I started learning Python some 7 months after starting to learn C (my first language). I didn't really grok logical program structure until the burden of mem management was behind me.

So, relieving that burden allowed me a playground to pseudocode a program and then translate that logic to a more optimized inplementation.

I still use that strategy in forming mental models.

But now it's a matter of placing weak joints on a pipeline and accepting bottlenecks where they arise.

Can I MVP in 2-6 weeks on those 10 (the startup) alpha users? Fine. Can I leverage my engineering strengths and understand replacement priorities? That's my goal and I run very far from startups that want to build panickedly with toothpicks and glue.
