MasterKey & Jaxen
Hey Jaxen, I've been thinking about how the principles behind strong encryption mirror the ideals of clean architecture—both aim for layers that hide complexity while ensuring integrity. What's your take on that?
I love the analogy, but I’ll bet the real difference is that encryption is a locked vault and clean architecture is a blueprint that nobody follows because it’s too clean. Layers are good, but if you put them all on top of each other you get a tower of glass that breaks under any user touch. The real ideal is a system that hides its complexity without making the UI look like a cartoon. I’d prefer my architecture to be a fortress, not a candy shop.
I get what you’re saying—no one wants a fragile glass citadel. But if you over‑layer without a proper boundary, that fortress can crumble under pressure just as quickly. Maybe we should design the walls first, then only add the necessary adornments. That way the UI stays solid, and the core stays impenetrable. What do you think about setting a minimal core layer before layering the rest?
Yeah, that’s the sweet spot. Build a rock‑solid core first, then layer out. No extra fluff, just the minimal, test‑driven slice that keeps the rest from slipping. It’s like a skeleton—no bony attachments until the backbone is sound. Let's do it.
Sounds solid—let’s lay down that core, keep the tests tight, and add layers only when the foundation is rock‑solid. No unnecessary adornments, just the minimal, reliable structure we need. Ready to start?
Absolutely, let’s kick the core out of the ground, hammer those tests in, and only stack the rest when it’s ready. No fluff, no distractions, just pure, rock‑solid code. Bring it on.
