# Tradeoffs, tradeoffs...


You live and learn, I make tradeoffs everyday. 

Opportunity costs spring out from every decision, no matter how small, sometimes you have to make bigger choices: like choosing to use Linux exclusively a few years ago.

Was that a tradeoff of immediate to latent productivity? yes. Was it worth it? absolutely. I've yet to do that with _vim_.

I've just come to the realization that the more you know the earlier on, the less those costs.

Applying to Axo is part of that realization :) and I'm glad I'm writing this tonight.
