Version control is the only way to manage the temporal dimension of source code Source code does what it does now, and that’s it. When code changes, that’s to be acknowledged in commits, not comments or names “Old”, “legacy”, etc don’t belong unless referring to a foreign API

A quick way to tell if you’re experiencing media psychosis: 1. Go outside. 2. With any screens, print, or photographs out of sight, spin around 360 degrees. Does the subject of your outrage enter your field of view? If no, someone has installed a narrative in your head.

A staggering number of people don’t realize that they live their lives in a base state of outrage about a narrative they’ve immersed themselves in by consuming news media. Words are not violence, but they are frustratingly the substrate of a mass psychosis we can’t easily resist

People en masse are too mentally unwell for violence NOT to emerge when vitriolic messaging encourages them to see the world through the lens of us versus them, moral virtue against evil, divided by lines of identity and memetics.

“What I cannot come to terms with, though, is the modern equation of words with violence. The growing sense of permission that if the disagreement runs deep enough, then violence is a justified answer to settle it.” I agree– “words = violence” is wrong AND may now be unavoidable
"My first instinct was exactly what such people would delight in happening. To watch the rest of us recoil, then retract, and perhaps even eject. To leave the internet for a while or forever. But I can't do that. We shouldn't do that."
