I decided on my values because of bcantrill's talk. Everyone should watch it.
A more complete list of my values is at https://git.yzena.com/Yzena/Yc/src/branch/master/docs/adl/0000-values.md https://git.yzena.com/Yzena/Yc/src/branch/master/docs/adl/00... .
- andai 2y agoCould you elaborate on value #0 being users (and what it means to prioritize users over programmers)?
- gavinhoward 2y agoGood question. I will add that. It means that users' convenience comes before my convenience. (I am the programmer in question.) This means that if there is something I could do to make things easier on users, I do it, even if it is a lot more work for me. An example is https://git.yzena.com/Yzena/Yc/commit/c9086af225d42b2f125959a384706c08a7f102c0 https://git.yzena.com/Yzena/Yc/commit/c9086af225d42b2f125959... . Comments in Yao do not use the `#` character, but I added the shebang to the parser specially so that scripts could be run just like any others scripts.
- timeon 2y agoThis is nice to see. I often came across opposite sentiment here. "Dev time is precious, user is OK with un-performant/etc. software."
