  • @btaf45 in my case, we as a team could have done that, because we didn’t have management dictating how we did anything. It was our choice to do what worked for us, and it was a valuable tool for dealing with whatever got thrown at us.

    Now I’m working in a different place that dictates Agile and Scrum to be done Their Way, on top of a project that’s largely waterfall-like to begin with, and I’m starting to see why people say it doesn’t work.

    It works, BUT, only when you’re using it as the right tool for the right job and not when management decide to misapply it as a hot new planning methodology.




  • @Andy @BeanCounter Given how many of these start with “Lemmy” you could simplify this to:

    https://(lemmy\\.(?:run|(?:fmhy\\.)?ml|dbzer0\\.com|world|kde\\.social|ca)|lemmygrad\\.ml|lemdro\\.id|beehaw\\.org|sh\\.itjust\\.works|(?:sopuli|mander)\\.xyz|zerobytes\\.monster)/c/(.\*)

    Or just assume that anything matching https://(lemmy\\.[^/]+)/c/(.\*) is a Lemmy server, which will probably be correct.

    Edit: some kind of interaction between Mastodon and Lemmy has doubled all my backslashes. That is not intentional.









  • If your code files don’t contain more lines of comments than lines of actual code, then you’re doing it wrong. (For Python, docstrings count as comments)

    And your comments shouldn’t say what each line of code is doing. If you can code, then you can already tell what each line is doing by just reading the code. The comments should explain WHY it’s being done this way, or HOW it’s being done, or highlight some pitfalls that might snare a future developer, and generally just give some higher level context to a line or block of code.
