unfortunately this approach does not scale past single developer or multiple klocs of code unless you're really disciplined, but then wouldn't that cognitive effort be better spent elsewhere?
- marcus_holmes 9y agoI get the impression that the OP wasn't talking about a team environment either? I could be wrong...
- seangrogg 9y agoI've seen multiple klocks of code written in Java and C that are taking minutes to handle database operations, unable to process parallel network requests, and choking on errors. Watching new features get added is exciting in the same way it's ensorcelling to watch someone assemble a house of cards. I'd love a tool that enabled me to spend my cognitive currency how I want to, but so far all I've found are tools that have disguised their expenses in new and interesting ways, like tranches of a collateralized debt obligation.
- keymone 9y agoi don't think i disagree with you and (i think) neither does the author. argument (as i understand it) is that rather than piling on features that don't really fit and have complex interference you could use a better tool.
- tempodox 9y agoI think this is one of the most sensible questions to ask wrt. JS (except where you have no choice but to use it).
