For the longest time, Linus's dictum "Talk is cheap. Show me the code" held. Now that's fallen! New rules for the new world are needed..
- aarestad 11mo ago“code is cheap, show me the talk” - ie “show me you _understand_ the ‘cheap’ code”
- svantana 11mo agoDoesn't work in this case because the 'talk' (github PR comments) is also computer generated. But in person (i.e. at work) it's a good strategy
- Cthulhu_ 11mo agoI don't think it's fallen, but if the code is 13K LOC and written without any prior planning, nobody will read it.
