 We should reduce the cognitive load in our projects as much as possible.
 
-When reading code, you put things like conditional logic, data structure state and interfaces into your head. The average person can hold roughly [four such facts](https://github.com/zakirullin/cognitive-load/issues/16) in working memory.
