Because frankly, too much quality is not necessary, in many many cases. To know when you should or should not emphasize quality over quantity and speed, to meet a certain financial objective, is actually harder than writing quality software

AFAIK, Java's native HMR is not built on dynamic classloaders, but using a separate technology built into the JVMs debugger support, called HotSwap. You can only replace (certain) function bodies with it. To get around these restrictio

That, and I start the line with /*, write the where clause first, and immediately before I execute the query I check the db host. Oh, and I absolutely refuse to do anything but the most critical stuff against prod on Fridays.

You might mean that with "time", but I think recursiveness with a delay is the critical part (and to some extend, is achieved with spatiality).

Because that is just not how negotiations with (or between) big companies work. There are all kinds of customizations to standard contracts for them. From tweaks to liability, to changes in responsibilities, guarantees, insurances, etc etc.

Typically, that happens at the top layer. The API, the UI, etc. All layers in between don't care, and should not care, about this, other than correctly cleaning up. But it's not "distance". Also, it makes the correct th
