@hipsterelectron i hope that after all this people will go "hey maybe writing documentation wasn't that bad, maybe we should keep doing that"
@SRAZKVT @hipsterelectron hope springs eternal, I suppose.
One of the team leads at work, who doesn’t bother to support my efforts to improve things, once told me that he was on a contract that had documentation and testing and many of the things we neglect as conditions. He said it was great. Features went in on time; onboarding was shorter, etc. Then he said that he wouldn’t support us doing it without a contractual obligation—even though it was inarguably better. Eyes wide open just choosing to do a bad job and suffer for it.
@c0dec0dec0de @hipsterelectron lots of people consider it to be a chore, something nice to have but not necessary
doing it is your job as a developer
@c0dec0dec0de @SRAZKVT fuck yes we live in hell here this is hell here
