Arthur C. Clarke: Superiority (1951)

The Soviet take on this can be found here: http://militera.lib.ru/research/suvorov12/06.html

I read the story's Norden as a jab at the Norden bombsight, another high-tech weapon that failed to improve real-world results: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norden_bombsight#Postwar_analy...

"Done is better than perfect"

The problem is, we forget the failures and the pain and remember the succeses. Nobody remembers the german attempt to get the bomb. Everbody remembers Trinity.

LOL! Is the submitter trying to use this as a thinly veiled parable for JavaScript Fatigue?
