There is a strong desire in human beings generally—and in IT folk particularly—to organize things. This is not bad. It’s good to keep your socks in your sock drawer and your cheese in the fridge. Putting cheese in your sock drawer, on the other hand, is probably not the best idea.
We can, however, take organization to an extreme. It may not be efficient, for example, to organize your sock drawer by brand, color, and fabric. For one thing, such organization probably won’t help you find the right socks any faster. You’re perfectly able to eyeball all the socks in your drawer just as they are and pick the right one. For another, the time you spend organizing your sock drawer will keep you from doing something more important—like the laundry.
