Can't speak for the GP, but I often commit my changes every 3-4 minutes with messages like "Tweaked the padding." Then when my work is in a reasonable state to be viewed by someone else, I'll turn those 5-6 local commits

I disagree. I've worked with people who have written tens of thousands of lines of code, but didn't see anything wrong with throwing a boolean parameter into the mix. It's not that they were bad developers in other ways. It&#

Economically speaking, that isn't true of everyone, particularly those with low incomes and few immediate work opportunities. Sometimes people are money-poor and time-rich, so it makes sense for them to spend time rather than money on

Aside from Tolkien's poetry in-world poetry, my favorite is probably Tennyson. Ulysses in particular is awesome. This is the final stanza. There lies the port; the vessel puffs her sail: There gloom the dark, broad seas. My m

To be fair, that's not a self-contradictory position. It is quite possible that there could be a lack of qualified programmers, while employers are flooded with applications from unqualified programmers. The obvious solution to that pr
