not a single app has ever been shut down because of an unnecessary clone or copy but plenty have been killed off due to high maintenance cost – and even more due to increased complexity that led to unmanageable problems, the kind that were solved ions ago using some ts or python library.

there's no point in being afraid of using Strings instead of &strs. in the vast majority of cases, you only need to keep in mind usability of your creations.

can you defend those decisions you've made?

were you supposed to make them supportable only by you?

we all know that these kinds of questions mark the no-man's-land, and the answer is always “do better”.

but if that always was the right decision, wouldn't the successful cases be more popular?

tons of great engineering choices were made, implemented, tested and verified – only to rot on a dead gitlab instance never to see a developer again.

do what you want need to solve the problem [in time].

trade all the good and bad practice you must to make it work, and never listen to those guys from the PR comments – they just want to tick their box and go home.

never write python in c plus plus, don't clone where it's easy to pass a reference, comply with every warning from all the tools that you can confidently set up. but fuck – sometimes you just to rsync something and it doesn't require burning a whole day of your life doing it the “devops way”

колись археологи відкопають твій код і не знайдуть жодної причини для його існування окрім ритуалу минулих. не давай археологам причину пояснювати знахідки ритуалами, вони й так ніхуя більше не роблять.

але перетворювати масив чисел в джсон щоб потім цей джсон рядок кодувати в байти щоб уже їх зберегти в роксдб це уже ПІЗДА

i am ashamed to only have discovered recently that STM32 is an italo-french product because i always assumed it was some generic american design built in china or something like that

this is the first time i've seen it phrased well – Left to Right Programming

and of course people still want to write python in rust

if err := foo(); err != nil {
return err
}
