There's a "Curb Your Enthusiasm" episode where Larry David's character donates to a museum with his name on the donation. There's no self deception for him; he wants to do something good AND he wants the credit. And

It lessens it for the author because they're looking for validation from someone in some type of way, the same way the breakfast people do. If you're content being someone that needs validation from other people for your actions,

It's a bit sad that you've taken a wonderful, altruistic act and cheapened it by feeling the need to broadcast it on the internet :(

No, it's not relevant. There's no considering being done, the feature is being shipped. Please stop with the Rust spam.

Nah, there's something unique about Rust zealots in this respect. nicoburns comment is completely off topic, and it's extremely obnoxious to see this kind of thing over and over again from the Rust community. And I even like the

That's unfortunate. Try a different dermatologist? I've gone to flatiron dermatology in the past, and they're solid.

I wish I could upvote this a thousand times. At the end of the day, it's all ego driven development. Nobody wants to think that their job has already been solved, and what's left is mundane and boring [engineering wise]. And so th

Yes, but there at least is some genuine innovation going on. The backend frameworks are just churn for solving the same boring and lucrative business problems in new, fashionable ways.

Obviously you should do what you feel comfortable with, but now is a good time to go the doctor and get that checked out. The numbers are pretty low and stable for the moment. And FWIW, I had surgery last week so I'm not giving advice

I very well could be wrong, but that's almost completely besides the real point [as well the self diagnosis regarding ADHD]. The amount of anxiety you're experiencing in your day to day life is grossly abnormal. I would suggest no

So what? In the history of Python, there was literally 0 bugs caused by print being a statement. Breaking backwards compatibility for shit like that is amateur hour. edit: And just to be clear, I'm fine with making print a function for

Writing some optional, non-essential piece != rewriting a piece that will require taking rust as a dependency for the rest of time. The kernel folks just did a lot of work to remove the strict dependency on GCC. To think any of the big play

Right, which is why it's a poor choice for the kernel at this time.

For the Linux kernel? Absolutely. Rust is way too unstable right now for such an important piece of software. Give it 20 years and a standard, then we can talk.

I wouldn't be too worried about it. The kernel people aren't going to take a dependency on something that isn't standardized and doesn't have a spec.

Sure. My point wasn't really whether to write unit tests or not. It's more, do what works for you / your team to enable you to ship consistently. For the OP, spending all of their time writing tests clearly isn't working

I'm no fan of Amazon, but it's the third most valuable company on the planet. Whatever they're doing is obviously working for them, even if I personally wouldn't want to work there.

Well, then stop! Delete all the tests right now and do it however you want to do it. The thing about testing that never really gets talked about it is, what's the penalty for regressions? What's the consequences if you ship a bug

You can use `go generate` with the AST package and get the same thing.
