Annika Backstromimportant programming lesson number 1: be stupid and lazy
🥭🍛 harpy princess@annika my engineering mentor called it efficient 😂
Shekhinah@annika "You will cultivate the three virtues of great programmers: Laziness, impatience, and hubris"
Max Lambertini@CharredStencil @annika Yay, perl!
Tak!@annika I get what people mean when they say this, but it's one of my peeves, because we have _so_ many problems in software that are caused by programmers being lazy (poor testing, poor documentation, poor localizability, poor accessibility, ...).
@Tak Agreed, if you're skipping features, that goes beyond lazy. And documentation and especially tests enable future laziness, and shouldn't be skimped on!
