FYI, The word you're looking for is idempotence (EYE-dem-poh-tense).
- hnbear 3y agoYes, autocorrect.
- smelendez 3y agoThank you. I thought this was some reference to giving people config options that don’t actually do anything.
- hnbear 3y agoNo, just phone autocorrect, and too late to edit it. Typing too fast and not paying attention. Although I do like your interpretation. Maybe I’ll call poorly implemented or useless functions impotent from now on.
