I advocate for checking in the auto-generated code. You can see the differences between the tool runs, can see how changes in tooling affect the generated code, can see what might have caused a regression (hey it happens). Sometimes tooling

Doesn't $999.50 buy you at least some "why" behind the "knowing where to tap"? Some tips on diagnostics, some idea why tapping at that spot resolves the issue? Seems like pretty steep price to pay, if you are left w

The opening line "I had to drop out of" frames your whole story with how much not "in control" you are. You are not making decisions, the decisions are being made for you. If you were in control, if you owned your decisi

Seems a lot of these rules focus on removing empty lines. I find empty lines let the code "breathe" a bit. Without them, it's a massive wall of text, sometimes. Well, often times. It's interesting you can address the &qu
