Pedro’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for Domain-Driven Design Distilled

Domain-Driven Design Distilled by Vernon Vaughn

1 highlight

Questions about whether design is necessary or affordable are quite beside the point: design is inevitable. The alternative to good design is bad design, not no design at all. —Book Design: A Practical Introduction by Douglas Martin

“Napoleonic naval wargames are less satisfying because so much of an encounter involves sailing in parallel lines while players roll dice at each other - and then the British win.”
― Rick Priestley, Tabletop Wargames: A Designers’ and Writers’ Handbook

“The fascination of what's difficult has dried the sap out of my veins and rent spontaneous joy and natural content out of my heart.”
