there is a whole book “counterexamples in analysis”, basically for each theorem they find why every condition is required. these functions and ideas based on them are indispensable. this weierstrass function is definitely a mind bender I re

yep, an engineer has the power to directly influence the code. This is a strong power. Sometimes just making a PR is enough and a good convincer in and of itself. Use sparingly of course, weigh in time for making the argument, but this is a

I invite you to look at it from from the radical mystic standpoint. Imagine you're in the ancient times looking at your cell phone and seeing this distant galaxy in so much detail. Don't think about the technical details and the l

In the bisubstitution example, I cannot see the difference between the source lemma and the target lemma. It looks like A=>A proof. Am I blind?

how I approached crossing: first practice just crossing your eyes and observing how every object has two images in this case and when you slowly “uncross”, they merge back into one. you can use anything in your surroundings. then for the st

I’ve also thought about that based on the same info, i.e. not reading the source completely. There is a notion of a “Pollyanna mode” in schematherapy. What it means is ignoring negative facts and challenges with an outwardly positive attitu

But opportunity cost might not really turn out to be a real factor. Code is a liability, we only would like to think that our code is worth keeping, but the reality is it drags us down by definition: more code requires more manpower to sup

No I’m not saying therapy should be required, but I do say that we miss it as a society on educational level. I’m not saying I know how to fulfill that. I am in therapy for 2 years now (and not planning to stop for a while), the results I

I firmly believe now that this is a skillset missing in families/cultures that is totally developable in therapy (recognizing own and as a consequence other people’s emotions). This is actually a missing education in my opinion.

Why are you attacking me? I just put some motivation for myself and maybe someone else to switch to an IDE. Is this mandating tools thing a problem where you are working? How did that affect you?

Ehh… not using an IDE is a bridge too far IMO. Be friendly to the casual writer of the code and help them express themselves without having to repeat the obvious. (Yes, I know, we write less time than read, but maybe that is what is actuall
