No, you're getting to v1 in the same or more amount of time. I know v3 sounds better, but coding and throwing it away is literally just redoing it. If you're not releasing it, it's not a new version. There's no such th

You're not on v3 lol. You're on v1 that you had to redo three times. If the feature isn't released, it's not a new version.

I honestly don't get it, either. Most of them just flat out can't code at all, but for the ones who can, the only explanation I got is it feels like productivity. I will say, it does help me get over procrastination lol. I get a

I don't know why you're blaming women. Clearly men have failed society and the solution is go back to sending boys to war so only the high value ones survive.
