May be you got it backwards: people who can't deal with numbers have to stick to the same routine. They can't afford the flexibility, the optimization.

That's what I was thinking too. Perhaps this guy has greater aspirations for his bakery and laying out the foundation like this from day 1 will enable him to grow without many of the pains you might otherwise experience when expanding your business.

  • Nah. I just have a tiny capacity and a very variable order book. If I baked the same thing every day, the wastage would kill me.

    • Just wanted to say I remembered you from your rails blogging days (thanks for those articles and code) and seeing this on r/emacs made me smile.
