Qualche giorno fa stavo parlando (e scrivendo) del concetto di «good enough», così come lo descriveva Wired già nel 2009 e, guarda caso, ieri sera, guardando il film BlackBerry (2023) di Matt Johnson, mi sono imbattuto in questo dialogo fra i protagonisti:

Mike: So, there's a reason why your intercom is emitting white noise. It's because it was manufactured in China by engineers who didn't care, and now every office in the world has to suffer an annoying hiss, a blinking red light, fifteen different power cords that are utterly incompatible with one another. So, uh. We are not doing that. We are not just adding to the hiss. I will build a prototype, but I'll do it perfectly or I don't do it.

Jim: Mike, are you familiar with the saying «Perfect is the enemy of good?»

Mike: Well, «Good Enough» is the enemy of humanity.
