I don't see many "shit" comments and the whole organ transplant is interesting fore hackers. I did consider using a raspberry pi plus camera cliped to the waste line and a trained ML model to detect problems with peritoneal d

Unlikely that's not how statistics works in production engineering

How large a team I have certainly worked on large scale projects using procedural languages and I don't recall any problems with the required discipline

And having done a fair bit of procedural programming back in the day F77 and PL1/G only the most trivial of programs have every thing as global state.

Heh I have worked on Nuke simulations for a breeder reactor so a mommy bomb and I have written Billing systems in Fortran. And that billing system was very well designed using map reduce back in the early 80's, we did have an actual g

Not Shure that using c++ is going to help with "readable, maintainable code" any more than modern Fortran is. and I suspect they will be writing Fortran in C++
