one of the things i like about working at very small companies is that i don't have to immediately have a solution to everything. i can file an issue and/or mention a bug or issue that i see or foresee when we talk. i can then let it marinate until it either becomes necessary to act on it or i think of a solution and have time to work on it, whichever comes first.

i often think of software as a series of problems. i don't have to worry about solutions initially. when we have polished off solutions to all of the truly immediately important problems - within some reasonable/useful level of engineering tolerances - the software can be thought of as done, for a time. just my opinion.
