A lot of my own software work has been for very small companies: arts nonprofits, early startups, one-person bootstraps, community orgs that are and always will be small.
These orgs have problems that are very, very different from the problems that, say, Google has. There’s no sense in them inheriting the miserable tech tradeoffs a giant corp faces! Enjoy being small! Do it the simple way! Stay flexible!
