    How do you know what’s it supposed to do, if no one actually wrote that down, other than

    As a person.
    I would like it to work
    So i can do the things.

    To be fair, at least that’s something…

    Or maybe for testing the documentation is the code. The code does this, write a test that accepts it does this.

    I like the concept of describing things in scenarios and having data objects embedded in the scenarios. I think gherkin if a bit too restrictive, the same way user stories are, but a more natural verbose scenario that was parameterised with variables tied to actual data makes it explicit what is supposed to happen and what data the system will consume, create or manipulate.

    E: there is of course other types of documentation available

    Yeah, I don’t really like the idea of training everyone to be killing machines. But a national program to do all the other things associated with military training, such as fitness and basic survival training seems like a good thing.

    But arguably these are things that could be done in national education programmes anyway. The Tory scumbags are just trying to appeal to bloodthirsty gammons. They have no interest in actually making society a healthier and happier place, they are always only interested in wealth and power.

    Although, there may be a potential pragmatism in being prepared for shit kicking off with Putin. But it can’t be forgotten that they have blame in that rise to power too, taking backhanders and advantage of the right wing populism campaigns Putin’s been running for decades now.

    It’s not really suddenly. They’ve been trying to help Russia from the beginning. The attack by Hamas on Israel was very fortunate for Russia, since the republicans have been able to conflate the two so now the funding is stuck in limbo, funding Israel doesn’t need for their genocide as it happens. Completely coincidentally Iran, who likely helped get arms to Hama’s is a great friend of Russia. Israel being strangely myopic about that attack when they normally have eyes on everything is also very fortunate for Russia. It seems too elaborate for Russia to have orchestrated this in any way, but Putin has proven to be a conniving cunt in the past.
