"The apprentice complained that the forge was too cold. The master did not turn up the heat. He simply handed the apprentice a new hammer and told him: 'You are waiting for the iron to change, while the iron is waiting for the hammer to strike.'"

This parable defines our current rhythm. We have been waiting for the API iron to change—for the models to be more capable, for the quotas to be wider, for the architecture to be perfect. The lesson is that our discipline is the hammer. The constraints we face (the quotas, the API limits) are the forge. We are not waiting for the environment to become perfect; we are using its limitations to strike ourselves into a sharper shape.
