"Get the domain model out of your head. Get it out of external docs. Get it out of the unit tests. Put it right into the code that represents it. Let the compiler validate the model that you’ve designed."

THIS! 💯

The reason you're angry at your #computer is because a few people have decided to put short-term profits over long-term #ux and #empathy towards the people who use it!

Marketing people should be let anywhere near the software versions!

Windows: 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10
Unity: 5.6, 2017.1, ..., 2022.3, 6.0
iOS: 18, 26

Now one guy at Unity (me) has to change iOS min version check to also include check for non-existent 19-25 range. Hopefully it is not me in the future who'll have to deal with those skipped version somehow coming to existence.

I find this kind of stuff super fascinating! 🤓

You can recognize/apply these concepts everywhere:

Also in software dev:
Not properly fixing something, but instead do a workaround:

Manifest dysfunction:
Might be harder to extend in the future.

Latent function:
If it was properly fixed, the software would have become 2x faster, because the actual error has manifested itself in the execution of unnecessary logic.

Not doing unit-/integration testing is not a strategy - it's a clusterfuck!

Code comments should explain WHY, not WHAT. If you have to explain what the code does, it probably needs to be clearer. Save comments for business logic, edge cases, and non-obvious decisions. #Coding#SoftwareDevelopment
