth measures that an Edwardian kitchen forces two miles to bake a cake, and she invents conveniences like wall switches and foot‑operated bins that cut wasted motion; the same lesson applies to coding: arrange your IDE around the hot paths, use the kitchen triangle idea to reduce transit between files and tools, add linters and automated checks as guard rails, instrument changes, measure effects, iterate, and be ready to roll back when metrics don’t improve.
