Comment on Ask HN: What Makes Software Great?

Comments

I like the quote “Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.”

I think great software is all about organization, code should be predictable. Legacy code should not become a problem over time, it should provide a solid foundation for growth. Poorly organized code will set you up for failure.
