complicated

Yeah, people are complicated. In the Mr. Gates' case, maybe that's not such a bad thing.

Don't make things any more complicated than they need to be. [Late edit: I didn't think I needed to make the first point, but I clearly did need to.

Everyone hates how complicated banking is, right? Let's go to the website to find out more.

All those claims are a lot more complicated than that! Not to mention it makes it sound like Ortiz was cooking this all up behind closed doors and everyone else was shocked!

The more complicated the feature, the more likely it's going to be closed. The more time spent on closed features, the less time is available for open ones.

But since the code was slightly complicated I wanted at least to get the initial version done before I left.

But life is more complicated than that. And life is a series of tradeoffs and a constant balancing act between doing what is best for us right now versus what is best for the future.

We get more complicated and it becomes harder to read us. Confessions that made sense as we were figuring stuff out start to seem a lot more demonstrative and overwrought.

They remarked how they spent a couple of days looking over the system which was complicated and creaky, they couldn't figure it out so they wrote a new system. Yup, and they committed that.

It's more complicated than that, and it's hard to answer here. Basically -- if you're building something big and complicated and you should know exactly how it's going to work, a big written spec really helps.

IPOs are a complicated business. They're possible because of the finance industry as well.

So I'm surprised that a simple thing like putting something on top of the other got to be so complicated, well, you can't have it all, nothing is perfect </rant>

Its fairly complicated and even those of us who were systematically taught these things at school take years to internalise it. Don't downplay education.

Ruby, on the other hand, is a complicated, ugly language. But that complexity allows you to write really clean, nice, easy-to-use libraries.

It's much more complicated than any of the other escapements, and has whole books written about it, and yet is the simplest mechanism once you figure out how it ticks. It quite literally only touches the oscillator once an oscillation.

In particular, it is funny how programmers, who make their living by controlling complicated systems, jump to the conclusion that every complicated system is trivially subject to human control. I had a professor once put it this way: disease is just that -- a dis-ease.

We're still figuring out how these fascinatingly complicated machines work - they act differently in different cultures, in different sentiments, and under different geopolitical constraints. When they work...

One of the easiest things to do in poetry is to lose the reader--a great poet can put an incredibly complicated multilayered concept onto a small amount of paper--and require a graduate-level understanding from the reader to understand it. Similarly, one can very easily make Scala into an exercise in unpacking So isn't that a bad thing?

Onions are more complicated than you think. Before you remove the onions you must understand what they are actually doing in your recipe, not merely what you think they are doing... or you must be prepared to find out. Because even very tiny systems are generally too complicated for you to fully understand, you usually have to settle for science: You must have good enough test coverage to detect any breakage as soon as possible after the onions go out, so that you may frantically throw the onions back in and then go back to the drawing board.
