Nothing, it seems close enough to most that they actually can’t think about it any other way apart from human.

I hear you, but I disagree. My people are great at slacking me or each other when they need stuff. We have a great collaborative atmosphere. They set up meetings with each other and with me as needed, and I’ve heard over and over that they really like that. I have weekly 1:1 meetings with each of them, and usually we hang up after 15 minutes because they know what they’re doing and can get back to it.

Imagine actually going to daily standup, wow

I made a daily meeting invite, and told my team to never show up to it. Lets them show up to work an hour later since I put it in the calendar for 930-10.

Also my fav OP :)

Rcpp is probably the best thing to ever exist.

I reject tidyverse though

Did you just stop reading there? I was saying those projects should have atomic architectures so that “rewrite small parts when needed” can happen

Boy do I ever disagree with this.

For big projects, with multiple people and man-years of work, sure. Don’t start from scratch. But in my humble opinion, those projects shouldn’t really exist. Instead they should be atomic, made up of small page-length units which individually can be scraped and rebuilt.

For small projects, rewriting is often superb. It allows us to reorganize a mess, apply new knowledge, add neat features and doodads, etc.

How come people use sql instead of just using text files? I just use text files for everything

I do, exclusively

Getting rid of caffeine (decaf still has a little) has been amazing for me.

It’s a global market. The US exports oil. The price would go up.

Bomb Iranian oil fields.

Make gas cost $10 per gallon. Incentivize public transportation and fuel efficient vehicles, simultaneously crippling Iran.

Our lack of healthcare has nothing to do with lack of spending. We spend more on public healthcare per capita than countries with universal public healthcare.

Our problem is lack of price control, not lack of funds.
