    There's a "Curb Your Enthusiasm" episode where Larry David's character donates to a museum with his name on the donation. There's no self deception for him; he wants to do somethin…

    It lessens it for the author because they're looking for validation from someone in some type of way, the same way the breakfast people do. If you're content being someone that nee…

    It's a bit sad that you've taken a wonderful, altruistic act and cheapened it by feeling the need to broadcast it on the internet :(

    No, it's not relevant. There's no considering being done, the feature is being shipped. Please stop with the Rust spam.

    Nah, there's something unique about Rust zealots in this respect. nicoburns comment is completely off topic, and it's extremely obnoxious to see this kind of thing over and over ag…

    That's unfortunate. Try a different dermatologist? I've gone to flatiron dermatology in the past, and they're solid.

    I wish I could upvote this a thousand times. At the end of the day, it's all ego driven development. Nobody wants to think that their job has already been solved, and what's left i…

    Yes, but there at least is some genuine innovation going on. The backend frameworks are just churn for solving the same boring and lucrative business problems in new, fashionable w…

    Obviously you should do what you feel comfortable with, but now is a good time to go the doctor and get that checked out. The numbers are pretty low and stable for the moment. And …

    Alright, I'll bite. Why do you think not breaking users programs is abandoning quality?

    I very well could be wrong, but that's almost completely besides the real point [as well the self diagnosis regarding ADHD]. The amount of anxiety you're experiencing in your day t…

    So what? In the history of Python, there was literally 0 bugs caused by print being a statement. Breaking backwards compatibility for shit like that is amateur hour. edit: And just…

    It sounds like you're experiencing panic attacks.

    Writing some optional, non-essential piece != rewriting a piece that will require taking rust as a dependency for the rest of time. The kernel folks just did a lot of work to remov…

    Right, which is why it's a poor choice for the kernel at this time.

    Comment #23803099

    For the Linux kernel? Absolutely. Rust is way too unstable right now for such an important piece of software. Give it 20 years and a standard, then we can talk.

    Comment #23803079

    I wouldn't be too worried about it. The kernel people aren't going to take a dependency on something that isn't standardized and doesn't have a spec.

    Sure. My point wasn't really whether to write unit tests or not. It's more, do what works for you / your team to enable you to ship consistently. For the OP, spending all of their …

    I don't understand your point. We're specifically talking about a one person company.

    I'm no fan of Amazon, but it's the third most valuable company on the planet. Whatever they're doing is obviously working for them, even if I personally wouldn't want to work there…

    Well, then stop! Delete all the tests right now and do it however you want to do it. The thing about testing that never really gets talked about it is, what's the penalty for regre…

    It doesn't work like that though. You can't ignore the diminishing value of money.
