My mind inserted an 'of' in the title. I thought the article was about doing parallel development without using Git worktrees. Prior to AI, I never used worktrees. Now I use them all the time. I think it's both due to that

Thanks for sharing both an amazing topic - engineering with significant constraints, a great medium - handheld game devices, as well as some wisdom - If you want to make actual progress, try to aim for "good enough".

Looks great! Impressive that it looks so slick and feature complete. It’s been a while since I used iTunes, so don’t fully understand where iTunes today is failing. Can you elaborate?
