Architecture's Secret Operating System

That's such a great distinction, is like, theory is the operating system and the construction

is the hardware. That's a perfect analogy. Without the OS, the hardware just

sits there. It's inert. It's a pile of concrete and steel. But the theory,

that's the, the constitution for the project. Yeah. It sets the rules.

It says what values this structure has to uphold. And without that, it's just inert.

Conceptually inert. Exactly.
