  1. 01

    Systems are defined by their invariants.

  2. 02

    Access is a first-class concern.

  3. 03

    Data models must enforce structure, not imply it.

  4. 04

    Local constraints yield global coherence.

  5. 05

    Boring infrastructure wins.

  6. 06

    If it can't be audited, it doesn't exist.

  7. 07

    Design for the regulator in the room.
