"The reason writing a good four-page memo is harder than 'writing' a twenty-page PowerPoint is because the narrative structure of a good memo forces better thought and better understanding of what's more important than what.""写好一份四页备忘录比'写'二十页 PPT 更难，因为好备忘录的叙事结构会逼出更好的思考、更清楚地分辨什么比什么更重要。"— Jeff Bezos,《Amazon 2017 致股东信》
RFC 文化：让决定在写作与评论中成型
RFC Culture — Decisions That Form In The Open
RFC设计文档异步评审
一句话原则
RFC（Request for Comments）/ 设计文档是一份公开、可异步评论、有明确生命周期的提案。它把"少数人在会议室拍板"变成"全员可参与、留痕的决策过程"——也是规模化对齐的最低成本方式。
名家原话
"The most important section… is the one that describes considered alternative designs and trade-offs. Many design decisions are easier to understand when reading about which alternatives were explored and why they were not chosen.""最重要的章节……是描述'考虑过的替代方案与取舍'的那一节。很多设计决策，只有读到'探索了哪些替代、为什么没选'时才真正好懂。"— Malte Ubl,《Design Docs at Google》(2020)
"We will keep a collection of records for 'architecturally significant' decisions… Each record describes a set of forces and a single decision in response to those forces. We will keep ADRs in the project repository.""我们为'架构上重要'的决定保留一组记录……每条记录描述一组当时的约束力，以及针对它们做出的一个决定。ADR 就放在项目代码库里。"— Michael Nygard,《Documenting Architecture Decisions》(2011)
"When you're operating on the maker's schedule, meetings are a disaster. A single meeting can blow a whole afternoon, by breaking it into two pieces each too small to do anything hard in.""当你处于创造者时间表上时，会议是灾难。一场会就能毁掉整个下午——把它切成两半，每半都小到做不成任何难事。"— Paul Graham,《Maker's Schedule, Manager's Schedule》(2009)
