Write test, not code.


Specifically, write tests that identify disposable code. More specifically, you hopefully wrote some disposable code that is a modular extension of something close to the core. Write tests that demonstrate which of those deserves to be core, and which is necessary for a requirement but disposable. Since the article brings up shared apis, hopefully when you arrive on a new project, those are well understood as requirements paired with test cases. Repeat in the opposite direction in dependent projects.
