At my first job, the senior guy on my team used to say:

"Software is just like lasagna. It has many layers, and it tastes best after you let it sit for a while".

I still follow this principle years down the line and avoid introducing shiny new things on my projects.

1.0s never land smoothly. That's when the herd of users comes and all the rough edges are actually found. The real 1.0 is 1.1.
